A couple of weeks ago I requested a paid blog review from Eyriqazz.com and this morning I received the review. You can read the entire review in Eyriqazz.com.

As a response, here are my comments regarding the review (so this is like a review of the review):

I completely agree with the reviewer regarding the header. It's pretty plain and therefore it makes the header look empty. Shall need to work on that one.

Also, the reviewer stated that I only have one entry per page. Let me make this clear everyone, I suppose this stems from my preference on keeping the page as simple as possible. I do believe that certain blogs are suitable to have multiple entries per page but there are also blogs that look great with just one entry on the homepage. Anyway, I've decided to take the review into account so there are now 2 entries per page.

Regarding the length of entries, reviewer mentioned that sometimes it is slightly lengthy. However, I DO expect it to be so, since this is a personal blog after all. Plus, I have articles in this blog too so it makes sense for the entries to be lengthy. Though I agree that I may need to include pictures in between the paragraphs.

I don't quite follow the "Wow factor" bit. What is a "wow factor" anyway? It would be really nice and helpful if the reviewer can provide some examples to this "wow factor".

About the chatbox, I can see the point of the reviewer. The chatbox takes the bulk of visitors' attention. It might be a good idea to remove it from the blog. Hopefully that will encourage people to read and comment on the entries instead.

Interaction with readers. Not sure what kind of interaction is needed here since I already have questions posted in the entries for the readers to answer. I even went around promoting the blog but no one seemed to actually bother to want to leave comments on the blog. Is it because I post the entries in English? If that is so, so here's the chance for you to help me out:

What can I do to attract more readers/viewers to this blog?



Nevertheless, I would like to thank the owner of Eyriqazz.com for his honest and straight-forward review and I will try my best to incorporate some of the suggestions into the blog in the future.
