Yikes, how small is that text, jeez

What does the header have to do with anything.

cross-browser check blake, make sure you dont have multiple font color tags on html or css...

That is so weird, on my computer the font is a very light color...

eek, what have you done.

Ok looking at your source there is text there, your using a very very dark blue font on a black background which equals totally unreadable.

While the logo looks like linkexchange's if used it should be at the very top, and to be taken seriously maybe a white background with white text, or if you insist on the black use a light grey (medium size) text so is readable.

Is to dark to see if you have any links or anything on that page

OK I redid the whole thing. How about we try this again eh?

The side ads are over powering, even though they are less than a 1/3rd of the screen (at 800x600) the text is very minimal and small, use a larger font and add some more oringal text for each page, the text on the main page is repeated on every page except two.

For a very basic layout your page size is 59 kb
Loose some of the drop shadows, the link buttons could/should be done in text, and if you kep that yellow (ugly yellow) use a border colour around it or something, use more CSS than images.
A decent logo is needed and ideally another domain name as that one is not one that people would take serious, well the domain name is, the redirection place isn't

You are lucky.

If you saw two google ads, then you saw one from the banner exchange on the top and the rela one on the left. I have never seen that before haha.

I monkeyed around with the text middle and made it look a bit more presentable I think, you were right about how cluttered it looked before.

Keep the suggestions coming.

Yikes! This is really not a web design at all. It's some plain text thrown up on the screen with a bunch of google ads.

I hate to say it but you would be much better off using a template for this. That would allow you to present a more professional image. As a visitor I would not give this site any credence at all. It looks like no attention has been put into the website at all. With all the competitiveness in this field, you have to have a decent looking website.

THe google ads are also very overpowering here. It looks like the site is just about the google ads, and not about the content. Change the colour scheme on those so they fade out a little bit, and consider reducing to 1 block instead of 2. More space around the navbar would be helpful so it stands out more than the ads do.

A better logo would also be a huge improvement. Try playing with fonts and colours there, and think about some sort of symbol to use along with it.

Good luck with the site!
