Fix-It Friday
It’s that time of the month again! Comment with your blog/website link and I’ll reply with one quick fix!
Here’s how it works: Between 8AM and 8PM ET post your blog/website link in the comments and I’ll reply with one tip for improvement. I’ll do my best to give each person a different suggestion so you can come back and use all of my tips to make your blog look shiny and new.
I’m also happy to answer short questions like “Is the font I used for my post titles too difficult to read?” or “Should I make my photos bigger?” Questions that will take a longer explanation will be saved for Nerd Party posts.
Ready, set, go!

Hey Sarah, apologies as I have no idea what 8pm ET means as I am half way around the world but hopefully I can stil be considered :)

Hey Renee! It is a rare occurrence, but I have absolutely no recommendations for you. I looked through your entire site and its clean, organized, and the design is consistent.
Only one thought since your site looks so good…I have no idea how well your ads are working – if they’re working great, then ignore this – but you might consider working directly with beauty brands or an ad network to choose ads more related to your content. But like I said, if your current ads are rocking then you’re good to go!
Hoping this works from Australia! Would love some feedback! xx
http://www.AhkaVintage.com
It worked! I’d recommend switching out the ahka vintage box to a graphic that is a circle instead of most of a circle. And on the blog page, move the navigation all the way to the right so it doesn’t cover the photo.
Oh I’m hoping this works and I properly leave a comment (this is like the eighth time I’ve tried to leave you a comment, somehow it never works for me), because I’d love your feedback on my blog! Thanks in advance! *fingers crossed
Hey Marci – I’m about to launch a redesign so hopefully the comments will work better for you! I love your background, but test putting white behind your blog so the background only shows on the sides. Also, see if you can switch the generic blue link color to the teal you use throughout the design.
Hi Sarah. I think I’m still within the time frame, but I’m writing from London so please feel free to ignore if I’ve missed it! I only found your blog quite recently but have already recommended it to a friend (who has a marketing/web based job, does trapeze classes and dreams of leaving her job to become a yoga instructor!). Would appreciate any feedback you can give me on my blog. Thanks! Jess
Hey Jess – Thanks for sharing my blog :) Your design is looking good! I’d recommend removing the blogger navbar at the top and making your post titles a bit smaller so they always fit on one line.
I’d love to know what you think of my header and layout.
Hey Diana – I really love the ‘designs by diana’ logo – if you have a bigger version I’d actually make that the main image and have ‘bloggings of a crafty girl’ written underneath. Also stick with the lighter green – it goes really well with the pink and blue.
Not sure if my last comment actually sent but would love love love to get your advice on my blog, I’ve been blogging for a while but only just starting to post more regularly, I’m really enjoying it! :-) I love your blog, such a wealth of advice in these comments too, will have to take a good look at all these lovely blogs when I get a minute!

Yes please :)
First off – that spinach artichoke sandwich looks SO GOOD! And also, so does your design :) Two thoughts – make Calico Tales a bit bigger and the sidebar titles bigger (or the icons smaller) as well.
