Just look in the upper right hand corner of the header and there should be a small RSS icon. Click on that and you will be good to go!

I’m Out!

Thanks for putting yourself out there, Kristina. Awesome!

Although between us, I think the only people who ever read it are folks that click through from Zen Habits. I don’t know what is up with that but if you ever get one of the first comments on ZH, about 80 people will click through and all they’ll look at is your About Page. It kind of freaks me out. No offense Leo, if you are reading. Love ya!

I LOVE this new feature. I agree with the others; Kristina is brave to be the first, but after reading your critique, everything you said is spot on. When others land on our blogs, those first few seconds are the most important. If they stick around long enough to dig, it should all tie together – kinda like a pretty package.

I’m thinking about what you said about her wide header as mine is extremely big. For now I still like it, but knowing me, someday it will change.

Thank you for the link to the guest post you did on my blog. Not only was it well written and informative, the responses were superb. You have the knack to get all of us thinking.

For those wondering “What do you do if you’re not too attractive”, I wrote a humorous piece (though it has some good advice) over at Blogging Without a Blog in April (which actually gave me the idea to start this makeover series to help people). Anyway, here’s the link. http://bloggingwithoutablog.com/does-an-ugly-blogger-stand-a-chance/

Matt – Thank you and yes, they are all fairly simple fixes that Kristina can implement.

janice – See the above link for the “ugly bloggers” for my thoughts on this subject.

Paisley – I agree, a photo is NOT an absolute Must-Have. I only suggested the photo for Kristina because she is already using it on her other web sites and social media pages; it seemed a natural evolution to also use it on her site.

Tracy – For me, your blog is about your personality – an eclectic mix which works perfectly. Not all blogs have to be ABOUT one particular subject. Kristina’s blog can easily be a personal blog just about her experiences, thoughts, etc… there is nothing wrong with that. We just suggested a bit of clarity on the About page might help readers figure out what the blog is about more easily. And if Kristina wants to use her site for business, she may want to sharpen her focus on specific areas. But back to your blog, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Marc – Thank you for the nice words. And don’t let Sean’s beaming wide smile fool ya! It’s just to distract you from his beaming wide nose. Just as I use a cartoon to hide my beaming wide belly.

Kristina – We may do follow-ups once blogs have made changes. Reviews are fairly time consuming (yours took about five hours to review and write), so We will likely reserve MOST follow ups, before and after for paid clients to show the whole process more clearly. Since you are our first, though, we will definitely revisit your site, so long as you would like us to.

Vered – Thank you.

dinu – Agreed. Fortunately, a custom banner goes a long way towards improving even the most basic of themes.

Hey Dave, is there a follow up? For example, check back a year later…did she implement the corrects? have things improved? Just an idea I thought I would throw out there.
