Sweet site -
couple of things
the word welcome has no 'L' - says Wecome

there seems to me no keywords or meta description filled in - I don't know how important searchability is to you r site, but if it is, you should fill these in
Right click on any empty place on your page and go to the metatag tab and fill in keywords and description

only other thing is that the text is so light I find it hard to read..


lovely site, should be a hit..

regards,

I love the 'new look'...

I also found the page loaded slowly for it's size. Maybe resize your picture sizes as your family pic is actually 716x527 and are using it at 230x315 on your page (this will help load speed).Your Online Network Of Friends seems to be right aligned???

On a personal preference note, I'm not fond of "counters and stats" especially
on a neat site, which yours certainly is.


Good work,

Really nice site youve got there
But have to agree about the brightness on the yellow text.It was a little to bright,and difficult to read.

on the page with the pictures of the babies - did you consider using the lightbox effect - might be cute keep up good work

Hi Kezz,

Nice site well done. Nice idea too... and cute!

Just one thing bugging me... What's with all the domain names?

Firstly if you own babychats.co.uk then just typing that in should get your homepage but it doesn't? You shouldn't need to type in index or kezz/index etc etc.

Also sometimes your domain name changes to http://babychats.jobsatjobsearch.com...uncements.html

I don't get why the 'jobsatjobsearch' in the middle?

Sorry, just being nosey... plus just worried that the SE's will be able to make sense of it too?
