Sure.
(1) Main site is not a .com, so he will loose traffic as people type in the .com. It is also less brandable.
(2) The blog domain sucks. Clearly it was set up to try to get affiliates but then uses it for so called fans.
(3) He has given all the content away for free on the blog. This is a solo model site and no one needs to join as they have seen the content. I knew a lot of affiliates who said they would not promote his site as he had given so much away free in a sad desperate attempt to get people to the site.
(4) Ugly on the eye. It is an ugly theme. Looks basic.
(5) Messy. Notice how he has filled the blog with too many links and adverts. Just looks bad in these days. Keep your blog clean and no mess.
(6) No twitter link. What moron has no twitter these days.
I can go on and on, but basically the blog they have looks a mess and ugly, and it is not sexy.
You need to remember that you have a few seconds to grab people are they will leave.
A .com that sounds nice will help, as it is the first thing they often see.
In this case the person going to the blog will think it is about making money (nataliekash - kash). As such people will have already left.
But the K in Kash makes it harsh to read. Not sexy at all.
Basically Gary has no idea what he is ding. The advice he posts is stuff often he has read others post or he has found after a google search, in order to get a post in a thread, He basically is wanting to have his sig in as many posts as he can hoping affiliates promote his site.
One tip though, is do not worry about making a mess of things. As you will lean each time.
I have just started a few new blogs and each time you improve.
Word Press is powerful, and you can do many things with it.
