Hi Kamalika, 

Writing as I go through the blog:

1. Look and Feel : Eyecatching and good. Especially the header image, it conveys totally what the blog is all about. However, the body of the Home page looks a little cluttered. Consider cleaning it up a bit ?

2. Content: Very good. I can see that you are already an established blogger and are doing quite well. keep it up.

3. Social Media interaction: Lots of it. In fact you might need to get rid of some redundant widgets to make it look cleaner. 

4. Frequency: You are posting once a week at an average. Consider increasing the frequency ?

Overall a good blog and you are doing quite well :)

Hi,

Thanks for reviewing my blog.

May I know about which theme you are talking about that u didn't like?

What is 15'' CRT? Sorry I have very poor knowledge on the abbreviations....

Everything is center aligned because I wanted it to look so.....

15" CRTs are old monitors which were square and not like we have now. Since you are using the full width of a page, in a square monitor the alignement will not be proper. But the number of such monitors is quite less now and will go down even further.

Looking at the marquee scroll, I get a feeling that my CPU is overloaded and the text is not able to slide across the screen smoothly.

The big header image looks good.

I see that the aspect ratio of the images displayed on the home page along with post snippets is not being maintained. Change it if it is possible.

Recent posts gadget : The text in it isn't looking good enough with just one or two words on a line.

Check Bttempltes! You templete width is very large, that decreases my attention. 

I have to move my eyes here and there to absorb the information.

The Big Header image is a distraction, considering the size of the texts of your menu. 

So here's my advices - Change your templte and choose proper fonts and sizes to highlight the different sections of your website.

Lots of content - and that what i liked initially. But yes as a few people said - it does look a bit cluttered. 

First suggestion - reduce the width of your header image , I guess that is what is making the site to get spread more.

 

2nd find a template that is "responsive" ( you might one in the standard template list of blogger too - it make the site adjust automatically depending upon the visiters screen and its resolution)

 

3rd - rearrange the widgets you have on side bars; put the one that interests the visitors more than the others.

 

And then keep on blogging !!
