Please review my website

[bboyspyder]

Hi,

I'd like if someone can review my website - www.onlinebackgammonmoney.com

I am taking any advice and tips - from design, content and sidebar width, font and typography to changing my subscription form and in-content errors. Anything you can think of and that can be good for the future of the site is welcome.

Hi bboyspyder,

The site looks nice, has a manly strong feel about it perhaps due to the colour.

I would suggest that you could add a section (tab) about backgammon rules; this could be helpful for beginners.

All the best!

I would agree, the site looks nice. I haven't played backgammon in years and a quick tutorial of the rules would be nice.

I would also add something for backgammon rules - as I have no idea how to play

I don't know why but for some reason I keep glossing over the text. I think it might be because it's quite large - I edited .custom to 14px and it made it a lot easier to read.

Also where you have the featured backgammon sites - do you need the title 'featured backgammon site' above each one? I would just have one H2 at the top for featured backgammon sites (or 'best backgammon sites' - users are much more likely to search using this term). Or alternatively have different headings for each site - eg: 'best backgammon site for begginers' and best 'backgammon site for bonuses' etc...

The featured backgammon site is hard coded in my template and I will try to change it.

So you think the font is too big?

I used the golden ratio provided by the developer of another wordpress theme - http://www.pearsonified.com/typography/

I'd try 14px to see how it looks.

I already added backgammon rules and will continue adding more of it.

I agree with baldidiot that the font is a little large but I like the layout - easy to navigate through

[bboyspyder]

I already reduced the font to 14px. Is it still large?

Sorry, I was looking at the old version - much better

In the "best backgammon sites" boxes, the left side is too wide. It only needs to be like 25% the width of the right size. I'd also reduce the font-size in this box and increase the line-height for improved legibility and differential from the other text.

The right sidebar sign-up box also needs the spacing tweaked (the block of text is too close to the form, and I'd make the "get now!" button much wider... get now isn't a very good cta in my opinion, either).

Something like this:
