I'm interested in hearing your comments and suggestions on my site PublisherSpot.com. There are only 5 reviews currently, so please take that in mind. The "Contact Us" page will also be completed within a day or two.
PublisherSpot.com is a sister site of PublisherForums.com and I plan on merging the two a bit better in the future.
Thanks in advance.

Very nice and easy on the eyes design. Seems very easy to navigate, so that's a plus. The ratings for the networks seem a bit biased, but what can you expect from people? :) The reviews are written very nicely.

Publisherspot.com is a site for professional reviewing of ad networks.
Site opens instantly - below two seconds on 1.44mb/s connection from Europe - but it needs quite some time to load fully.
FIRST THING I've noticed on a site was that "vortex" logo between very nice looking font of Publisher and spot words. Spot sounds to me as a static place, logo gives a circulating feeling and picky as I am, I took right to get confused :) . It looks as a toothpaste squeezed out from the tube...It looks nice to be frank, but it doesn't bring additional information about the site.
Second thing noticed was the browsing fields area - because of orange dots i guess.
Few tests:
Speed test (http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/wso.php?url=http://publisherspot.com/) = perfect , first time seen in my reviews. site would open under 3 seconds on 56K modem...
Browser compatibility (http://browsershots.org/website/http://publisherspot.com/#success)
DNS report (http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=publisherspot.com) shows "missing nameservers".
DNS timing (http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnstime.ch?name=publisherspot.com&type=A) = A+, means fast.
Alertra.com site opening test doesn't show the best times even not from some US servers.
DESIGN: blue/pale yelow color scheme looks good.
NAVIGATION: Upper menu: Browse and search links can be merged in one search link and then browsing and searching options can be all on one page. Browsing possibility from 90 to 10%... - I was surprised. I can't imagine why should I look for an ad network, which is - 30% good. Browsing by categories seems fine, the word categories (when menu is opened) is not necessary.
CONTENT: I don't dare to comment current reviews too much. They can be read smoothly, features are pointed out...you write them in the not-the-shortest-way, some comments repeat here and there.
SEO comments:
The actual site's TITLE in the <title> tag is: Welcome to PublisherSpot.
BACKLINKS which come from TylerCruz.com have no anchor text.
__________________________________________________ _______________
CONCLUSION: Design is very good, navigation tips can be considered, anchor text should contain "reviews of ad networks", I guess.

Seriously boron had touched on every major point and submerge had given his views on how nice this design is.
What i would like to say is, you might want to consider using the space on your background and wider your content, it seems a little tight, i am not sure what you can add but with the extra space you can surely add in more things and a better space to breath.

It needs to be updated more, the last updates were almost a month and a half apart from the looks of it. It also needs more features its pretty baisc.
I think you should have a link in the man navigation that says learn more about affiliate programs and link to this forum.

Very nice layout. Love the color palette. Code validates with no errors or warnings. Sire loads very fast. The overall feel is calm which makes one want to stick around and read more. I like the search reviews feature, pretty slick. Overall I think the site looks great! Good job.
