Authoring & Writing Content

Can someone check out my site so far. I'm working hard on the content but if you could give me a fly though and some feedback it would be very much appreciated.

Hi Tony, by way of feedback, the language is very userfriendly, I could not find the place to leave comments at the end of the post, maybe I missed it. All I can add is a 6th step to say either give feedback to Tony or invite him for coffee or is that not allowed?
Well done and good luck

Good for you mate well done :-)

A few tips that might help you on your journey

1 - turn off all comments on pages where you don't want feedback i.e the home page

2 - there is a lot of black space on the left >> pretty sure that is a widget area so you should look at putting some stuff in there to fill it out a little...the following link will give you some guidance on how to set the structure up effectively to guide your readers to the parts of the site you want them to go to.

This is the live demo so you can see what it is you are aiming for from the design

3 - given your topic I question whether the theme you are using will do the job for you as it was developed for "image and multimedia rich" content. Yes you have videos which is awesome BTW but I think maybe your content would suit more of a "techie" or "news" style but just a suggestion my friend :-)

4 - use pages sparingly :-)

It seems you have your "Upgrades" section of the site as pages not posts >> you may want it this way not sure but at the moment there is not real way to get to your actual "posts" unless I click on the category

Personally I would only have your About | Contact | Privacy | Home | Blog as pages and make your "Upgrades" as the main category for your blog >> WHY >> because your entire site is based around upgrading computers / memory / video cards etc etc

That way you can expand out your categories as your site develops and keep the main navigation structure nice an clean

Hope that makes sense if not shoot me a PM and I will help you structure it :-)

Thank you for the excellent advice. i make a copy of it so i can follow it.i tried to find a word press theme for computers but the editing is limited.i put you in my followers if you don't mind. the theme is customer support if you have any links.

Your very welcome thanks for the follow.

I noticed you changed the theme -- looks 10000% better a lot cleaner don't you think ?

not sure I understand what you mean by this "the theme is customer support" ? is that the name of the new theme ?

You should also be aware the current theme has the following links in the footer

Powered By Facebook Traffic | Best Brain Supplements | Ready Made Business Cards

If these are your links then no problem >> if not i would try and remove them.

I've been taking you advice and it has been a break through that i needed. Thanks. I'm still trying to pep up my home page.Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hey now were getting some good structure my friend well done.

Let's take it to the next level...

Send me a PM and I'll jump into your site and tidy a few things up for ya rather than me posting them here if you like.

I just checked it out and left you a comment. It is looking pretty good what I would suggest would be add images to separate the information on your pages and flesh out your writing a bit. Right now it is all text but if you could add some relevant images it would make it a bit more aesthetically pleasing. I do love the color scheme though! Hope this helps.

Thank you, I'm trying to do something with my home page. I have changed it since you last saw it, maybe you can check it out again.If you have any suggestions for images let me know thanks again.

Is there a side bar widget or something im missing?im using commision junction and im getting no results when putting my code in the text box.

yes i have ad-blocker. i didn't even think of that. Thank you so much. I'm probably gonna check it out then figure how to let WordPress through.

Ad Blocker running?

You need to add a text widget to your side bar. There will be a place to add code in the widget. Nice subject for your site.

Thank you i will try it.

i am trying to upload a theme for my website and i keep getting the error that i am exceeding ini.php max which is set to 2 mb. I need more and just watched a video and was wonderi

I have been unable to make this work here with WA hosting. I have done this with other hosting by installing a corrected php.ini file.

Support is looking into this for me right now. Perhaps they will be able to provide a solution.

Thank you, its stopping me from uploading a theme i want to use that i purchased and i don't know if there's any way around it.

There is a way around it. But I haven't been successful with it on WA hosting.

There is no cpanel for WA - you will have to use FTP
