I previously mentioned, while talking about BenSpark’s contest, that this was a night of giveaways, and here’s mine!
I’m offering up 1 Free Affiliate Summit West Silver Pass worth $349 to Affiliate Summit West 2009 in Las Vegas via the Izea Insider Program.
I will be at Affiliate Summit myself, and would really like to see you there too! Those aren’t just words, I’ve got a free pass to Affiliate Summit to get you in the door!
This is your chance to get a free pass to the show. This is one of the hottest conferences around because it has all the ingredients for you to earn REAL money on the internet.
Plus, Affiliate Summit is organized EXCEPTIONALLY WELL!
Anyway, if you win this pass, all you have to do is get yourself to Las Vegas by January 11 – 13th. That may sound like a big deal, but it is cheap, cheap, cheap to go to Vegas during those days (Sun – Tues). I got a round trip flight for $178 + tax, paid with frequent flyer miles and hotel room that night for $29 per night! With a free pass, you’ve got no excuse not to go to Affiliate Summit West.
Now, seriously if any of the following words cross your mind:
No, No, don’t twist my arm. Don’t make me go to one of the most fun cities on the planet and figure out how to make money. Don’t help me figure out how to quit my day job and do what Harry does (working from a WiFi Fishing Dock on a lake). I like my cubicle, I like my cubicle, I like my cubicle. I LIKE MY CUBICLE!!!!!
Don’t Enter! Seriously, there are lots of people trying to get their hands on these tickets and this show almost always sells out (never heard of it not selling out, otherwise I’d write ‘always sells out’)

Thanks for the opportunity Harry! I’m the first to enter, so that means I’m the winner, right? lol
Well I looked at your site, and you’re right - it needs help. There’s a lot of “noise” going on all over the page. I think that a few changes could really make it not so distracting. My first suggestion would be to get rid of or change the color of the bright green bar. Actually, I don’t mind the bar as I mind that there’s actually writing in the bar. It really distracts from the overall appearance of your site. Also, I’d suggest maybe putting the two columns off to the right hand side in a very slight shade of gray. That would be enough to make your content stand out a little more. One more thing. I use Mozilla Firefox, and your google adsense is kinda messed up when viewing it. It runs into your right hand columns instead of staying aligned with your content. You may want to check that out as well.
Best of luck with the redesign- I’m sure it’ll look fabulous after you implement some of the suggestions

More style, pizazz and color, less white. Website name and title need to be larger and more eye-catching. Ad just below smaller and maybe moved. Too intrusive now. Finally, a bit less information and text in the sidebars. Kind of distracting. Surf’s up, dude! HO! HO! HO!

I would recommend hiring a pro blog team to build you a fresh design from the ground up. (something unique to you)
I suggest a “theme”, with 3-4 main colors, and a main graphic for branding. I would clean up the amount of plugins as this tends to bog down on some blogs.
The categories list is way too long, as well as the list of recent comments. Instead, I would show the top 10. May I suggest “Unique Blog Designs” for the job to do a makeover. They do excellent work, all css/xhtml compliant, work in all browsers. They did ShoeMoney, JohnChow, and many other high profile bloggers. You cant go wrong with them (www.unqiueblogdesigns.com). I’ll be using them after the new year to have a design done. Im sure they can also suggest a format that has worked best for getting a sticky blog.
We’ll, that’s my entry. My twitter is at: http://twitter.com/masterlesamurai
Thanks again for this opportunity to win!
