Hey everyone,

This is my new site that is dedicated to spreading great music that you love and enjoy. I am still currently building out the site and adding new content, but I would love some constructive criticism that would help me with the direction of the site.

If you get a chance, sign up and let others know some of your favorite music. Thanks!

Stounce.com - your place. your music. your thoughts.

I appreciate the review. Spread the word.....i'm still trying to figure out how to get people coming to the site and then coming back time and time again. If anyone has insight into that please help!

There is alot of unused space to the right. Maybe you can re-organize the links at the bottom so they appear on the right side when you open the page to fill in some of the wasted space.

Logo at the top doesn't seem to flow with the blotchy white background (logo is blocky, try to use transparent background)

Other than the above, I like the site alot. I Like the logo, tagline, and what the site is about.The colors fit the scheme of the website. Well done.

Thanks, definitely going to fix that logo and make it transparent

Love the site. I am doing something similar myself. If you do figure out how to get people to come to the site and keep coming let me know.

I have actually had pretty good luck with advertising my site in the Musicians section of Craigslist in a number of different communities. However, the people visit, some sign up, not many return. So I am currently working on ways to keep them coming back.

One of the idea's I had that might work for you is a monthly newletter, just to keep your name on peoples minds.

Anyone else have any insight?
