Default Please Review My Site...

Hey anybody that wants to review my site, I'd be glad to hear what you have to say about design, ease of use, functionality, and anything else you have to say. The site can be viewed at www.presaleplace.com .

Also, any tips on how to increase pagerank or traffic like where to leave comments and what types of sites to link with would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

I am new to this so can only offer a limited opinion. The site looks good to me, well constructed and easy to follow. I like the FAQ page, being a novice to pre ticket purchases it answered my questions quickly. Not sure about the black boarder though, not a big fan of black, sometimes gives the wrong impression. I always associate it with the Undertaker or heavy metal.

Hope that helps.

Default A few observations

Excellent site. Very well done. No major issues that I see right away.

Personally I don't mind the black, and the black and red look pretty good together, but the header area does come off as pretty dark. The top two sections are too close together in color which causes some eye strain.

Also, even though red and black sound like contrasting colors the word "the" and "place" are also difficult to read. I like the effect around the words somewhat, but I don't think it really works here. Readability is very important. You can read them, of course, but they cannot be read as easily as you should want.

In a similar vein, the bird on the twitter page hardly shows. Perhaps you need to recolor the bird (yellow?).

Some small items. In your popup box for registering to receive notifications there is no padding to the right of the [close] link so it is right against the border. Needs a few pixels spacing.

You have a few other spacing problems. Both page under money making buying and selling have headers with two lines and no line spacing at all it appears. This needs to be fixed.

Your page is lengthy. This is OK with the given content but you should then put a "Return to Top" button at the bottom of the page.

Your copyright date is 2008. This needs to be changed to 2009 or 2008-09.

Extremely catchy name!! I was very inquisitive to discover what the site was all about.


How's business?

How are you getting traffic to the site?

It seems like your content is somewhat shallow and not very rich with keywords.


I did notice that you are having a banner issue in the header.

I like your logo. It's simple and attractive.

Business is good. Gettin traffic more and more through search engines, but also lots of referrals. When you say not rich in keywords what do you mean? Every posts repeats presale password and the event name multiple times and they are repeated again in the tags. Also what is the banner issue you are seeing? Thanks.
