Great Text. P.S. I don't like green with other colors.
Backup Frequency Asked Questions (FAQ) page is a little long for me.
I agree with francesco - I don't like the lime green - not only doesn't go with the other colors on the page but it is hard to read - could be I need my bifocals adjusted. But otherwise a good site. I recommend it to HEDIR.
I have to "third" the motion on the green font. It's hard to read. The English isn't terrible, but it could use a little polishing. It would vastly improve the professional appearance of the site. The "about" page was particularly rough. Also, the title of the main page isn't clear. The second half should probably read something like: "best data recovery products of 2005"
What is the revenue model for this site? I saw a confusing reference on the about page which seemed to indicate that you are selfish (not your intent, I presume ) and will be linking to partner/affiliate programs for these products. Is that correct?
It looks like the makings of a valuable resource, so I recommend this site.
Nice site, easy navigation and interesting content. Some small comments: besides the lime-green, the font-size of the main content is a bit too small for me on 1600x1200, but it zooms perfectly. More style attributes could be moved to your stylesheet (padding, background-images). I was wondering what the XSL statement is doing in your html tag, isn't this an ordinary html document?
Not sure what his motivation is, since you can't buy the software on the site, as far as I can tell. But hey, nice of him to provide the reviews. I approve.
The site is full of useful content, and although it may not be possible to purchase directly, it's a source of a lot of good information. One thing is that the English needs a little bit of ironing out. Overall, though, the site is good, and

Hello winterfrost.geo, you were very kind to answer me.
You are right, we are choosing the best software vendors now, studying and testing all known backup soft products, which can be useful for an ordinary PC user. And we are going to be an affiliate partner of some vendors after becoming a valuable resource. But we'll want to be a partner of only those companies that develop the most reliable, safest, fastest and the most user-friendly software in order to provide our visitors with better help to choose the most suitable software for their purposes.

Hello baggeroli, thank you for your comment.
Yes, you're right, Backup Software Review is an ordinary HTML site, XSL statement was creating automatically during site generation.
We will improve and polish up our site in the long run certainly.
Thank you for your replies.
I like the site, but the others are right, the green's gotta go. The orange color on the “overall rating“ title would be a good choice for replacement. Your overall layout is nice except for that. Nice, easy navigation. A well organised site. This is a very helpful, informative site for those who need it.
I recommend site to Hedir for resource it provides, although site is little hard to read due to color section it's bit too bright for my eyes. Because of this, I might not stay long time to read all the contents.
I gladly place this site up any time. Sites that write reviews is superb. Clean design, except for the choice of font.
I second the opinion of the quality of writing, you may want to use a spell check, else se's may think your site is not professional and rank you below.
