Do you want my "First Impression"?

Often, people visit your blog to read a post that someone suggested. Whether they stay on your blog or not depends on what impression your blog creates - the FIRST impression.

Believe it or not, a lot of times the first impression does turn out to be the last.

So here's the deal: I will visit YOUR blog & give you MY first impression based on the following parameters:

  1. Layout & Design - impression above & below the fold
  2. Content - freshness and/or intrigue quotient
  3. Writing style - Grammar, Syntax & such
  4. Any other factor you wish to name.

You must be wondering what qualifies me to give you an opinion? Well, I used to work with a web-based usability research company.  For more information about me, check out the about section of my blog here:  http://42quirks.com/about/ 

What do I want in return - NOTHING. Honest. No strings attached. 

Why am I doing this? The truth is, I am more of a reader than a writer. And I am looking for some good reading material. Hence, this offer. 

Simply, leave your blog URL in the comments & I'll reply with my "First Impresssions." Deal?

Cheers!

That's mighty nice of you. I can't beg family and friends enough to give me an unbiased opinion, hence im as anxious as ever wondering about whether Im in the right place or not (as far as my readership is concerned). Ill put a stop to my rambling which always gets ahead of me, and await in hopes to hear from you on all that I can/should fix/add/remove/better...

Looking forward to your reply,

See, THIS is how you should request a review, not just "hi, my blog: RandomURL****" Miss Hayaah, (is it related to Kung Fu or something? *Haiyaaaaa!* I keed, I keed, but still, its interesting. I think I've gotten the Rambling Syndrome from you now :P) Your blog, at first impression (to me), is........ *drumroll* cluttered :/ I mean, I'm not putting another "The template is bad/good", but I find it difficult as to what should i read first? the poem under the title, the blog post, or the poem in the "about me section"? But apart from that, your works are very good, that "what women want" post was thought-provoking! The poems were very interesting, especially "Catcher in the Rye"...

To ALL:

I am really *really* sorry for not replying to any of your posts - but there's been something urgent that's come up at work & I haven't been able to look at anything beyond it! It'll take another few days to sort things out before I can start reading your 'submissions'!

Extremely sorry for the delay! I promise I'll read & post soon...

I hope I am not bothering you guys too much with the wait.
