Default No need to be gentle

I'd love to get a few thoughts about my site.

I have part of the site on my broker's provided site (if you see LaneGetsResults in the domain), and the rest of it on my host. Content moves back and forth. I tried to match the looks of the two (since I can't do much editing to the template of the broker's site).

Let it rip.

Hey Lane,

We actually ask that you review a site before submitting yours for review.

Is it really that bad that nobody wants to say?

Hi Lane,

I like the look of your site. It appears 'clean'. I would really try to frame the other sites into yours though if you can. Also your forum uses a completely different color scheme & some may wonder where they've been led to.

I also think that your home page should say something about the area & real estate vs. site updates. Users don't spend much time on a site if they don't like what they first read. It will also help in serps.

Overall I think your site LOOKS pretty good!

I changed the default forum skin to a blue one. I will have to find someone to work on a custom skin to make it look more like the rest of the site.

More?

Hey Lane,

It's a pretty straight forward design. It looks as though it could use some SEO, though. Your contact information looks a little cluttered in the bottom left corner.

The headers on most of the pages are massive... maybe shrink them a bit?

I'd agree with Nick on the forum header. It is a monster. Since you've gone with SMF, why not take them straight into the forum rather than another index page?

Overall a good start though.

Pleased to meet you

Eric
