The modern style.
First of all, I have to say that I absolutely love the modern style of your website. It is very impressive! You have done a great job with the color scheme. I really like the peach color that is the background of the quotes on the index. There are many aspects that I could comment on. The logo and favicon match very well. They are very simple, but attractive. I really like how the color of "tips" on the logo is utilized throughout the website. One thing I think could be improved with the logo is the icon on it. I honestly did not even notice the black icon behind the "w" on the logo at first. Next, I love the modern CSS3 and jQuery you have used in the dynamics of your website. It makes for a very pleasant browsing experience. You have done a fantastic job with the web design!
The assortment of images.
To start thing category off, I would just like to say that the images are another key aspect of your website. It looks to me like you have a unique image for every blog post. I think that is great. That is something that is always going to be attractive to people that view your blog. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and that might be a sentimental Hallmark type of thing, but everyone loves to look at pictures on a website. It makes the website a lot more interesting to look over, and if certain photos are of interest, that is when you pull them in to read the actual content of a particular blog post. Because of this, photos are an excellent feature to have with any blog post. For example, I really like the image used in the "Mozilla creates Firefox OS" post. It is very nice. Overall, I think the unique images you have on your blog post complement the style very well!
Weaknesses:
Commenting activity.
As far as weaknesses go, I feel like I am being very nitpicky, but I think something could be done about the commenting activity on your website. While the "4 reasons to use goo.gl" blog post has a very respectable amount of seven comments, I noticed a couple blog posts that only have one comment. I think this could definitely be improved. I know that you know about websites such as PostLoop, but if you're against using them for whatever reason, I think you should give them a shot. Until you establish your website and receive maximum exposure from search engines, blog comments are going to be difficult to come by. Because of this, it is okay to go back to the basics of blog comment exchanges, blog comment packages, and more. Finally, I noticed that I can not see the amount of comments made for each blog post on the index page. I think that is something that you should definitely consider adding to your website. I think it is a little strange that it is not there because there is definitely room for it. Lastly, I am wondering why you are using "Livefyre" for commenting? On other websites, I have seen commenting systems from websites such as Facebook and more. I guess that is a minor thing, but I am curious as to what the pros are of using the commenting system you are using. Overall, you need to work on getting more comments for your blog posts.
Blog posting activity.
Next, the blog posting activity seems to have disappeared recently? At first, you seemed to be doing a great job keeping your website active by having blog posts made nearly every single day. Unfortunately, it has been about six days since your last blog post. While quality is more important than quantity, with more and more blog posts each day, that should mean more and more comments each day as well. So, just by fixing this weakness, I think you would probably fix the weakness above as well. While it may be difficult to make an extremely helpful blog post each day, it looks like your website is covering a little bit of technology news as well, so on the days you do not have webmaster tips to share, maybe that is what you can blog about? Also, if you think of multiple things to write about on the same day, you should spread your blog posts out. By doing this, you will hopefully have your readers visiting your blog on a daily basis.
Final Remarks:
Webmaster Tips appears to be an awesome website for anyone looking for help with their website. While I feel like a lot of newer webmasters may have trouble understanding a lot of the tips your website provides, I think the website will be very beneficial to anyone who follows it. The web design is fantastic. Just because of this, I feel like this website has the potential to be something big.
