Contest Review: Techno Life @ to the PC Requires Corrections
It has been over a month since the contest on this blog started. I was busy with my exams so couldn’t review those who have donated stuffs for the contest but now with 5 days to go you will see all the promised reviews being published and the contest being promoted all over the internet
I had been busy in promoting my first forum (which is for guys who want to discuss issues related to females and for females who would like to help such people) for the last one week and that happens to be one more reason why I wasn’t active with this contest but not now.
In this post I will talk about Techno Life @ tothePC ( which donated one 125×125 ad spot for two months)
Are you using firefox? Then with the first look you will find tothePC to be one of those blogs who believe in ultimate simplicity! And I mean it. Check this screenshot. The reason is the sidebars have slided down? And here comes the funny part. I refreshed the site and it looks fine now.
The about me page links to the contact page plus I could see a rectangular AdSense ad in between the post. Both these were a big turn of for me.
So, is their anything useful in this blog? Yes! The content. Some hight quality articles are being regularly published and I am sure this is the only reason why the blog is still alive. After all the content is the king.
My suggestions for this blog are:
- Get a custom theme/logo. This helps a lot to pimp your blog like it helped me to take my other blog to next level.
- Organize your sidebar. That is the place which helps your readers to dive into your blog’s archives so you need to review it constantly. Once every 20 days.
- Where is your subscribe feed link (and the feedburner image) and the subscribe via email form? These two should be their on the homepage and all other pages.
- In the sidebar in Featured section I could see a G lying their. What is that?
Along with content sometimes you need good publicity and a nice book cover (the blog template) plus also a nice punch line to attract the reader. Get the idea?
I guess these mistakes are happening as their brains have been dumped by mortgage lenders.

Hi there… Theme is all fine… at the time you were reviewing my blog, I was pasting code for modified and more refined theme.
If you see “Techno Life” now, it sports new theme (well almost). Since Sunday is low traffic day and I dont have blog on other blogs, I chose this day to play around with theme.
Your review at that time is ok, probably if you review now - things will look different. In Btw I am still modfying sidebars. Thank you for appreciating content and blog overall.
Nice review… but wrong timming (this part is for me - wrong time for playing with theme) Cheers!!!
