Hi Target

OK had a quick look at your new site using the Firefox browser.

The homepage has 2 columns visible; 1 headed 'Additional Paid memberships' and the 2nd 'List Building', then there is a blank column below the 'categories' tab

Scrolling down I get a large area of blue background with, on the far right hand edge of the screen, the recommended products section, Google adsense block, what's new, membership levels etc. So it would seem there is a possible problem there.

The monetization of the site is comprehensive - the only change I. personally, would make is to give the readers a bit more information per product so they are more persuaded to buy a membership.

You also might think about having a free report available so you can start creating a list - you can then offer this list your membership levels

Otherwise its all good

Yeah, agreed.  Your widgets are all out of whack in Firefox.  Looks ok in IE though.  Make sure that when you are creating new web pages/web sites that your test in Firefox as well as IE.  Should probably start thinking about testing in Chrome as well now since it's gaining in popularity.  (It looks ok in Chrome, BTW.)

Looks good overall.  Great start.

Thanks to all of your feedback. I have been using the updated version of Firefox and IE for editing the profitjumpmembers blog but I did not see the issue that Valpubs and Sean mentioned. Can you tell me if both of you install the current version of Firefox?

I'll include a free offer in the blog. Thanks, folks :-)

The same problem of the blue background with the Flock browser I use.

ok with IE 8.

Nice looking site with potential.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your viewing and encouragement. I checked out with my techie support and found out that if people use the most current version of Firefox 3.6.3 (instead of Firefox 3.5), then my profitjumpmembers.com will appear properly. It's just like what Sean and Jim said that it looked ok in IE 8 (the current version) and Chrome (current version). Isn't it something that the browsers would cheat our eyes?! Thanks again for your feedback.

I probably should put a note about the browser for my visitors in my blog. Cheers!

Hi Target12

I use Firefox 3.6.3. I just looked at your blog and I experienced the same issue that Val described; the two columns (left to right), then a third column is blank/white. Below the two columns is a large blank blue area and to the right of that area (where a column would be) is your "Recommended Resources" section. Part of which is the same width as the blank white column and part of which is a bit wider that the partial column above it.

Tis a puzzle.

I too, use Firefox 3.63 and get the same errors
the folks above are getting.

In addition, I get a scrollbar in IE 8 on a 19"
monitor.

Definitely got problems somewhere.

Hi guys,

Here's a site I came across. http://browsershots.org/ (Of course, not an affiliate link )

I haven't tried it yet but it looked interesting at first look. If you give it a (screen) shot before I do, please let me know if it works as advertised.

Magicman,

I always use this site to check things out before I "tell the world". It takes a while if you check everything, but if you check Firefox, IE, Chrome, and Flock, it's not too bad. (Set it up for when you aren't going to be doing anything anyway. It's not infallible, but sure does save doing most of the checks yourself.)

I've had friends "catch out" their techs by using the site themselves before telling their tech there was a problem.

I am using a MAC and your site looks all messed up, can't make sense of it. There are columns on the bottom that should obviously be on the side...
