- It's not easy to navigate on your blog because you don't have a navigation bar. If I visit your single page, I need to hit the back button in order to go back to your homepage.
- I see a scroll bar at the bottom of the page. I guess the length of your sidebar is long.
- Do you have only one article? Because I don't see the rest of them. Maybe you should add 5 articles per pages.
- Your blog is not bad, but I won't stay more than 2 minutes because of the reasons above.
-
-
Not sure I like all the bad stuff about my blog spelled out in public on BC, but since I've critiqued others' blogs here on BC I guess I ought to be humble and accept what others think about my blog too, so go ahead :-) www.kopidunia.com-
- I spent a good time visiting your blog, the only thing I didn't like is the small text font on your left sidebar. I'm sure if you increase it by 1 it will look better!
-
Thx! I will look into that. It is a bit dependent on your screen resolution how "small" it really is but you may be right. I don't want my readers having to squint just to make out what my sidebar says.
-
My resolution is 1028x768 so on a bigger resolution, I will see nuts
-
Mine is 1280 x 1024 and I don't see any nuts :-) OK, I just changed the font but not the size. Should be better now...
-
It's up to you to change it or not. I'm just giving my advices on what I don't like. Anyways your blog look fine
-
-
sure my blog is at www.GatherSuccess.com ..... PLEASE COMMENT!-
- The loading of the homepage is way too long. Maybe you should limit your posts to 5.
- I don't like the subscribe's box and the block Blog status & awards, Everything is out of the place. A little organization will be appreciated!
- Your Make Money Online Today with GatherSuccess's link should not be linked, you refer it to your homepage.
-
-
'kiwipulse' frankly speaking, I logged third time to look for thread that ask to critique.
Look at my blog and say how you feel.
I also urge other members, who have posted in this thread and will be posting, to tell me what you didn't like.
[webreview-milan.blogspot.com]-
- You don't really have a navigation bar, what I see it a tabbed content bar.
- The labels that link to your categories pages is it for the above post or the next post? I can't figure it out.
- There are too many posts on the homepage, limit it to 5-7 posts, so we can reach your sidebar again!
-
-
-
- You have a photoblog which you have lot of pictures on the same page. It affect your loading and that include the huge picture on your background!
- When I click your pictures, it redirect me to your flickr page. I'm not really visiting your blog, but your flickr page! Make it open on a blank page. There are many plugin for photo blog available for wordpress. Check it out!
-
-
thx ! al lot i m making the changes !
-
-
- Your Buzz sponsors banner is stick together, so I see a big banner flashing all over the place. Make some space between them.
- You should organize your sidebar a little bit. For example the long banner of google Adsence. I can see a huge space on the left. You can use a smaller banner. Google have thought about it and its now avaialble!
- I won't say much about your blog, you just started blogging. I wish you a good luck on the blogsphere!
-
-
Take a look at my blog - outpersonals.blogspot.com & speak the truth-
- 1,2,3,4,5,6.. I'm not counting the sheeps jumping over me. I'm counting the loading time that take me to load all your posts!
- There are too many things on your sidebar that when I try to scroll down, it froze my navigator for 10 secondes. Are you trying to crash my computer?
- Limit your post to 5 on your homepage, also if you have too many stuff on the sidebar then you should up for a 3 column theme!
-
-
mine please at lacsonplanet.blogspot.com-
- It look like hundred of blogspot that I visited until now. Nothing special to say. Maybe make your blog look a little bit unique?
-
-
'vickyonfire' congiure your blog for three column templte. To get one visit my blog.
-
-
- I really don't know what is your latest post, it's separated on so many categories!
- If I scroll down the page, I see more thing in your sidebar than the right side. It Should not be normal for a blog.. What do you think?
- Ah finally I found your latest posts..at the bottom of the page! Hurra!
- Center your stuff on the sidebar because I don't like to read it as a text. -
-
Well Matt I guess all of the success you've had in marketing sites could be improved by setting up your site better :-)! LOL! LMAO! I wonder what Kiwi would think about John Chow's site! This review is really funny! -
very true, it's higgledy-piggledy

Positive and Successful Life, motivational, inspirational, personal development, self-help, success, self-development, confidence, life style, positive thinking, leadership, relationship tips-
- I see feedblitz email box and feedburner email box. Have you decided which one to choose yet?
- Your post "Carnival of Inspiration and Motivation: Fifth edition" is too long! Are you trying to win the longest post? You should put a more tag!
- Your blog is lack of design, a header banner okay but the rest stay a white page. Also change the black text on your header banner. I can't read it
- Your "Most Popular Posts" on the sidebar need more space. You should put it on the right side! -
Thank you Kiwi,
I am thinking of using the feedburner. But, I can';t customize the feedburner form.So if I can do so, I definitely will be using feedburner.
I am also thinking of decreasing the lenth of post especially when publishing the carnival edition.
-
-
Well Kiwi, It looks like you're gonna be bogged down with all these people asking you to check their blogs. But I'm gonna put mine here anyway. Let me know what you think.

