Well... you asked, so here goes.
The yellow text is really hard to read on the brown background on your home page. Your inner pages that are plain old black on white look a lot cleaner. I think the deep 3D header and the scrolling message make the site look dated.
There are a ton of really nice, clean modern FREE templates out there you could use. Here are several resources:

You asked about the navigation. I feel the topics are way too scattered and you would have more luck marketing if you focused on one area. Trying to cover free hosting, tech news, real estate and so many things that don't go together can throw the engines and your visitors off. All those subjects each by itself are very competitive and trying to cover them all well may be spreading yourself too thin. See if you can come up with a niche that isnt already being marketed to death. A different angle or focus on a specific demographic or something.
I also agree with everything Cherryie said. Cherryie, thanks for jumping in with your feedback.
