Trying something new with my blog

    I was trying out a new template for my hybrid review blog and I was looking for some feedback. I'd appreciate any comments.

    hybridreview.blogspot.com

    Yes, I know it's at blogspot and most people here would recommend I move it off of there. I'm considering doing just that.

    Very nice site. I like it very much. Ad integration is ok. May be a little to much ads but you can test this later. Congratulations.

    Nice Blog Mike.

    Your ads do fit in well but what you may want to try is add them to every 3rd post making them more spread out over the blog, at the moment they are all at the top of the page with none at the bottom.

    Good Luck.

    Blogger has been known to delete posts and full blogs without warning - I havent seen this myself though.

    Very nice template and ad position.
    Good luck :)

    Really? You can write 10-20 pages of content in your blog and they can delete it without warning? It's sucks!

    Danm, not good at all! You have to backup every content thay you are writing...
    I think it would be better to open a blog somewhere else or just build your own website.

    True but I still use Blogger for less serious blogs and they still bring me good earnings with Adsense - I am just waiting for them to start removing posts :(

    I'm glad to see people like the ad positions/blog. How do you set the blog template so that the ads are shown every third entry? I had to put the adsense code into the space between the title and the entry to make it show up 'inside' the articles. As it is, the ads show up for the first three articles, but because of the TOS, that's it.

    Good question and for some reason I thought you were putting the code in using a different method than inserting space between the title and the entry :eek:

    I also want to know how to enter the code every 3rd post - anyone know of a plugin?
