Is new website better than old one?

[MyWebsiteAdvise]

Hello,

I almost finished with website migration to new platform.
Now, before I move to new website I interesting to know your opinion.

Old website url:http://www.mywebsiteadviser.com/
New website url http://www.mywebsiteadviser.com/wp/

Which website do you like more, the old or new one ?
Is the right side new website menu (categories) looks ok ?
Feel free to write what do you think :)

Many thanks,
Alex

Hello Alex,

In my opinion, WordPress is always better :) You should work on the theme a bit though, looks a bit too "bloggy" if you know what I mean. A professional of the field like you must have a unique and professional looking website. As an experienced WP designer, I think you should do some work for a great professional-looking design that would make the customers stay a bit more to take a better look at your services :)

The orange hover menu looks AWESOME by the way, the top menu is a bit unnecessary though. Plus the sidebar menu is a bit too "90s" :/

erevos,

thanks for your response.

Can you please show me some modern menu ?

I'll be glad if you can post here some examples of great professional-looking design.

many thanks,
Alex

First of all are you a designer or a coder?

I like the new one.

The content on the homepage looks a bit thin though.

erevos, thanks.
I'm a pure coder.

donatello, I appreciate your opinion. Thank you!

Oh 100% coder eh? Thank God for you people, most of my freelancing jobs are from coders who can't design well :P

Take a look at this (http://www.newconcept.hu/), this (http://www.prophetofnoise.com/wordpress/) and this (http://www.theoldstate.com/blog/) for some fresh ideas. More on request :)

The one in the middle is my design, of course it does not compete with the other ones :P

Thanks, only the second one is mine though :P I found the other ones as really good examples of sidebars.
