  1. Basically I’d just like some honest feedback on my layout and format, I feel it’s works ok for me at the moment, but wondered if others felt the same, is it easy to navigate etc, aesthetically pleasing? And is my content up to scratch?

    Please, I welcome all comments. Thanks. 🙂

    1. 1. Reduce the clutter.
      – Share icons can be simplified with just the icons.
      – Sidebar is very busy you can reduce the clutter there as well such as you twitter feed can be replaced by a simple link to your account
      – your image on the top of your sidebar confuses me, why is it there?
      – the share and likes don’t need to be seen from the first page, I’d go with the option where it’s on the post only page
      – Your sidebar needs work. I think this is the major area that is distracting viewers form your main content.

      2. Your header is simple and bare to the bones. I think it’s good. I’d keep it. You’re not wasting anything and it’s very less-is-more.

      3. Your menu – you kept it simple. That’s a good thing.

      4. Does your theme allow for footers in the layout? If so, then transfer some of your sidebar items to it. This will also help reduce the clutter.

    2. Hey,

      Firstly, I am a complete newbie to this. I’m here asking myself the same questions, though I’m a day old fledgling so I am not brave enough to ask other people to comment yet!

      But as you asked…
      + the content.
      + the posts/ pages are easy to navigate.
      – visually it’s an assault on the senses – there is a lot going on! Alignment, colours, boxes…

      Best of luck with it all.

    3. I agree with Marie – the sidebar does seem overloaded with a lot of stuff. But I like how you have the different categorizations of writing up at the top, which is easy to navigate and get to whatever the reader likes. For my tweets, I decided to show only the last one. And I chose to put blogroll as a a separate category, instead of in the sidebar as a community with icons. But I think layout and format really depends upon the type of blog. Mines writing-heavy and yours seem more photo-oriented. Good luck in any case!

  2. I’ve been told my blog is confusing. People don’t know what I’m targeting. Trust me, sometimes I’m not so sure myself. I’m like the Mini-Wheat blogger. Am I a sweet tasting treat or a healthy food? I have no clue what my niche is or should be and I’m all over that place.

      I also love the images you’ve posted.

      I take the approach in my blog that I write about what I feel like, when I feel like it. Perhaps you could put different topics into pages – that’s what I have been told I should do next but I haven’t had time yet…

      More importantly – do you like your blog the way it is and who are you writing it for?

    4. Hi Marie,

      I think your blog layout is fun and entertaining – I’m sure what you want it to be. I also had a really huge problem with properly classifying my stuff (ie. Writing). But I realized it’s centered around my parents, my cultural heritage, and my dating disasters – so that’s how I classified each post and I put a separate link for each category on a sidebar. I also worry about readers finding my schizo log and trying to figure out what’s what, especially since my handle is one thing but I might write about something else. Took me over a year to figure it out though. You will too, I’m sure! Good luck!

      1. yeah, those categories sure help a lot don’t they… I work with them, but sometimes I feel they need some revamping since my content has changed so much since when I started. Thank you so much for your time and comments!

    5. I am kind of in love with your blog. I love your honest writing style. Photography is great, too.

      You’ve clearly already taken the above suggestion of separate pages for separate topics into consideration and applied it. Looks great.

      I believe that blogs should reflect the humans who create them. Some people put everything all in one blog, some people separate them into different blogs for different topics. It’s a personal decision and I don’t think there’s a right or wrong answer. …as long as one doesn’t say “this is a ________ blog” and then start making tons of off-topic posts.

      1. Well, the pages were something I’d been considering and wondering how to do it. So I just attacked it and found out how to do it. I wish I could link my Instagram feed directly in the sidebar as a widget but WP blocks it out. Sadly.

        I just discovered via today’s WP prompt that blogs like mine are considered Hybrids. I like that and shall use it. And you’re right about how blogs should reflect the person behind it… Sometimes I think my blog is similar to my wardrobe – so all over the place!

    2. It must be a big thing to put such thing out there. I found it very affecting. I feel for you. I do feel your blog should have more of a written warning that it’s not for the faint hearted and contains real violence. Or that you need to gird your loins, as it were, before entering. I know the main image depicts blood but maybe that’s not enough.

      3. Clearly the wrong choice of words, but maybe you could put a caption at the top of the “about” page stating that this is not creative writing.

        I do agree with Marie that the imagery is strong and powerful, but that didn’t keep me from at least *hoping* that your blog was a place for your creative writing outlet.

