    Review http://buy-video-games.net

    Hi there, recently redesigned my video game store. And yes, I know that the URL is horrible; however, with it being an AWS site I don't think I'll be expecting much return traffic anyways.

    http://buy-video-games.net

    Any comments/questions/crits on the design is much appreciated.
    Also, I'd like you to give me tips on placement of certain things, if you think it could maybe increase sales, etc.

    Thankxz alo0ot evaryoone!!!!!11!. :!1!11!11111

    AWS sites are dead. Move on.

    In the last Google update I lost about a million AWS listings. Then this week I lost another 10,000 more! I now have a measly 21,800 URLs indexed.

    Luckly Yahoo came along and started indexing them.

    If anyone wonders why I'm so bitter to Nintendo, I can happily link you to the 'Find More Posts by Nintendo' at several forums.

    What?? What's that??!! Oh, you wanted a site REVIEW!! Why didn't you simply say so??!!!

    OK, here goes...!!!! Ugggg, ugly site. No original content. Just ugly duplicate content from Amazon. All it is is one big fat ad with a little Google ad inside it!!! No wounder Google's being smart and dumping all the AWS sites. They all suck (Except the ones I own!!)!!!!

    Well, what could I say. Every one else thought it was so ugly that they didn't want to hurt your feelings so they didn't reply!!!! Next time think twice before asking for something, or else you might get it!!!

    pze no choke!!!!

    Hmm, no, your AWS sites are definitely the ugliest I've seen.

    James - decent looking site, although at first I was wondering where your menu was!

    Personally I would bring it beneath the Battlefield 2 banner, and mark it up more obviously.

    Is there an xml feed from a games site you could integrate into the site, w/ games news etc?

    The adsense skyscraper on the right hand side drops to the very bottom of the page for me (IE6).

    Riiiiiiight, I should probably move that. You're right, now that I look at the layout, it's really horribly placed in there.

    I'll experiment with placement of the nav.

    Yeah, you're right, I should probably add some non-AWS content. I'll learn some PHP and MySQL and try to program up some sort of a news aggregator that shows the latest snippet and a link to the full news article--a lot of game sites have news feeds.

    How about you take all that rubbish to PMs.
    Hmmm I should start harassing him though PMs, too....
