Check your opening page. Get a friend to have a look at it and give you constructive feedback. Does your opening page:
Feel inviting?
Appear engaging?
Offer all the necessary tools at once, such as joining information, search information, good introductory information?
Look at your content. Is it able to keep a reader? Be very honest about this aspect. If your site is full of rehashed, repetitive information that teaches a reader nothing new, or fails to provide interesting insights that engage the reader fully, you won't keep your readers interested.
If you are selling things, are your descriptions of the product or services complete, adequate, and engaging?
If you are offering reading matter, are you adding new and interesting angles that the reader hasn't yet being exposed to?
If you are offering things to do, such as games, etc., are these good quality, interesting, and better than those offered by competing websites?
