It's not, but thanks anyway. I'm not looking for comments on the content, just the design.

Hi Leeshaw
I will not comment upon the contents as requested. All I will say is look at your competitors sites and evaluate if your site is as good and will produce the visitors you need.
To me the design needs lifting. There are no pictures, graphics or anything to keep the visitor and tempt that person to view the contents. The opening page is very empty of content and the dark blue emphasises this.
I personally don't like long pages although it seems standard with this form of promotional site.
The wording is hard up to the left hand side and I feel you should have some space there.
Two of the navigation button wordings do not sit comfortably in the designated areas. Also the font used is not easy to read and is too small. People with sight difficulties could have problems.
Hope this is some help.

The banner looks very poorly made, as though it is Word Art or similar. That gives a very amateur feel to the whole site.
You have far too many different fonts on the page, including one that few people will have, called Cupid. I have something like 3000+ fonts at my disposal, but Cupid is not amongst them. You also have on the page Arial, Comic Sans and Times New Roman in various sizes. Choose one heading font and one body font and size, then standardise it across the page. It will give a more cohesive and professional effect.
I agree with Golfer that you need some padding between your Steps and the left edge of the yellow container.
Also, you need to standardise your formatting. Some of the "Step" headings are centred, others are left aligned.
I also agree that the page is far too long. I'd be tempted to place only Step 1 on the first page and then create separate pages for each Step.
Lose the counter - it is very unprofessional, because they are so easily faked. Look at any professional modern site, you will not see counters. They are very "last century". If you need to know how visitors you are getting, consult the stats program that comes with your hosting package.

Thank you Kitka. I'll be using some of your suggestions tonight. That's what I like about the FP group, most are very helpful.

Well, I clicked on one of your ads (the one for Traffic Sw*rm) and you should design a site that looks just like theirs. You are welcome for the .02 that my clicking on that link paid you.
The site seems, as was said above, like a get rich quick scheme. That is a comment on the design, in that, it was initial reaction.
Of course, if someone wanted to make money, they could sign up with all the same affiliates you did and then offer the same "service" you do to others. Hmm...
