Hi fellow web babblers,

Please review my website How to make a website

I explain the stages from conceptualization, planning to monetization in making a website.

Thank you

Great site. Lots and lots of good, organized information.

OK this is where I get picky...

One thing that really stuck out to me was those testimonials on the first page. When I see those and there is no e-mail or website address attached, I assume the person made them up and the site loses credibility in my eyes because it's saying to me the site either gets no traffic or no one has ever really sent any testimonials. To me it gives the site a very amateurish feel.

I'm not saying that yours are fake because they may indeed be real, but I'm just suggesting that you only add testimonials with website addresses attached. Otherwise they don't look authentic.

I love how you broke down the steps, especially in your conceptualize section. Great job overall!

Thanks for the review. I really appreciate it.

The testimonials was genuine and I got it from my feedback form. Unfortunately the webmasters did not give their website addresses

Nice site. I'm viewing your site in Firefox and your logo reads "How to Make A" The word "Website" seems to be missing.

In Internet Explorer (7.0) it says "How To Make A Website | Home"

In Firefox, it says "How To Make A" and then I see "Website | Home" underneath the header navigation bar. It's in white, so it kind of blends with the background, and of course it's out of place...

When I am working on my website, I usually take a look at both IE and Firefox... they look different sometimes, and for some things, I can never get them to look exactly the same.

Who knows what my website looks like in other browsers (Netscape, Safari, etc)... I kind of don't want to know

Gotta love browser differences... I hope it's not too hard to fix, Lajocar.

Whoops, I got all caught up in the header fiasco and forgot to say that your website looks great. Good job. Lots of good information, tips, and resources... all in an easy-to-find and organized fashions.

Thanks, I will try to fix that.
