    Hello I have created a news site for east-indians, and i would love for people to rate my blending as i have not yet uploaded this to the web, but will once i get a positive feedback from the community!

    there are two images because of the length, and not a site because its not published yet. thanks!

    Its ok, but almost too blended for its own good, it doesnt really look like content. I tended to just skip over the entire header because it looked kind of spammy and just skin my eyes down to the main content. I would suggest removing one of the banners and placing a block within you articles.

    Link Ads don't do sh*t... a lot of people think that clicking on them counts when in reality it just brings them to another page AND THEN if they click you will get paid...

    In fact, even the owner of the site is allowed to click on them. Not against the rules...

    Oh, I didn't notice your right click since it was an image, that one isn't placed to badly. I would still add another in the content though.

    The problem with news sites I see is that they have ver6y untargetted ads. I have seen this in the NYT and The Times.