- I don't see anything I don't like. Great blog!
-
-
Hi, yep...maybe you'll find a lot you don't like about and help me make it likeable...hm-hm...but be gentle, please....this is my 1st tryout blog, so.... be gentle...please..
gratcianulis.blogspot.com-
- I can't read your posts, its not in English. So I will say nothign about it.
- Too many stuff on the sidebar, but overall the loading seem okay!
- Just limit your post to 5-7 post on your homepage.
- The second picture on your "What Time Is It?" need more pixel.
- Take off the Bloggers Unite! 12.17.07 is last month! Are we still in 2007? -
Wow, thank you! Thank You!
-
-
-
- First I think a 4 column is too much. Do you really need a 4 column? You have lot of room in your right sidebar.
- Well Your left sidebar need to be center.
- Change the color of the text on the right sidebar. Something more light svp.
-
-
Hi kiwi.. you're doing great on your first impressions What are your impressions about the new network template I've been placing? It could be any of the BattlingForHealth.com blogs ... (this just aggregates all the posts automatically)
Notwithstanding the content .. see anything that could be improved with the template // thanks.-
I forgot to convert the Hearing, MS, and Schizo blogs .. I'll probably get around to doing that this weekend. it's been taking time, adding unique codes and scripts to each template.
-
- I don't like the purple color on your sidebar link. It tell me "Don't click on it or something will happen to you".
- I don't like the feedburner stat at the bottom of the page, it seem not important to you that I subscribe to your blog.
- Can we have a navigation page? I don't know how to come back to the homepage. Is it the end of the visit? Something tell me "You are stuck on this page if you want to be free again. Close this page..Do it".
-
-
It seem I have no more blog to review, I will do it tomorrow. You are welcome to add yours!
-
-
- It's hard to tell, its a very simple blog. The post is too long, but you don't have much content. So it doesn't affect the loading.
-
lol...I do have the tendency to post long entries but there's over 10 months of content there.
-
-
- That's interesting about the purple, that didn't occur to me (I just matched the content link colors)
- Feedburner .. I know, I know - 5 subscribers looks lame I've been debating on moving these to a central page for my secret viewing pleasure.
- The navigation is at the top of the page. You can jump to any blog at any time from any where. Clicking on the HART-Empire head or the title of the blog always gets you to the home page. I thought that was obvious with how all blogs in the world should be. // I do need to improve my 404 error page. Right now I put a cartoon, and was thinking of linking up links to popular posts, posts made 1 year ago today, related entries, etc ..
Thanks for quick review! I value your opinion and will at least start with the sidebar purple reconsideration and css. Maybe rename "Site Pages" to "Navigation" and add a link to the home/start page too.-
I see now, I though first the navigation on the top is link to your blog network. Yeah make your page more friendly. I'm nuts when I visit a blog, I don't want to deal to figure out where is everything

www.shankerbakshi.com-
- I don't like the content on your footer. There are enough room to put it on your sidebar, why choose to place it at the bottom?
- Too much google ads on the sidebar, I hope for you that people click on it for putting there!
-
-
Please tell me your thoughts. beinki.blogspot.com-
- It took me 15 secondes to load only your sidebar. So I can guess you have too many stuff loading at the same time.
- I don't feel to read your posts because its too short.
-

