This blog is growing by the day, and I’ve always tried to take reader advice into account while making it grow. Of course, I do not listen and follow 100% of the ideas put forward, or else this would descend into chaos, but the good ones I do try and listen to - even if I don’t act upon them immediately, they’ll remain in the back of my mind.

I’m at a little bit of a crossroads now regarding TUK, and one of the things I’ve always talked about is asking your audience to figure out what they want. I wrote a post about that sometime on here but can’t remember the title - anyways, the basic idea is rather than analyse hundreds of facts and figures, just ask the people you’re pitching to what their ideas are.

I get a lot of private feedback - be it by email, comments on here, instant messenger conversations… the amount of feedback is insane. Here’s the chance for some public feedback. I did this before too, but at the time I was pretty busy… now I have time to make the necessary changes. Any comments you make on this post will be looked at, as all comments are on this blog - I’ll seriously consider the best ones.

One of the things I’ve been asked about is a custom theme for this blog - now, I do have licenses to a few premium themes, and currently use John Cow’s Milk It theme (albeit heavily customized) for this blog, however a custom theme with top notch graphics would take this blog to the next level, or so I’ve heard.

Personally, I’m happy with the current one but wouldn’t mind putting some money forward to get a custom one created; what I’ve heard is that posts are difficult to read on here with the current settings. I do not use images much, if it all in posts here - they tend to be just text. The reason for this is that I don’t have the time to spend hours a day putting out pretty looking images that ultimately don’t help you, and would rather concentrate on content (and other ventures…). If it is hard to read posts on here though, a custom theme might be the way forward. Let me know!

Other points that have been raised are a weekly live kind of chat show - be it plain text or otherwise, video, a paid membership course about website flipping, more interaction (a weekly reader highlight for example)… loads of ideas. Feel free to put any more forward, be it ideas for posts you’d like to see, design, website features, questions, blog changes (ex bringing back dofollow or introducing threaded comments) - rather than wasting my time and yours with changes that aren’t needed, let’s discuss what is.

By the way, I means men and women in the title. Just a general term, don’t want to appear sexist :razz:

Thanks in advance for all input. :)
