Minor Changes to Blogsessive’s Structure
April 08th, 2008 / News & Reviews
Hello folks! In the next few days, Blogsessive will be suffering some minor changes. Nothing much, just adding a line here, one there, switching boxes around. Feel free to tell me what do you think about it, give me your ideas and suggestions for the sidebar and which information would you like to have access to first. After all, the content published here has to find its way to you. The easier, the better.
So, don’t be shy, share your thoughts.

Hi Alex! First of all… you’re doing a great job so far. Looking forward to more great blogging related articles.
Just a couple of comments:
- I like the header and the fact that the blog has a strong identity
- Nice AdSense integration, unobtrusive
- I think you should move the RSS next to the email subscription. I know your audience is mostly beginner bloggers, but I’m pretty sure there are a lot of more advanced bloggers who follow your blog. So I think you should highlight the RSS a bit more.
- The homepage looks a bit crowded. Might have to do with the fact that you use the More tag, and there are so many links in such a small space. The article pages are better I think, because of the article text, that softens some of that red.
Keep up the good work!
Hello Adrian,
Good point on the RSS feed! I’ll be looking for a way to stand out.
Also, I’m thinking of a way to restructure the homepage and make it a bit more focused on the latest article, and then, only list the older articles, without too many details.
Unfortunately, that will affect the website’s layout, since the sidebar is a bit higher than the future height of the homepage that I have in mind.
I’m not sure yet how that will affect the overall aspect and usability.
Thanks for your comments and suggestions and welcome to Blogsessive!
Alex