Majik's Thoughts
- I don't like to see the stuff on the sidebar, organize it to make it look more attractive.
- The blog look simple, I guess you just started blogging.
Majik's World
- It look better than Majik's Thoughts, but you have only one post per page. I don't like to click Older Posts everytime to see your latest posts.
- I don't like the large google ad at the end of the page. Make it fit the page.
- You need to organize the sidebar too. -
Thanks for your thoughts on both of my blogs. I've only been blogging for almost 4 months. I've been trying to organize the my sidebars, can't quite figure out what would work best, any suggestions?
-
The best advices I can give you, try them all! Every blog is different, some can work for your blog and some not.
-
Okay, I've made some changes, not a lot but some, hope you'll come back in the future to check them out. Thanks again!
-
-
I have two blogs. Hope you'll check both of them
spaceofreality.blogspot.com
entry4cash.blogspot.com-
spaceofreality.blogspot.com
- You blog looks fine, there are just too much ads on the sidebar.
entry4cash.blogspot.com
- I don't like to see all the google ads, I can feel that you made this blog only for make money with adsense.
- I don't see any recent post widget on your sidebar, so I will not stay more longer than 2 minutes.
-
-
mine please (^^,)
spicyartinfridge.blogspot.com/ fresh from blogger
and the old one
chroniclesoftrisna.blogspot.com/ d^_^b-
spicyartinfridge.blogspot.com
- First, I will close my navigator right away when I heard music on a blog. It annoy me and can't concentrate reading your posts.
- I can see your a fan of BC I see all their widgets. You should center all the stuff on the sidebar. Also remove the one that you don't need or give you any good results.
- I don't like to see the small google ads on the top of the post. Make it bigger and blend it with the design.
chroniclesoftrisna.blogspot.com
- Much better than your previous blog, but here again. The music make me want to dance than reading your post.
- Center the stuff on your sidebar. Also remove the counter at the bottom. It flash my eyes.
- I don't like to look at the pictures in your post, its not clear. You should resize it with photoshop.
- I don't like the flashing ads at the bottom.
- It up to you to make those changes. But take off the music plz -
Thank you for checking out my blog
-
-
-
- The loading of your sidebar is too long, too much stuff. Clean it a little bit.
- I don't like the square bar above your navigator bar. Is there anything that should show because I see nothing than a blank bar.
-
-
Give me your best shot
urikalish.blogspot.com/-
- Too many posts on the homepage. It affects your loading because you use pictures.
- You don't have a navigation bar, so its not user friendly!
-
-
Rip it up. And the rest of you too if you like, but send it in message as this is Kiwipulse's game.
www.ablogaboutnothing.com-
- The blog is lack design. They are many theme out there. Choose one more attractive. i won't say much, the blog is quite simple with some thing there and there.
-
-
-
- The blog is not in English, so you really looking for international visitors. Can I leave now?
- The background is black with a white font. Are you trying to make me blind?
- Center your stuff on your sidebar!
-
-
My blog is just a blog.-
Ok roger that!
-
-
-
- Well you have been blogging since 2005, have you learn anything from all those years?
- The blog is lack design, but you writing can be compensated.
- Your sidebar doesn't attract me to click on it.
-
-
-
- The design is simple, I like it when its clean.
- After reading all your posts on your homepage, which took me 5 minutes. I became a more thoughful person. To be frank with you, I won't visit your blog daily because I don't know when you posted your latest post. I guess its a blog talking about your thought which is not a bad thing. I'm not really a fan of those kind of blogs.
- I won't critique much about your blog, because there are nothing much. -
Interesting. I thought that by removing the dates, I might get more participation instead of less, especially on older posts. It seems that people are only interested in new posts, I reasoned that by removing the dates, I might get equal interaction on old and new posts. Thanks for the review.
-
-
Since you seem to have run out of blogs, here is another one by me:
neobluepanther.com
And Thank you for checking out my blog earlier!-
- I don't like the search bar on the top of your widget. Its out of the place.
- I have nothing else to tell about your blog. Everything else looks fine!
-
-
-
- Well, the design is dark and futurist. If the text could be more light, White for example. I will be more enthousiast to read your post. The yellow link attract me too much and I can't focus on your post.
-
-

As for your blog:
-Overall great design. Looks very friendly.
-Header is just a bit plain. -

Hi, I'm surprised at your comment:
Kiwipulse?
- The blog is not in English, so you really looking for international visitors. Can I leave now?
For simonjjames.blogspot.com/
Are your browser wrong or something? Can you elaborate?
Thanks,
Simon-
hehehe, I have probably mixed up with 2-3 blogs when I did this review.
-
-
hehehe here i am techtreak.com dont say about loading coz i know its too slow
Thanks in advance
bytheway your blog also loads too slow man! maybe due to the images try to compress your css file it may help a bit!-
I won't compress my pictures, I can afford it with my dedicated server.
The loading is okay in Firefox, in IE is crazy I know but 95% of my visitors use firefox. Why should I change it.
Maybe I should switch my pictures to another server only for pictures.. anyway 3-4 secondes on the loading is not that bad. -
i said tocompress your css n not the pictures
-
how do you compress the css?
-

I have a bunch of blogs about my new life in Brasil. It would be great to get some comment on what you think of them. My blogs come in English and in Portuguese. However the Portuguese translations are not complete.
Check out my blog "A List of our Blogs about Brasil" at

Pick any blog, even this one, and comment. I am really partial to some of them such as The Great White Bear and Canadian Brasilian Recipes.

How About if I answer your Quarry - Can I KIWI ?
Your Blog Header is not conventional one - I have not come across a header like this in recent time - So that can give a disadvantage and onlooker may consider it as a big Google AdSense Ad on the right though its a Site name Header. Can you do anything about it. Everything else is fix beautifully.
