[i]Will some one review both of my blogs I'm trying to get traffic to both of them NOW. I'm still working on my first one. http://incomegenie.blogspot.com ( my first one)
I had seen your site. To be honest your site had too much of affiliate link. At the moment I see your site. I feel like leaving.
I would suggest that you first build good content at your blog then bring traffic to your site so then through your content then slowly introduce your affiliate materials. Not introduce all over your site.
Hi Lovely,
Looks as though the Income Genie blog has been deleted, so I could only take a look at the other blog.
The layout is easy, and I like how you integrated the advert above your first post. It's not intrusive, but the ads aren't very targeted. If it's a business/marketing blog, why am I seeing adverts for end tables and purses?
In the side column, you're promoting an affiliate product, but the graphic is poor quality. Check to see if there are any better graphics for that product, and replace it. Another thing that struck me was the lack of an "about you" section. It instantly made me think, "Who is this person and why should I trust the recommendations?"
Scrolling down the page, there's another banner in the side column that's being cut off. If the message is lost, why will someone click on it? I'd recommend finding a different graphic that fits or creating a new one that fits (it looks as though it's only text).
Good job for your first blogs though and good luck for the future.
There do seem to be A LOT of banner ads in your blog. Banner ads tend to have a lower conversion rate when compared to text ads, and when there are so many on the page, one tends to lose focus and shut their mind off to advertising.
You're making recommendations within your blog entry. Consider talking about some of the products you'd like to promote, talk up the benefits, and throw in some text links within your blog posts.

Thanks Dave for your comment. I used Banners to let the people know what the products are. I guess I'm thinking IF they actually see what the product are and what they are for they will click it. VS an text link For the same product. That's why I have a mixture. I have more text links then banners. I am new to this blog thang and I'm hoping I will get it right sooner then later.
I will work an the posting too. Thanks for all your ideas.

Hey I want to tell you thank you for looking at my blogs. The URL for income genie was changed to better fit what' on the blog. the url is http://shopzones.blogspot.com
I will take a closer look at my blog and make the changes. I think I see everything you spotted. The reason I put the "shopping ads" there. I tried to think of my visitors of taking care of "their" needs, A little mixture. That's MY thinking. I'm new to it and just trying to come up with stuff for my visitors. I will put my "about ME" section back on it. Thanks for everything.
