Do you feel there is something wrong with it. Taking a quick glance I did not see any problems.

I think your blog looks great. Honestly it is very easy on the eyes. If you want more search engine traffic you need to do some link building and choose every blog title with care. Incorporate a term people actually search for. This Keyword Suggestion Tool is great.

Well it is certainly nice to hear it from a few people that my site is doing fairly well. The only things that I am afraid of that might take away from my blog is, one, the fact that I am using a non-unique wordpress template, and two, the fact that my posts do not have a 'voice.'

Anybody have an answer for me, or a suggestion now that I have spilled the beans as to what bothers me exactly about my site.

Great suggestions from Rob, I would have said the same thing. Particularly on the headlines and that is mostly because I don't know much about the link building aspect of this. If you are concerned about a blog voice, maybe not post a contest every day, and have some personal posts in there now and then. Like contests winners or something from a previous contest. But, given the nature of your blog, I don't know if a personal voice is a HUGE concern. A nice touch, but I wouldn't stress too much about it. However, I think you have a great blog considering how young it is, just keep at it. Good work!

I appreciate you review. That is one thing that you said that is way too true - my blog is very young. How long have you been blogging? This actually could go for everyone, how long has everyone been around?

So tell us,

How is the PrizeBlog doing? I noticed you did alot of promotion; curious to hear how it's panning out!

Slow and Steady I guess would be the appropriate terms. I receive about 200 uniques a day, but I would like more. Plus I am now trying to gain exposure for my RSS Feed.

200 uniques a day is 6000 a month. That's really good for a blog that is aged as well as yours. Looks like your promotions ARE paying off. It's a slow game man. Good luck!

Thanks Rob. I think blogging is just a waiting game. Blog Interviewer dot com asked me what the most important part of blogging is patience. Definitley.
