Ok, its time for my first review. I am looking for any constructive criticism that will help me improve this site.

www.languagelearninglab.com

Neat!  I know where to go if I need to learn some polish!   On your home page in the text you have your site title.  I would capitalize it Language Learning Lab, since it is a title.

You want me to be honest, right. This is a constructive review. 

For me, there are too many Google ads which distracted me from looking at the real content of your site. Even on the Contact page there is a Google search widget, that seemed out of place.

I also thought that the pages loaded too slow, probably from all the ads my guess would be.

I think on the Survival page a neat thing would be to have the visitor click on a button next to the word to actually hear the word pronounced.

I think with less ads but more relevant ads the site would look cleaner and easier to navigate through. To be honest, I was lost and didn't know where you really wanted me, as a visitor, to go to.

Good luck and use this to improve. I am always eager to hear from others here to learn from.

Your site looks great. To the point and very professional. Kudos

thanks for the reviews, i am looking into how to make the necessary improvements.

I wonder what is the best balance between ad revenue and customer sensitivity

You’ve done a nice job designing your site. It’s attractive and pretty well-organized. Here are some thoughts I had after exploring it.

Announce that this is a Polish language site in your header. You have a great domain name, but it gives no indication that your site is about learning Polish. Instead of the tagline “let’s get started,” maybe say “Get started learning Polish!”

The Home page statement “All lessons are free” is puzzling. Except for Lesson 1, the audio lessons are not free. I think you need to rework how you present the free versus not free material.

The About Us page doesn’t say much about you. I didn’t really find anything about the people who are behind the Learning Language Lab.

The Header art is a little boring.  The picture of the old student desk is uninspiring. How about a lively street scene photo from Poland? Check the online stock image sellers for some more interesting imagery.
