iWebBuddy's Forum Review - Allawesomeness.com

Graphics :

Logo :
The forum's logo is much better than the last one, but it's not perfect for the forum.

As anyone can see, it doesn't 100% blend in with the header's background.

Marks - 9/10

Forum's Template :
A great improvement than last time.

One of the problems that I am seeing is that there is no footer on the forum. Try adding a footer background to increase the forum's good-looking appearence.

And, there is an error at the forum with the sidebar widgets. Every widget is fine, except for the last one.

The background of the last sidebar widget is missing. All widgets must have the same style to look great.

Marks - 18/20

Overall Marks For Graphics = 27/30

Content :

Main Content :
According to the meta tags on the forum :

Code:: <meta name="description" content="A site where you can play in the Arcade, Talk about webkinz, sports or even politics, play forum games, join clubs, and make new friends! Now with advertizing! Promote your website, forum or blog here" />

Firstly, advertising was spelled wrongly. And, an idea for spelling this one word wrong, SEO related, was the get traffic from people who spelt the word, 'advertising' wrong on the search engine.

But, I think the online dictionaries are taking care of that, Wink

=> Google Word Search - Advertizing

Also, you said on the forum's meta description something about 'Webkinz'. I can not find anything related to the keyword, 'Webkinz' on the forum.

All that I can find is one topic, located in the club section of the forums.

Now, on to the meta keywords.

Code:: <meta name="keywords" content="Awesomeness, Webkinz, Fun, Games, Chat, graphics, you, made, show, poems, or, storys, you, wrote, make, clubs, and, everything, else, that, is, awesome, webkinz, fun, allawesomeness, advertising, prom" lang="en" />

Again, the word, 'Webkinz' has been used.

Try to related the forum's keywords to the different forums of Allawesomeness.com

Marks - 31/40

Organisation :
I don't like the way 'Your Portfolio' was used for a forum just to show off artwork, stories, poetry, graphics, etc...

Read the meaning of the word, 'Portfolio'.

It is more of a collection of your work, more than just limiting what the member of the forum can post. Some people might think that the forum called, 'Your Portfolio' , is something different...

Now, moving on. I like the way the forum got re-organised. It's much better to find what your looking for.

Marks - 8/10

Overall Marks For Content = 39/50

Activity :

BackLinks :
Since a new domain name was purchased, there are not much backlinks of this forum. Much work needs to be done to build up a good number of backlinks to this new domain name. But, the old domain name, or sub-domain name I should say, has a good number of backlinks.

Marks - 11/15

Forum Activity :
As said before, for a forum at this age, the activity is fine.
