Either you're using a mod to boost these stats or your conversion rate is 0.1%.
I have paid to start getting some traffic to my site
Also, i can't tell at a first glance what this forum is about. I also notice that your second link above for "applications" doesn't actually produce anything.
The forum is for webmasters, application is for members, not guests.
The colors are fairly easy on the eyes, which is cool. Why does your background color (gray) end mid page though? As far as that, i think the white works better anyway.
At the time we were changing color, now fixed, we have added Green and Blue colors with boxed and fluid for all colors.
Your about us in footer doesn't really say much and your affiliate links don't point anywhere (might wanna fix that for conversions, same with social media icons).
The affiliate links has started but i don't have others yet, Social media icons have not got url's just # because that will come later, the footer area will be looked at soon, due to spending a lot of time securing the site fully.
For your forums such as "market" and "hire", I would suggest using our Extra Threadfields mod (link in signature or profile). You can use the mod to add things to the market such as "Price" and what not, and then for hire you can have "type of job, date available, etc".
That sounds like a great idea, i will look into that, thank you.
Hope that helps.
If you are interested in helping me setup the threadsfield please PM me.
