Hey all,

I have added a number of posts to my blog. Traffic is slow and barley getting any hits on links so google income is almost non existant. I'm looking for insight on my content and ease/flow of the blog. I write stories and ways for everyone to save money, ways you may not have ever known. Any insight, advice will be great.

The first thing I noticed, which is always a turn off to me, is the spelling and grammatical errors. I'm not really a grammar nazi, but if I'm looking for some good advice, I'd rather take it from a well written, well revised article.

Other than that little thing, the content was interesting and kept me reading. Maybe work on the layout a bit, as it tends to be pretty blah.

I like it.. I was going to say maybe keep the side columns the same color but make the main content's background white (which would look better IMO), but it looks like the way you have it now is good for the sake of adsense. Good content!

It looks good. I like that it's not over run with ads and other widgets and stuff. The theme sorta of lacks, but looks good.

Too many ads unrelated to the main subject. Also try adding some images. Hope this helps.

Id prefer the header was the same width as the rest of the page.

Good content but the blog looks very ameteur. If you're going to hack your theme, at least make it look good, or just use a basic theme.

In my experience (I used to run a frugal blog) Adsense is useless. You might need to find another way to generate revenue, such as affiliate selling of relevant items. Try biggreensmile.com.

Maybe a bit odd running a money saving blog and then having a donate button at the top of the page?

Keep up the good work.
