All that stuff that makes the website look cool

At this moment my website laptop-comparison.com looks very bland with only white background and writing in black. But I saw so many cool websites here, where there were black backgrounds, search options, different backgrounds with pictures used to make the website look so cool. I am wondering when I am going to learn all that as well. Hopefully in the coming lessons or may have to teach myself.

Any recommendations on how to make the website look cool with all these add on's.

As far as success is concerned I am happy to have created my own website, written content on it and also got encouraging feedback. Need to do a lot more on content though. Have got ideas for lot of other niches but waiting to see how this goes and make some money before getting in to more of it.

It reads like if the lesson outline is followed with relative questions asked then success and the money will follow.

Is the site just parked right now?

That is correct Jeannine. Thank you for your interest!

Hi Alex
I want to see more action, 1 website, and one blog
in one month I have seven websites and 6 blogs
there is a problem with the themes so I stick to twenty 17
and first I create a menu then off you go.
best of luck now go for it.

Thanks for the encouragement John!

went to check out your site at laptop-comparison.com and came back with a message site could not be reached, did you abandon the project? was going to give you some pointers and suggestions. Let me know would love to check it out.

Thanks a lot for you support Carl. I believe that could have happened as I did not update the address to https. But I have updated it now and should work. Thanks once again. Cheers!

Congrats Alex, for going premium and for posting your first blog within Wealthy Affiliate. Well done and to be continued.

To your success,
Desmond

If you'll have too much going on your website it will make your clients lose focus.

It is better to have a white background.
But what you are saying above is all about theme choosing. If you want to try, just choose a black background theme.

Don't use time on fancy designs. As some other guys put it, they are distractions.

You want to set focus on the mission of your site and make it as clear as possible.

As a rule of thumb, any "design" changes you make should further clarify the purpose of your site.

Content, content, content, it's all that matters. You could put pictures of poop in your sidebar widget, as long as your content and mission is clear and you would be successful (don't do it :D)

Keep going!

I like the look of Your website very much. It's clean and very good to read. Try enhancing the functionality first and get back to the design later... That's my advice. For example the picture on Your "Reviews" page is not readable due to way too small size.

Keep up the good work!

Do you know what? All those things are mere distractions. The cleaner you can have your website the better it will be. However a search box is very useful see if you have the options in your header. Dashboard/appearance/header

Hey thanks a lot for that advice Catherine. Really appreciate you replying to my post so quickly. This really helped!

Alex really a clean website is far more important than the functionality because it's not busy and it doesn't distract the readerWith the relevant bells and whistles
