Hey guys,

Currently receiving around 28,000 hits per day and 6-800 uniques. Just re-dione the whole look, added new pages and everything else.

What do you think? If you have any suggestions please do say as i welcome input. I am not too good at graphical type stuff.

The typography could use a little work but other than that, I think it's good.

chris_r · 10 Jul 2010 at 13:22

Do you mean edit it a lot more, bold, italic, colours etc?

I like it, typography needs some work, what I will say though is the index page is too busy.

No, it's as UncleRuckus said, it's just too busy. More whitespace around your content and better line-height would help I think.

Hey,

Could you elaborate please on what you mean by line-height?

Thanks
Chris.

the amount of white space between two lines of text in a sentence. You can alter it in the CSS with line-height: 120%; most websites have it set between 120% - 140%.

It's a wordpress site, so you need to edit the css in the theme, newspaper1392 or whatever it's called...

Also, if it's a wordpress site, why have you not changed the permalinks settings? This will help your seo loads!

chris_r · 10 Jul 2010 at 20:03

oh right, awesome, i will change that tomorrow when i have time. nice one, yeah you guys are right, i actually failed to notice but wow, now you mention it that gap is huge in website terms

Was looking at the permalink settings buddy, but thought what i had was best? What do you suggest? Thanks mate

SEO is vital, the sites becoming quite popular

3dcandy · 10 Jul 2010 at 20:09

day and name I usually use. Then the permalink has the article/post title and date in it for seo.

Ohh I hope you're using a caching plugin aswell...if you use wp-supercahce you can serve up a mobile website easily...

£50 please!

chris_r · 10 Jul 2010 at 22:50

3dcandy · 11 Jul 2010 at 00:29
