Hey Everyone,
a lot of you are probably familiar with my main website, well my company just launched a Relationship Advice blog last week. It has a few posts on it so far.

We are kind of new to the whole blogging world, so any and all constructive criticism is welcome. Thanks!!

that is a great start! the content is great now you just have to make sure you are getting the visitors to read it

I think there is way to much white space. Orange is such a strange color for me and there are only a few places that it really works. When I think of relationships/love I don't think of orange, but I do think of red, kind of like Valentines Day.
I think with all the white background it reminds of me a sterile environment, like a doctors office, a little color never hurts.
You have good thing going, just need to spruce up the site. I am in the middle of redesigning my site right now too, adding new colors, logo, etc...I don't think a facelift hurts from time to time, at least to keep the clients interested in returning.

Good Luck

Yes, good content. About the header? Maybe you could change it to a more interesting one. Good luck!

Since I don't know you, I'll be honest.

First, it looks like you might have plagiarized content from an advice site, then posted that material, pretending that the author was a member of your forum. Correct me if I'm wrong. Are those people really members of your club?

Here are some quotes from your ads:
We are proud to launch this new blog that is a guide to finding success in relationship and life. Since human relationship is needed for achieving success, we will provide you with the relationship advice and relationship tips to reach the level you want to be at.

We have developed a program to help you figure out what makes you happy, how to set your dreams and goals, and how to achieve them.

The problem is this.
Have you really developed a program that does that?
Honestly?

Bluff and fluff will not take you far. If you want to be any kind of "expert", plagiarism is not the right first step. Go to college and be a student before becoming an expert.

lol, what does going to college have to do with becoming an expert at anything, let alone an expert at relationships?

But seriously, if you were to actually look into things (all the information can be found in one spot or another on our sites); you would find out that the postings on the blog are summaries of the full articles on RAD Reality (one of our websites) which have been written by Tim Connor, who is one of our many experts that we have a relationship with. There has been absolutely zero plagiarism or unauthorized use of content, unless its other people who have been taking it off of our sites (which we have found).

Anything else you want to try to criticize?

I like the header. Very crisp and fitting for your site. Im a little distracted by the ads though. Too much?

Also, a sugestion: since you do have the expertise over the matter, tout it. It can build a lot of confidence to from your readers.

thanks for the feedback. I made the background of the page and the background of the sidebar to a light grey, so there isn't so much white on the page. Hopefully it looks better now.

[cageavs]

I really like the content of your site. I think it is a place where a person can go to find lots of relationship advice and some great articles. I think you could add some more color and eye catching graphics.
I look forward to joining the forums and reading all of the great content.

It does look like a helpful site with a lot of useful content. I kinda noticed the jpg compression in some content pics detracting from the sharpness of the rest of the site.

"one of our many experts that we have a relationship with"
That's possible but it honestly is not likely.
When I typed radreality into google there were 5,530 hits. All 5,530 come from radreality, digg, and five other domains.
"Tim Connor", "relationship" has 11,000 genuine hits.
Add "radreality" and the number drops to two.
You are probably exaggerating your "relationship" with mr connor.

"Anything else you want to try to criticize?"
No. Not criticize. Just the same advice that pretending to be an expert is not the same as being one. It's something you learn the easy way or the hard way. I've learned it many times, the hard way, and I'm giving advice not criticism.
