SITE REVIEW: www.allfreechips.com

Ok no need to pick on my colors! (I like them)

What I really want input on the the flow and SEO coments. I created the portal from scratch, and I am learning more about SEO every day so the site was not built around SEO as much as it was useability.

I welcome any comments and suggestions you may have.

Thanks

I think I have burnt a hole in my retina.

Its ok I suppose, not really into gambling myself but the info supplied is easy enough to follow. The text at the bottom is rather small though.

I know you said you like the colours, but what if your users don't, yes its your site, but you have created it as a portal for others. If they don't like it, that may cause them not to use it at all.

You better use .css instead, for example, “<font size="-2">” or "<h1 align="center">" and so on.

Topic has been unlocked. Reviews may resume.

Enjoy!

I'm with Enigma ... it's a bit bright .. but yeah it's your site and you can do as you please. Other than that it has enough links for a gambling addict to go broke

Is there a reason that Css would be better other than ease of change at a later time? I just started with css about a month ago to get it where it is today and I plan on finishing it off over time.


Question I have is, do all the outbound links hurt my site? I have them going to a re-direct and thought i should have an index no follow on the re-direct page if that would help. I noticed google cached almost all the re-directs, ie my url with the casinos title and page.

In terms of SEO, the site certainly has enough text to get its keyword in there, but it doesn't look like you have many text links, which will be important if you're going to use Google. Other than that, the site looks like a gambler's portal indeed.

I agree in that the text at the bottom is too small. The site is too busy for me, although I don't gamble. I do like the forum, and found it to be like a breath of fresh air.

Overall I enjoyed it. I figure if I gambled I would be broke by now.

I promise I won't pick on your colors, but they are a bit awkward

From an SEO point of view you need to find out what keywords people are using when they're looking for a site like yours. Do they actually use the phrase "all free chips" or do they use "free chips". I'm not sure but this is very important to you. A good way of finding the right word is to use Google Adwords. Enter some of the words that you think people use and let Google Adwords suggest some others.

Good luck, I really like the info on the site.

um.. its ok.. to much green i think, and the table in the middle stands out a bit to much

apart from that its ok...

Thanks for the comments everyone, I may look into toneing it down a little after I get it caught up on the seo stuff..

Everything is so cluttered and yellow and too many advertisments and... I think my eyes just lost their virginity. But it's not that bad. Just needs some organizing like different sections etc.

Sorry mate, but the colour chosen is very straining for the eyes. I suggest you use a white, instead of yellow. I think you should spread out your layout and everything on your page. Nice banner/logo but try to choose maybe two or three colours and stick with it. Well done otherwise, keep up the good work!
