My new site! What do you think?

[autumn1220]

I have been building a new site called http://www.eatingonabudget.com and would love to know what everyone thinks! I have been putting in some family favorite recipes and have alot more to add. Our other website is www.wahmonabudget.com and soon to be released (by my husband) livingonabudget.net
I would love to hear what everyone thinks and if you have any suggestions or even some favorite recipes. My email isn't set up through the site yet but you can pm me or contact me through wahmonabudget.com
thanks,
Judy

Great site! It is easy to use and looks great.

My sister and I were just talking about recipes (well, she was talking, I was listening) last night! I'll send her a link to your website so she can get some recipes!

As for me, I'll be back to your other site!

Judy:

EatingOnABudget.com is a really nice looking site and some really great content - I might learn something!!! :D

From a design standpoint, I like your color scheme and the header looks really nice.

My biggest concern is that you have too many ads and they kind of distract for your site content. For instance, if I click on "Crock Pot" recipes, you have 1 recipe and 7 ads. If the ads overpower your content, there's a good chance that visitors may not return for a 2nd visit.

I'd suggest streamlining the number of ads you run and trying to better integrate them into your site content. In this way, not only will you encourage repeat visits, but you will also improve your click-through rates.

Good luck!
