    Hi
    You got ads right at the top of the homepage remove them instead showcase your content.use text ads they work better and blend in. I would get rid of the date n text at the top and move your menu their. Now you need to decide what keywords you are targeting then build quality content around it

    Thanks for your suggestions, fix menu and it's on top now on right side of date. Planning to use text ads instead of display ads in coming days. As far as contents are concerns about we are posting unique contents.

    What problem does the site help to solve? I'd guess the two biggest questions will be "which tablet should I buy?" and "where can I get it cheapest?".

    From what I can see your site answers neither of these questions. The 'Best tablets' menu is where I expected to find help with the first question, but it's just a list of tablets with no real guidance. And when I do get to a specific tablet page, there are no prices, and no links to retailers.

    You need to be more focussed IMHO, you'll never compete as a broad tablet/technology site, so concentrate on addressing a specific need.

    HTH.

    Thanks for your suggestions! Yes, you are right initially in starting I have to concentrate on addressing a specific need. Let me start working over it and try to improve things.

    Hi

    You need to remove the ads below the menu. Value for readers before adverts

    Your site is much cleaner now and more user friendly. I would also look at merging the menus.

    You got tablet news etc in the top left hand corner remove them add them to the navbar below. So you have a consistent navbar.

    The site has no real "wow factor" imo.

    Add some images to the pages for a start.

    If you want to make a site people will like and wont bounce off of you're a long way from it atm I'm afraid

    The information (if it's any good, can't be bothered to read it) isn't displayed in an engaging manner.

    Could do with some flashy charts/graphs/infographics etc

    There are a lot better ways to deliver information than plain text on it's own.

    Also I quite like video reviews.

    One of the problems with this site is it looks like you have all of your content crammed into the home page, and its obviously all feeds, News feed, Product feed,.etc

    The first big block of text should be on its own page - About Tablets

    The news should be on its on page - News (BTW news feeds like this doing nothing for your SEO as there are a million and one others sites displaying the exact same information you are better off writing your own unique news on a blog attached to the site.)

    It looks poor, you have no logo, no hookline, no USP, I would never even consider buying a tablet through a site that looked like this, and I doubt anyone else would either.

    Good luck

    It's boring and the design is not attractive at all, there is way too much on the front page with all the scrolling...

    I wouldn't buy anything here, it looks spammy/scammy. Sorry! You need a complete re-design.
