Announcement: You can use the Hedir Review Center to do site reviews. Please note that the review center is still in beta stage and may have some bugs. Report them in this thread.
==============================================

Our emphasis is on content. We believe that a site should be informative to be of some value to its visitors. We have classified such sites into the following categories:

Offering product information
Offering service information
Offering current industry news, research information, tutorials and reference material

Review for such sites can be done in two ways:

General Review on informative value of the site
Technical Review

General Review:

Check that the site belongs to one of the above categories.
Check that the site has enough informative content.
Check that the intended visitors of the site will benefit by visiting the site.

Technical Review:
Please check the following points in a technical review,

Overall structure of the site
Logo of the site
Headers and Footers
Navigational structure
Color schemes used
Pop ups on site pages
URL formats
w3c XHTML/HTML validation

[Added: One of our moderators Google Junky has created THIS HANDY TOOL for checking websites. Give it a try.]

We encourage you to do both types of reviews for a site. It will help the webmaster of the site in planning future developments. Also, do not forget to vote yes/no for the site as the listing of the site depends on the number of yes/no votes the site gets along with other factors.

If this process is not clear to you or you have queries on this post, please post them here
