hey guy, your link is broken ; do you mean this one: smarttechblog.com/ ?
Link you have in Post is broken but signature link is working.
There isn't much to review about. Layout looks clean and simple. But having too much ash color has given it bit a dull look. white or other color in left column might give more alive look.
sorry I had posted a wrong link and the new link has been fixed.
Thanks,
onkar

Thanks for your honest review mate.
I have made a few changes in the background,Please have a look and you are always welcome for your suggestions.
Hi Onkar,
If this is the start, then this is the good start.
But the thing is to have quality posts at your blog.
You may invite guest writers to contribute to your blog, thsi way your blog will stay updated you would have enough time to work out for the other quality measures of your blog.
Good Luck!
Thanks for your feedback buddy.
Also few more changes have been made in the site,please feel free to visit the site Smart blog for Smart People and please provide me with your valuable feedback.

The blog is simple yet sophisticated. I don't know if it's smart enough that you play with the colors safe. But it's pretty cool though.
My Pleasure.Thanks for your feedback buddy.

I have seen the changes, You have changed the font in the header. The earlier one was also good though.
and its good to see more quality posts on your blog.
and rest is also fine.
Keep it up!
I think now it looks much better.
Still you have the content problem. Posts are too small. Make posts which has at least 350-500 words. It's hard to get ranked in search result unless.
Thanks a lot for giving your honest reviews, Please feel free to share your reviews any time.

Yeah, surely I am working on the quality and quantity of the post. I think I will need some time to get thing going as expected,
1- Write a better/longer meta description
2- Always add alt tekst to images
3- Dont stuff your meta keywords
4- Remove link to WP-Admin in footer
5- Are those "Online CPM Advertising" links yours? Or do you need to add them? If not, try to remove 'em
6- Remove nofollow tag from link to comments
7- Content. Write more!
Hi Onkar,
I have seen the new theme of your blog. It looks pretty nice plus its good to see more quality and regular posts on your blog.
The only thing you need is to grow the visitors and readership of your blog. I feel you might also need to increase the categories on your blog as tech world is a Giant world. So, keep it up and good luck!
I've already seen this theme at other website today, but with more post images. As to your site, will recommend to think about background color changing, as it blends a little with layout color combination, thus it seems too grayish, thus toneless. Overall, it's well done and managed
looks like spam... try to reduce...Code:<meta name="keywords" content="tips to avoid cellphone radiation,cellphone radiation,radiation,google plus,gogole+,google plus tips,google+ tips,google,oracle,apple,sony,hp,compaq,yahoo,go google...services that google provides!!!! ,google services,five easy ways to back up data on your pc,data backup,backup,google plus secret commands,google+,gsm is 20! transcript of world's first such call,facebook to launch ''something awesome'' next week: zuckerberg,facebbok,facebook,surprise,facebook surprsie,whats new in google+,google+ features,about google+" />
As I know... Google will ignore after 10 Keywords.
Wordpress got enough backlinks and your Blog is very new... so try to reduce your external Links or you will never get an higher Pagerank.Code:<div id="credits">Powered by <a href="http://wordpress.org/"><strong>WordPress</strong></a>
Your Domain already have the words "smart tech blog.... so you dont need the words in the title...Code:<title>SMART TECH BLOG - smart blog for smart people...</title>
Better add your most important Keywords in your Title!
Your Keyword density is:
google - 4.74%
2011 - 2.79%
july - 2.79%
admin - 2.79%
tips - 1.95%
You can easily Rank on "Google Tips" so better put the Keyword "Google Tips" in your Title..
If this where my own Blog I will use:
Code:<title>Google Tips and more > for Smart People like you!</title>

For an new Blog its tooooooooo much!!!
Try to use only 4 external links... and after 1 year you can use more... or you will never get an better PageRank.
h1-Tag(s) -> Not Found (veeeeery Baaad!!!)
h2 Tag(s) ->
h3-Tag(s) -> Not Found
You have only 2 Words in Bold Text (baaaaaaaad!)
so add the most important Keywords in h1, h2 and h3 tag (only use 1x h1 tag!!!)
Your Pictures are tagged with an alt attribute and keyword inside... (gooooooood!)
Add rel="nofollow" to your Social Buttons!
Add rel="nofollow" to http://smarttechblog.com/disclaimer/ and set a disallow at robots.txt to the disclaimer site!
Add rel="nofollow" to http://feedburner.google.com/
Replace "Our Supporters" section with your facebook fanpage section. I mean.. put the ads on top and try to use only 1 ad-banner!
Also 65 HTML validation errors and 8 CSS errors. This may cause search engines to parse your content incorrectly.
I had a client once who had 145 errors (give or take), they ranked really well for font names like arial, gothic, etc.. as their code was badly broken.
And I agree with seobunny there are way too many keywords in the meta keywords area. There are probaby not enough in the description.
You have 45 lines in your <head></head> section. If it were me I would condense your styles.css files into one file and clean up whatever other gear you can in the header.
The search engines only spend a certain amount of time reading your page, so if they don't parse all of your content in one go, important content in your page can possibly be missed.
Forget about HTML and CSS Validation...
Google will doesnt count this Factor! The only Thing is.. be sure that your site have no broken links otherwise the google bot got killed.
Google self has more than 30 errors haha: [Invalid] Markup Validation of http://www.google.de/ - W3C Markup Validator
About that ON-Page stuff, just follow basic rules of SEO and that is it, don't try to over optimize stuff, I see many people are into all kind of SEO software which analyze your page and stuff(I was like that in the past ), but don't waist your time on this it is only good for basic ON-page SEO.
Make pages for users not bots, google will find his way...
What matters is visitors experience, so make sure that visitors like your pages(I don't mean FB likes, but they are OK too ) and try to make it user friendly, like website structure, website speed, great content not written only for SEs, etc, etc...

Haha I want to give Admin an Infraction for double posting :P
Anyway... just follow what admin says..
build your sote for real humans... not for robots...
The very important thing is the quality of your content! You get only popular not by ranking high on SERPs... by posting quality Content... which is for real humans very interessting... and the benefit is that the humans maybe will come back to your site again to read new interessting stuff and informations.
