Hey guys,

I'm looking for critiques and feedbacks on my site as a whole. I need to know what I can do to improve it. Right now what I want to improve the most is the widgets on the left side of the forums.

Anyways please give me critiques and feedbacks for my site. Thanks!

Site Name: Tech-N-Deals

Site URL: http://techndeals.net/

Description: At TechNDeals you can find the latest news in Technology and the Hottest Deals online. Why buy retail when you can shop online and find what you need at half the cost. Our deals forums provide you with the best online deals possible. You can find deals for clothes, food, games, computers - desktops / laptops, and other hardware technology. This is possible because we are a user-driven deal sharing site with a mission to provide consumers an avenue to collaborate and share information in order to make the best shopping decisions. TechNDeals achieves this by providing its users a forum for communication and various shopping tools. TechNDeals prides itself on being user and community focused, never allowing paid placement for frontpage deal listings.

Aside from our deals forums we also provide the most up to date forums in technology and computer related materials. TechNDeals gives you the latest reviews in technology and hardware. You can find our written reviews in articles and blogs all over the forums. They are the best because they are written by consumers just like you, so you will know hands down if the product is good or not. Our authors are all tech experts and will provide you with the best feedbacks possible. But in the end you will be the one to judge.

Our forums are aimed towards a more relaxing environment and community. Every time a member makes a post they will b experience and credits in which they can spend on various things throughout the forums.

Credits can be spent on things like professional graphics design by other members. These designs would include some art concepts of your favorite avatars, signatures, or even backgrounds for your profile. Credits can also be spent on professional video intros made by other members. Most importantly credits can be used as a currency to trade or buy for your favorite games or MMORPGs in-game items and currency. Forum Credits will be usable for games such as World of Warcraft, Diablo II, Rift, Aion, and Guild Wars. These are just some of the things you can do with credits. To earn credit is very simple, all you have to do is contribute back to the community by posting quality posts or deals.

TechNDeals also provide a great "eBay" like feedback system for our Marketplace | Trade - Buy - Sell | forums. This system will provide our members with the most precise information about their buyer/trader before they engage in their trade.

Our Marketplace | Trade - Buy - Sell | forums provide exchange in both in-game items and classified physical items such as CD-Keys and Serial for your games. In order to make your transaction safe, we also have teams of mediators to assist you with your transaction. This will create an overall safe and secure environment for everyone.

Additional we also have a Online Social Network forums. These forums would include your favorite social networking sites such as: Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Hi5, Bebo, Tagged, Skyrock, Flickr, Friendster, Multiply, and Friendfeed. You can expand our social network by requesting friends from all over the world! This will be great for your business boost.

So why not sign up on our forums today! It's Free! Start shopping and saving with our Hot Deals forums. Learn more about the latest Technology. And earn yourself some credits to spend!
 
Re: In need of reviews and feedbacks for my forums 🙂

What I Like: I love the idea behind your site. You have a lot of competition though, so it will be hard to separate your self from the rest of the tech sites. With some competitions or guest posters though, that should not be a problem.

What I Don't Like: I don't really mind seeing all of the empty categories, as tech forums usually fill up pretty fast. I really don't like the side buttons, register and faq. I would try and put those up top, so that your forum will take up the full width of the page. I would also see if you can get rid of the portal as the link that you want people to land on. Just go straight to the forums.

I like your site and the idea behind it, it has a lot of potential. Best of luck!

yeah I just started it up yesterday and no one really knows about it yet lol. What's wrong with the portal? I intended it to be the front page for my front page deals.

I've just never really been a big fan of portals. A lot of people will not even join a forum that has a portal as the landing page. They would rather just get to the forum first. Portals are scattered and look bad. That is just my opinion though.
