#5 - Overall those are the key things I picked up on at first glance.
The only other thing I would keep a close eye on is your optin offer.
First impression for me is that it's a little weak.

Building your list is one of the most valuable assets you can create for your business, so you want to make sure you are putting a super compelling offer in front of your audience.

Richard has some great advice to follow. I wanted to check out more about good opt-in offers and found this posting: main-mlm-discussion-f2/how-do-you-decide-on-an-opt-in-offer-t24668.html. Richard (and others) give more details there and plenty of things to think about.

For me it is too generic. It does not let me get to know who you are. At the end of the day people are joining you.

Just my thoughts?

Great point there. I checked out your personal site and while it definitely sells Vemma, more importantly it sells Tyler and Mimi Ford. I'll bet it is successful in attracting people interested in joining you. Everyone likes teaming up with a winner. I learned something today.

Thanks Richard for your brilliant review. One more thing I need to consider is to reduce spamming. Guys do you have any idea, how to go about it? should I be asking this question to my designer or is there something I can do without bothering her?

Hi Judia,

Seems like there's lots for useful feedback already but here's my (brief) view:

- Great presentation on the front page, love the simple, clear look. Very suitable for health prducts.

- Agree with other comments, some personal connection with an about you, even an image of you on the home page would be good. Builds up the trust...

- Also mentioned in previous comments but I would definitely bring in the width of the posts, perhaps to the same width as they have on the front page.

- Within the posts, it helps to break them up into 2-3 sentence paragraphs with a space between each. It's easier to read. That's also helped by putting in a few subheadings (which will also help with SEO if they include your keywords).

- If you don't already have it, get the 'Akismet' plugin. There's some comments on at least one of your posts (How much is too much?!) which are spam for semi or ir-relevant sites.

Hope that helps, generally speaking, Nice work!

Good luck

Jym

Thanks Richard and Jym regarding the plugin to avoid spam. I am currently moderating through manually, but as jym pointed out I do get a lot of comments and it is time consuming. I checked my wp back office and found that I do have 'Akismet' plugin, but it is not active. I will inform my designer to activate it when she does the upgrade, so if any issues arises she would be able to fix it. thanks guys, much appreciate your tips

You're doing a great job The opt-in is very nice and also, just have a catchy title and it will surely bring you more visitors

I received a mock up of how it is going to look when I upgrade. unfortunately, she did not create it in a different url, nor did she attach it in the email. I wanted to show it to you guys to get some feed back, so before it goes live I can make changes without extra charge. I did copy the screen and pasted in word, tried to attach it with the post, also tried to save it as pdf and attach it. Both formats has been rejected. how do I get you guys to view it?
