I can second that

[Mark]

This web page is not available

Not working for me

[Trinity]

So is it supposed to be .com (like in the title) or .net (like in the post)? The .com works, but it's full of spelling mistakes and poorly worded content.

[peteyt]

I've seen worse but the logo seems very out of place

[Aiden]

it seems a little blurry in the logo and i dont like it tbqh :s

[A]

sites not working for me, however good-luck I suppose x

[Mark]

Just to add, I'm pretty sure that's a layout anyone can buy. I don't really see the relation between the layout and a radio site also.

Lol just looked on the request page:
"Note: Some presenters may not take no requests at all so if it dont get read or played then please try the next presenter."

[abysradio]

Apologies but it has all been fixed and sorted, had a problem with host. Also the website look has been changed as well! let me know what you think about it now!

As for the requests, reason why that is put there is because some shows are not live, and some shows are syndicated shows where a presenter owns the show and broadcasts it on multiple stations. So not all requests would get read out on air.

I think he was probably pointing out that it's horribly written. I checked a few pages on your site and every single one had multiple spelling mistakes and poorly written content like I said earlier. Even the site's name is spelt wrong in the footer.

Also, you didn't answer my question. Is it supposed to be .com (like in the title of this post) or .net (like in the body of the post, although the .net doesn't seem to exist)?

Im afraid not all radio layouts are all like habbo fansites! Most normal radio's are nothing like habbo fansites, but every normal station has there own unique style.

It is a .com domain name, i will change it in the post. As for spelling mistakes, i know there are many and i was not pointing out tmy spelling mistakes for the requests. What i meant was what i said, and nothing else. I am getting someone to proof read it today and to get all spelling mistakes/grammer sorted.

So every time I change page your radio player stops. It's a poor site all around.

Why are you bringing habbo fansites into this? I said your site layout doesn't look like a radio site layout. That has nothing to do with habbo fansites. It looks like a generic, dull layout that you've added a radio player to.

I never said you were pointing out the mistakes, I said Mark probably was.

That was the death of me, just out of curiosity... I'm guessing you're using an auto DJ or leaving your Sam Broadcaster on?

Yeah I was pointing out the many grammatical errors and spelling mistakes

As people have pointed out Habbo was never mentioned.

I wasn't keen on your previous site but I think the new one is no better and if anything possibly worse. The problem comes down to branding - there's no identity.

The big popular radio sites you see will use imagery related to radio, music etc. This helps sell the brand - when you look at their sites you immediately know what their purpose is because the imagery, content etc. all represents the correct industry. That's why Habbo fansites often look identical because people identify Habbo with certain imagery. This doesn't mean you have to use generic designs, but your design should represent your actual site.

The problem here being it doesn't. It looks to me like you've taken a free template and just started using it as a radio site, the design to me looking more suited to a general site, possibly a blog site. Also there's also branding confusion now due to the fact you've changed the name of the site but not the domain. A new logo would also be good.

No seems to just be a podcast now. I don't mind podcasts but It's tricky to entertain people with them and if you can't entertain them they'll just go and listen to what they want on YouTube or something
