Just to let you and everyone else know, Mike is no longer writing here. I similar experience with Mike as Stefan did. Needless to say, Mike has some character issues.

Mike:

What’s your reply to the last comment dated Nov. 13, 2010? Did you rip some one off and disappear or what? I anxiously await your side of the story.

Dear All,

I just thought I share my views on Mike Smith with everybody. We have recently contracted him to do our web-site but unfortunately the deal did not work out. While we have tried to resolve the situation, Mike Smith has not made any efforts to find a solution. He simply stopped replying. While we paid him a lot of money in advance, he did not deliver. The quality of work was very average and his attention to detail questionable (developed business card templates with spelling errors). Overall, we paid him US3,500 to get one logo, a business card and an e-mail signature. When the actual work should have start, Mike stopped responding to our e-mails.

Thank you .

Regards,

Stefan

Nice tips!I would also like to read the author’s opinion on optimizing web design for sites that sell multiple models of machines.

Thanks for the feedback.

I assume the stuff on the right that you’re referring to is the advertisements? If I removed the advertisements, WDL would no longer be. They keep this site going by providing revenue.

Nice article. I’m always looking to improve my work, but sadly, this article didn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know…
I do have an observation though:
I came to this post and I found exactly what I was looking for. As a result, I simply read the article. My eyes never once drifted over to the right side of the page for longer than was necessary to determine what it was. The same can be said about the links between the end of the article and the comment form… I scrolled right past them.
My question is this: Why is this extra content here? All that resulted from it was a slower load time on my browser. In my opinion you could do far worse than removing the stuff on the right side of the page and replacing it with the links to other articles that just seem to float in the middle of nowhere…

Sigh, I am hooked to twitter followers now. All the people actually really don’t do a great deal for me, yet , it just simply delivers me a content effect on the inside being aware of that men and women are actually, well probably reading through what I write about.
