Default MY SITE IS DULL !!!

I am somewhat new to the website world but have a little bit of experiance with HTML. I have a free site so cut me some slack. My site drives people away with its tacky colors and fonts and Unorganization of pages. i need to get pointed in the right direction and some thoughts on what to do with it.
I think i should do away with the home page and go straight to the point.
i am kind of a noob and want to learn how to make the pages change in the same frame.

MY SITE IS http://snowrider.2hell.com

ANY INPUT APPRECIATED
THANKS

Hi and welcome xcsnowrider,

Your site dull? Quite the contrary. LOL In fact, I think it's too busy. The problem is you are trying to do too much. You need to decide what you want to focus your content on and stick with that. It's much harder to drive traffic to a site when it's on a variety of different topics.

Choose one topic and promote products that relate to it. For example, I noticed you have an HTML tutorial on there, you could expand on that concept and only offer a site that has to do with building a website.

The problem is, you have too much going on so the search engines would never rank you high for any keywords because your content is all over the place.

You need to decide the kind of audience you want to target and then build your content around that. You've got a lot of good ideas, you just need to focus your attention on one of them.

I agree with that. You can loose a lot of traffic with entry pages.

As Lisa said, choose a niche topic and then make sure your audience can see precisely what your site is about at a glance.

I think the colors are okay depending on what topic your site is about. Those colors seem to appeal to the younger, sporting, gaming crowd.
