Website Review

[sportsfreak]

Hi,

I would be very happy to hear any critique/suggestions on our site which can be found here - www.wettblog.net.

It's a German sports betting website so most of you may not understand the content, still maybe you will be able to let me know what you think of it in general. I have slept rarely the last months because of working on this site (together with a friend of mine) and think I am about to say that the base of the site is finished.

You are free to start bashing me.

Thank you!

Hi Sportsfreak!

Let me give you a short review

First of all overall impression is nice, the main page looks professional.

The things you could improve:

The banners in "Top 3 Sportwetten Anbieter" are little expanded in wide, which doesn't look perfect. Ask your affiliate programs to provide you with banners of proper size or modify the size by yourself. The same for "Top Wettanbieter" - I can barely see the logos of promoted brands (for example I can hardly read "Sportingbet" logo).

The font color for predifined search is the same when the user is typing the text by himself, I can a little improvement here would be great. Also there is a loupe icon in the search form, but there are no icon on "No results page". I guess you may add that icon to main search also

I'll post more feed back if you like my review

Highly appreciated, I will look into it.

Would you guys get rid of the "top 3 sportwetten anbieter" list at the top of the site above the picks? Is it too much?

[Mia Kerr]

The question in topic might have both sides of coin. I guess you'll have to perform some test with some amount of traffic to see how that TOP 3 gets monetized. Attach unique tracking links for them to check that.
That part should have high monitezation rate, because it is placed ATF on the main page -> gets more attention. You can improve it by adding more bonus information and adding more info with links BTF on the review page.

Nice site, plenty of white, and neat looking. Yes, the images need some work. Can't read German but if you have the content well written then hopefully you will do well.

I checked the .de (taken), which I guess is why you didn't go for that ...but if you're interested it looks like the .com is on auction at Godaddy (about $200 by the look of it)

Thank you for the nice words chaumi. The content is actually very well written I d like to think, way better than on many "standard" affiliate sites plus really informative.

Yeah the other extensions were all gone, wettblog is quite a nice domain name actually where I thought I was lucky to grab it for free, means "betblog/bettingblog" in English and then the .net version is 8+ years old.

Thanks again for all the feedback so far.

decent looking site. Good thing it is responsive as well. Good luck

One more thing guys, this is about the speed. I personally feel the site is way too slow and my host keeps telling me its fine (what else should they say obviously...). What do you think?

Thank you very much!

I thought the speed wasn't too bad in central florida.

Even though it didn't snap right in, the page started loading quickly and it came in fast enough to keep my attention.

(always keep in mind, the more plugins you use the more of a hit on speed)
