Hi Wendy.
Well done for getting your site off the ground. You write very well.
My problem is that I wasn't sure which is your home page - is that the link you gave to the energy drinks? The reason why I said this - it was a problem to me that I actually wasn't sure what you're site was about. -
I really like your title - own your own destiny - and the strap line - don't let life push you around - but I couldn't immediately relate that to starting my own business. For example on your page getting ready ....you say
"If you are serious about attempting an online business or, for that matter, an online presence of any kind outside of your normal social page interactions there are a few things I suggest you do to get prepared and to help keep you organized and focused....."
But hold on a sec - I didn't even know that's what your site is all about - so it seems a bit abrupt. (People won't necessary go to your about you page to read )
So I think somehow you need to make it clearer what a reader will gain from your site.

Hi, Beverly!
The page I was asking for a review on was obviously a scam report however, until you pointed it out, I didn't think of the fact that anyone landing on that page thru a link might not get the gist of the site without visiting my home page. Although I may think it's cool that you can click on the banner to get there I see now that a visitor may not find it because I don't have it listed in the menu.
Thank You Very Much for your candor! It's advice like this that will help newbies like me find & fix the flaws in their sites that may make them confusing or uninviting to other visitors.
I look forward to learning more from you & others here WA in the future!
Nice site! there is one thing I noticed when I click the image "start " it opens another tab, not unless your promoting something in there you might at as well make it not clickable making sure your readers stays at your site. I hope this help:)
Thank you for the feedback!
Were you talking about my header/banner? I have that set up to go to my home page if you click it. Hope that's what you're talking about because, yes, I would like them to stay on the site - unless of course they're coming here to sign up!
Ask people to leave you a relevant comment on your site about the content and then provide their suggestions here. Helps with showing activity on your site.
Wow that`s cheeky. Nice job point that out. As a website owner, you should include some links to relevant areas of your site though. As it is, you provide value but get nothing back besides comments.
Yeah, I realized after I published that I didn't include a 'want to know how it's really done' section on that page & 1 other one. heading back to update now. Thanks for the feedback!!
Good job. Never heard of it before, but wiring money is always the flag for a scam anymore in this world. (Unless it is to someone you know lol)
Thanks, Skyhorse!!
Keep us posted on your college adventures! I'd love to hear the feedback you get from the professor!

Looking for reviews & advice!
Hi Wendy, I like the template you are using. I agree with previous comments that you should work on the navigation issues, it was fairly confusing to find my way around. Good luck with going forward with it, I left a comment on the article :) Regards, Paul
Hi, Paul!
Thank you for both the comment on my website & the honest review here at WA. I'm a bit confused by the navigation comment. Somebody else mentioned it & sent me a link but the link was blank & I haven't had a response back yet. Anything specific I need to know about? Maybe I'm missing it because I put the site together & know my way around...
