If money is of any interest to you, and who isn’t interested in money, then perhaps you want to stop in to Silver Monthly: Resource for Silver Investing. If you have a look at it, you will see just how right they probably are, it is a very comprehensive resource when it comes to the metal exchange system. This blog has sought information from several resources that will help you determine where silver fits into your modern portfolio. Any of their recent posts will give you an excellent idea as to how comprehensive this blog really is: A history of money and banking in the United States: Book Review; Silver Bearish Investor Vs. Silver Bullish Investors; Eight Rules for Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) Success; MAG Silver Corp. to List on the American Stock Exchange; Chicago Futures Markets Post Record Volume in June; Gold, Silver Futures Advance as Dollar Weakens Against the Euro, Silver Price to Remain High on Investor Interest, U.S. Gold Corp Should Gain on Shaky Dollar, and Silver Stocks Outperform Gold Stocks.
The navigation is very simple on this site, with posts being left marginalized and two right navigation bars. Appearance also is very simple and readable, with black text on blue columned backgrounds against a primary white background. The left-sided right navigation bar contains a links menu, stock quotes, metal prices and a search bar as well as the categories of “Allâ€, “Silver Investing Articlesâ€, “Silver Newsâ€, and “Books Reviewedâ€. You will also find a link to the Silver Forum if you are interested, as well as a menu for the Most Popular Posts which will give you information on how to survive mutual funds, and which companies and countries are the major producers of silver. On the right-sided navigation bar you will also find a comments menu and the recent posts links.
I am going with a 4 for this one. The only suggestions I would have would be to add some pictures to give a little oomph to the blog – even simple pictures of money or gold or silver. Also I really like to see an About page on blogs, even on ones as professional as this one. It gives the blog a voice and even a little bit as to how the blog came into fruition would be very interesting to the readers I think. On other accounts however, the blog scores excellently for superbly written content, very professional appearance, and efficient usability with the navigation system in place. I also thought the advertising was so well formatted, that it could probably even use a little more if it wants to without running the risk of distraction. Judging by the quality of the recent comments in the very organized comments menu, I think this blog has a good following. Given the way the market fluxes today however, it could probably pick up a few readers along the way with some of these suggestions. Overall, the blog is doing well though and is a very professional and easy read.
