Default First Timer Needs Site Review

Hi, this is my first time making a site. I've decided to go along the lines of a free online training site and I've made multiple videos. Any help, comments, suggestions, etc is greatly appreciated.

www. PokerTrikz. com

I'm not sure where to go from here honestly.

Pretty nice looking first site. I don't have any major criticism. Briefly watched a video or two and advice seems pretty decent.

Try to be a little more authoritative in you analysis, and don't question what your trying to teach people The reason they are watching is to learn.

I didn't go through every page or video, but overall the site looks pretty solid. The only feedback I might give is to improve your header a little bit, it's not quite to the quality of the rest of your web site design in my opinion.

As far as look goes, I mostly like it. For a first website you have done a really nice job, keep up the good work! Here are a few quick thoughts of things you might want to look into changing.

The front page looks kind of bare, and could use some more info.

You definitely need to change your pages titles. You will be flushing money down the toilet by using the same page title on every page. Make the title specific to the keywords that you are targeting for the page. I ljust noticed some of the specific room reviews do have different page titles, but for the most part the majority of your pages are using the same title.

RakeUpdate.com isn't your site?

Hey Trikkur,

For a first site I think you are off to a really great start. One thing I would do instantly is have something to capture your visitors. Offer a free ebook (in exchange for their email address), or only show some of the videos, and have the rest restricted to those that have provided you with their email. This will help you start focusing on the money making aspects of the site.

Good luck!

Graham

To start out: Really, really really nice site.

as Graham + When youre coaching you cant stress BRM enough. Its one off your keys to running a site with rakeback offers, as you are a bit responsible yourself for making your players valuable to you and the sites.

Nice site and great job for a first timer. I don't like the vertical banners along the bottom of the page though. Are they meant to be on the bottom (I'm using Firefox)?

Regardless, banners aren't one of my favorite marketing concepts. Try to be a little more discrete if you're going to use them.

Great clean design and concept. I agree more information on the front page, and maybe only 1 banner down the side
