Check out the links:
Do the links all work? Do they take you where you expect to go?
Are there affiliate links sprinkled all over the site? If so, remind the website owner that it is better to have most of the affiliate links on one page and to direct/link other pages to that page. Google doesn't appreciate affiliate links all over the place.
Has the website owner used Pretty Link or some such plugin to cloak URLs and track hits? Has he/she given the links titles so you can mouse over them to see where you will end up by clicking on the link?
Has the website owner made links to other sites open in a new tab/window so that the reader doesn't go away from the original site?
Now what about comments....

Cheers for this, you really covered absolutely everything. There have been some sites that have been so good, I found it hard to review but you have showed me other aspects to look out for.

Thanks for the great training. I only just discovered the actual Feedback area of the SiteRubix tab on the left (https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/website-feedback) and I love how you have to give TWO reviews, before you can even ask for reviews on your site. I try to review at least 3-4 sites every day as part of my online training. Sarah

I agree totally, Chris. I get frustrated when I get feedback like that (Good Site). I'm asking for feedback because I really need someone else's view on my work! :)

Awesome post! I thought that it really helped me kind of understand what I should be looking for when I am critiquing another person's website. And, yes! Grammar and Misspellings are always something that I find on many users' websites. Your really did a good job of pointing out the small things that could really make huge differences to people's sites. This was definitely a favorite blog post of mine. I definitely made sure to favorite this post as it contained some very eclectic information. I hope other commentators get a chance to see this post, it will really open their eyes and make them think differently about how they critique other people's work here on WA. Fantastic Job :)

Glad you like it.
It's true, they are all small things. But put together, they make a BIG difference!
