Hi, just had a look at your site.

Looks OK....But, i'm not sure if i have got it wrong, but in your header you have "magnit" do you mean "magnet"?

I also tried the product links and found that they did not work for me (page not found), so you may want to double check those, or it might just be my cheapo computer that is messing up :)

hmm.. not sure if it will work because you are not adding anything thats not on the sales page. My first suggestion will be to add your own story on how used it to make some cash or something. Secondly, get an optin box so that you can retain some of those people on your list for future promotions later on. Thirdly, get your basic privacy page/contact page etc out there.

I'm with sonitin. Firstly fix that typo, people won't really take you serious if you can't spell a word like magnet. And then do those things sonitin mentioned.

Good on you for getting a website up though. You've done better than my first attempt, so just work at it and you'll be right.

Thank you guys to all!
First of all I wish to tell that this site is created thanks to courses АffiloBlueprint and on the basis of XsitePRO. The most important thing that here is not pleasant to me, so it is articles. First it is not enough of them. And secondly they are written not very well.
I am not the English carrier and consequently to me difficult to write, besides, to me difficult most to note what article better and what is worse. Though on sense I can define...
Proceeding from it, I have decided to address for the help to experts.
According to recommendations AffiloBlueprint, I have decided to subscribe on Elance and have given there the announcement on a writing of articles. Have responded enough of people, I am grateful to them. Fairly to tell, difficult even to choose, to whom to charge work. On their portfolio, all of them skilled enough.
I have given its the site reference.
I have appeared before a difficult choice. I should be guided by what criteria... For example, one of them has written the following:
I would suggest the following it's a combination of article writing and link building which is clearly looking for here:

As you might know, Google values sites that have one way links (80% of a sites value is attributed to the number and quality of its links).

This involves 2 articles, 3 reviews and 1 press release:

110 Genuinely Relevant Inbound Links – Links are made by our programmers, publishing 2 original articles on 55 article sites. I use up to 4 keywords and 4 separate URLs for your sites’ network.

110 Genuinely Relevant Inbound Links – I publish 3 reviews about your site from 3 individual accounts
(Back-linking to as many as 3 URLs on your website) on 110 social bookmark pages.

40 Genuinely Relevant Inbound Links – Links are made by our programmers, publishing a press release on 20 specialist sites. We ensure as many as 4 keywords and 4 separate URLs for your sites’ new network.

The price is $490 USD or £290 (preferred currency). Normally this is a £399 service I offer to agencies.
To this expert I also wish to charge to perform this work and is grateful to it. Whether but it is not assured of one these expenses will be justified. I would like to hear your opinion about it.

P.S.Concerning "magnet", it is turned not to me, and to products resulted on a site.

Thanks you very much once again!

Any chance you guys got time to review my site. www.leanphysiquesecrets.com

It's not finished yet, I need to do a lot more articles and I've got a few more vendors and reviews and "best of" pages to do, and the side bar is not in the proper order. Other than that, Am I on the right track?

For me it seems that a site is good and convenient, colourful. It is very well daring for the first time. At me it very well opens. Well passes to the specified references. Good luck!

Kurt,
One thing that struck me was that you need to hit your reader with that benefit that they are so eager to get. I noticed that the first thing you talk about is why you are setting up this website. I read an article from a copywriting expert, John Carlton, and he says there are two basic sales messages as far as he's concerned. The Shovel and the Bulldozer. They both contain the same elements but to varying degrees. First, Who you are (basically why would you know about this stuff), what you have got for your prospect, how this amazing item is going to positively affect their life and what they need to do now to get involved, or buy or learn. The other thing he said in this article is that you need to touch their emotions...ie Are you tired of looking wimpy and feeling wimpy? (All I could think of at the moment) What I liked about your site is the blue at the top. The articles on the side seem like they need to look different somehow. I think they may look better with more space in between. If you look at other sites I notice a lot of white space(less writing) and what is written is real impacting. Marc Lindsay says that graphics sell.......maybe think about that.
Good Luck,
Brenda

Your site is really good, I like much. I took a different route and it will me the last one for me I think. Check out Cure for Insomnia, this is going to be an authority site. I will like to get money rolling in pretty quickly so I am leaning to affiloblueprint style sites.

Thanks everybody for your input, I will put more benefits, etc.. into my opening page

tjohnson, that's a pretty impressive site you've got going, I have no doubt you will develop it into an authority site.

If any body knows how to rearrange the left side bar, I;m open for education.

@sean06 did you develop this website yourself, (the product). You have a catchy title, like the 4 hour workweek by tim feris. Now you have the sixdayweekend, wow thats great. Have you tried the Russel Brunson technique by giving away one great secret on the product and then upselling to your product?

Coming back to your website;

1. I am probably too late but that price sounds very high for the number of aticles.

2. There are different font types and font sizes on the website and especially to see different ones on one page is a little distracting?

Just some thoughts.

Hi,
Just had a quick glance at your site. Looks very inpressive but noticed that the last link in the paragraph second from the bottom says 'my nonsense review. I am sure this should read my NO nonsense revew.

Any other ideas on building your first website. Do I need to use Xsite Pro or Dreamweaver and so forth? Or can I just go to one of those free sites like webnode.com and build a site that way.
Any recommendations?

For your first website, use WordPress (WP). Its is free (big plus) and have the freedom to travel anywhere, just stop by the cafe to tweak your site. Another plus, get writers to input the content for you on the wp site, you can give them access, just add them as a writer to the wp site. you still have control.

For your second website, I would use wordpress because of the reasons listed above.

ETC.

ETC.
