Hi

I am new to Internet Marketing and have setup a very basic website and
would appreciate some comments on its layout etc before I submit to
major Directories such as the ODP and Yahoo!

The URL is http://www.awesomemembershipriches.com

Many thanks,
Nick

If you are going to make a truly awful garish spruiking page like that,
the killer move (it would be so unexpected!) is to use 4.01 Strict and
get it valid. Using transitional and getting it invalid is simply
deflating.

(I wish this was not the first website I saw on this amazingly beautiful
Sydney morning)

This web site looks like a "Get Rich Quick" or "Join My Multi-Level
Marketing Fiasco" website, and had you not asked for a review I would
have been out of there immediately.

I seriously don't like the pop-up offer to purchase the book thrown up
in my face while I am trying to read. I never look at those, I just
quickly close them.

..that looks exactly like thousands of other scam sites. There must be a
template that all you guys use.

Even the domain name blares out "I'M A SCAM!"

Exactly the same here, Adrienne.

Does anyone ever buy that stuff?

I left anyway. I'm reminded of the "lipstick on a pig" analogy.

Likewise. And people ask me why I leave JS turned off.