        And yes, I’m incredibly impressed with your decision to air out your life in the hopes of true healing. I hope that other people who have suffered similar attacks are able to find your blog and see hope.

  5. How do you guys feel about guest posts? Do you go to a site to read what the author has to say, or are you interested in reading a post from a guest every now and then?

    1. It depends. On a blog that focuses on a very specific topic it’s interesting to hear a different opinion every once in awhile. But in a blog that’s all over the place content-wise, I follow it because I like the blogger’s style. In those cases guest-posts don’t really do it for me, unless they have something really interesting to say.

  9. Hey everybody,
    I’ve been working on redesigning the layout and theme of my blog, and I could use some new input. I was going for something with clean lines, but still bright and fun. I wanted everything to look cohesive, like it was designed to go together (if that makes sense!) I’m not necessarily finished designing yet, but I could certainly use your comments and opinions on my sidebar, widgets, and anything else you want to mention. Thanks everyone!

    1. Hi! I actually commented on another blogger’s theme this evening. As I looked at your site the first reaction I had to the theme/colors was 1970s basement. Your blog has the potential to look aesthetically so much better! Take the time to go through the various themes available, press the “activate” tab, and the system will automatically convert your content to that theme. If it doesn’t look good, simply press “cancel” and you are reverted back to your starting theme. Just a few days ago I changed my blog’s appearance. The one I started with seemed too stark. In the future I know that I can always change themes again if I get tired of the way it looks. These are meant to be friendly suggestions! And by the way, I love your short, simple bio.

Also, I love beer, so I’m now following you. 🙂

      If I were in your position, I would reach out to the brewery where I had the bad experience, give them honest-yet-respectful feedback, and give them a chance to respond. I would definitely make sure that they know hypothetical me publishes beer/brewery reviews on my blog.

      I wouldn’t censor myself against the negative review, but I would let the brewery response guide my language in the write-up. Were they responsive and willing to listen to/do something about negative feedback? Awesome! I’d recommend giving them another chance – and that for folks who have tried/planning to try them to give the brewery both positive and negative feedback so that they can continue to improve.

      On the flip side, if they weren’t responsive to feedback and/or responded as if my post didn’t have any effect on their business, then I would definitely write about that because, in the craft brew world, there are plenty of awesome people who want their customers to have the best possible experience – and those are the ones who we should support with our dollars.

      Of course, you can always change your theme later, too. Note, if you do that, you may end up with posts that look nothing the way you intended because they were created in respect to the them at the time. (example: http://ampcideas.com/2012/11/21/color-my-world/… See how the pictures are just a verticle stream with lots of white space to the right? They totally used to be 2 or three to a line.)

      1. I see what you mean about the white space. It’s not too bad, though — I’m not sure I would have noticed it had you not pointed it out. As a reader, I probably would have just thought, “Well, that’s just the way it’s formatted,” and then not thought about it again after that. It certainly doesn’t detract from the substance (which is very good).

        I was looking at it on my iPad, so I don’t know if the layout is different on a non-mobile device. But I like how easy it is to navigate through the categories — it made it very easy for me to home in on things I was most interested in right away, and quickly get a feel for your blog and what it’s about.

    2. The “Press This” function allows quick publishing with a special web browser bookmarklet. You can create a post by quoting some text, images, and videos on any web page.

    1. I like your blog a lot. I like your poems and your reflections. I have a suggestion for it, though: make it yours. Change the header or (if you can) change the color of the links.

  30. I am a writer mainly. I have started dabbling in photography. I figured I could do both in one blog, because the overall arc is “my creativity.” But, I am beginning to wonder if I should do two separate blogs, since my format I think is more for written word than photos. Please take a peek and tell me what you think. http://cvillewinter.wordpress.com

    1. I’m of the opinion that one can have all the topics they want under one blog if it’s organized properly.

      I humbly suggest moving your awards under “about” or an “awards” page. Then, creating another page for “writing” and another for “photography”.

      Then, I would play with the different post types and featured image settings to make your photography posts stand out more.

      ….or you could disregard and create a photography blog. 🙂

      1. thank you for the suggestions.

        I’ve found that my tags don’t show up in the wordpress reader for any pages other than my primary page.

        have you noticed this problem?

      2. I’m not sure what you’re referencing – I didn’t see any secondary blog rolls on your page that would show up on the Reader.

      3. oh, I meant secondary pages like the awards page, thanks for following, and about page.

        my tags for those pages didn’t show up in the reader.
