How I created and launched a website from the Internet café in Zimbabwe
Good job! I really like the domain name.Here a some ideas for improvements:- It might be a good idea if you'd make subsections for different hiphop genres, for example one for zimbabwean hiphop (e.g. mixdem.com/zimbabwe). People can find you on Google this way if they can search for this hip hop from zimbabwe and you might become the go to place for this specific genre.- Think about using more hiphop (ghetto) language.- Make a logo. It helps for people to recognize/remember your site. It would already help if you just write the name of your site in a cool type face.- It did not see a lot of comments on your site (none actually). This is very important for a community (look at Hacker News for example). Experiment with different ways to get more comments. For example you could put a text box on every page for people to leave a comment, even if they are not logged in. If they try to post a comment you could make them log in or register to post it.- It might be better to embed the videos in the video section directly into your page instead of linking to a page which does. This way people stay on your site, instead of going elsewhere (same of the downloads if it is possible).- Even though it's annoying, you could also put a frame on top of the page, when people click a link to another site. In this frame people could vote up the site or go back to your site to leave a comment.- Maybe add a share on twitter / facebook for specific news items or videos, which people want to share with their friends.- When I am on the page for a specific item I was expecting that clicking on the title would make me go to the site. It took me a second to see that there is actually a button "go to site".I hope you find some of those suggestions useful. It is not meant as criticism.
