Week 5... And Moving Forward
I've even squeezed in a few more lessons from Course 3. I'm now up to the one where you have to apply for an Adsense account so I thought I would spend a bit more time on my site and fill it with more content before making an application... don't want to get rejected :(
This is my site so far and I would love it if you could give me some feedback... good or bad, please be as critical as you wish, I am here to learn.
I personally, don't like this theme any more, it is too narrow but I daren't change it as apart from what I have learned here, I am clueless with Wordpress:

Looks Good Debbie, I've only just turned premium so not greatly experienced. However looking from a non marketing point I thought there was lots to look at and was easily lead around your site. clicking plenty of interesting links. Yes a wider content block would look better and perhaps be easier to read. Also the title might fit in the space provided rather than extending into the graphic.
But well done I hope my sites look as good after such a short time.
You know I never even noticed about the title but you are quite right. Yes I am definitely going to change the theme but it might be a bit of a slow process as I am clueless with Wordpress, other then what I've learned here so will have to tread very carefully.
Many thanks for your input, it is appreciated.
Hi Debbie, great work on your site. Posts are very informative even for people new to the topic. I agree with lost of the other comments about the theme. Much too narrow and makes reading a bit hard.
I would lose the comments section on both your About Me and Privacy Policy pages - no need for them there...
Keep up the good work and congratulations on the site so far.
Have left you a comment. Feel free to comment on my site if you wish ......
Good point about the comments on the About Me and Privacy pages, I will look into removing them (if I can find out how).
And will definitely change the theme at some point.
Many thanks for your valued input
PS Found out how to remove comments, so have taken care of my About Me and Privacy Policy pages :)
No problem.
Ref comments. In your site dashboard, go to pages - all pages.. Under each page you should see 'quick edit'. If you click it will see an 'allow comments' box with a tick in it. Un-tick and job done....Don't forget to update.
Hi Debbie. I know you're really reluctant to change your theme but I would really advise you do so. It's not doing you any justice whatsoever. I suggest you set up a dummy test site in siterubix then you can play around with different themes. I have one that I can test different things on rather than messing about with my main site.
The reason why I think you should change your theme is because the design is just too narrow and your font is too small. It also means that your images are too small and not making the impact they should. It will lose you visitors which is a shame because it's a good site! :) Beverley
Totally agree with you Beverley but I didn't dare change anything in case I lost settings etc.
However, a great suggestion about setting up a siterubix site to experiment with, I will definitely do that.
Many thanks for your input, greatly appreciated
Your website looks terrific! You've obviously put in a lot of work on it.
Like you, I've been pretty unproductive the last couple of weeks, but I'm looking to start the new week with a new determination and move forward. We'll do it together!
Can't deny it Randi, I have put a lot of work/effort in. All this content writing doesn't come naturally and it takes me a whole day usually just to do one page/post.
Yes so do I and I found it so effective so that's what inspired me. I generally do a 16/8 fast daily, ie have my evening meal before 7 pm then don't eat again until 11 am/12 noon. Then if I put on a bit of weight (quite a regular occurrence as I have a very sweet tooth), then I do a couple of reduced calorie (500 cals) fast days and that generally shifts the excess weight in no time.

Looks good to me, except for the teensy tiny type. I had to really struggle to read it. Could be my screen. Not sure. Did you get your adsense account?
Totally agree, I will be changing the theme, just need to find one first, oh yes, then figure out how to change it! I haven't applied for my Adsense account yet, I thought I would add a bit more content first as I didn't want to get turned down
