Hello,

I have launched my forum called "Blogging Talk" and I would like to receive some reviews about :
- The design (Do you like it, the logo, the placement of things, colours ...)
- The forums (Are you satisfied with the categories of forums for a blogger ?)
- The totality (any thing you would like to say !)
I just need those reviews before I add new things and functions and before starting its advertisement and SEO !

Thank you !
I <3 U VB !

Oops, I forgot the URL : www.blogging-talk.com

You've got a lot of empty forums, Try populating them or removing unnecessary boards. A common problem with new forum administrators is that they make too many empty forums.

Yes, Thanks for the reply but, that have nothing to do with my request

My forum is brand new one and did even not invited anyone let neither advertised it !

I know but even I don't make so many forums on sites that are new
I do a hierarchy like this:

announcements
niche discussion
off topic zone

I agree with Speysider. Farr too many forums!

I had to scroll on endlessly!!! Also, they don't look good as they're empty!

But those are everything related to blogging !

What do you suggest then ?

Now, I have reorganized all my forums, the number is now 5 forums really optimized. Can you get a look and tell me ?

That looks so much better, but the last category contains two forums of the exact same nature. Just make one forum called Forum Support/Feedback.

Also, remove the ads since you're going to earn nothing out of them right now.

One more thing: you've banned two spammers, but you're still leaving their posts there. That only entices more of them to appear. Delete them to prevent real members seeing their posts.
