 * I’m worried my site looks somewhat unprofessional and too much like a blog if
   that makes sense.
 * I have tried to arrange my pages in a organised fashion but I cant help but feel
   the linear post system and lack of elements on the mainpage is holding the appearance
   of the website back.
 * Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. [](http://www.tenguage.com)

 * Your blog needs a lot of work, here are a few quick things you can improve on.
 * 1) I would suggest you to go with a different theme, quite a few things of this
   theme is not looking good, the background image is a bit too loud, the header
   does not seems good… the sidebar should be on the other side, as you said it 
   yourself, you want to make it look better. Try a magazine theme, that will make
   your blog look fuller.
 * 2) apart from that, get some more social media attention to your blog, get a 
   twitter profile and a facebook fan page, get some social buttons and setup a 
   feedburner feed signup, etc.
 * 3) Get a good logo, something brandable.
 * keep it updated,
    cheers,

   you could recommend?

 * [@waller93](https://wordpress.org/support/users/waller93/), definitely a better
   looking theme and the background image is good too… over all, it is better now.
   Keep adding more content, write bigger articles… and yes, get a good logo or 
   a better header.
    cheers,

 * Built it seperately from wordpress with a wysiwyg editor, then found wordpress
   to be much better so I changed my original site to link to my new wordpress page
   as I still had my domain parking in place.

 * Yeah that enter page has to go. Why give your visitors an extra step just to 
   get to your content? On the blog itself I agree with others that you need a new
   header logo and a less noisy background. Check out :
    [http://subtlepatterns.com/](http://subtlepatterns.com/)
   if you’re looking for a gentle, free, background pattern. Also, You’re mixing
   styles with the logo being an old-school, 8-bit, pixelated style and the smooth
   WordPress theme. You should pick one or the other.
 * Also, and I’m not sure if it’s just my browser, but your Adsense blocks between
   each post are not showing up and just look like a weird block of white space.
 * Good luck!
