The trick to creating a successful website is not just how aesthetically pleasing it is to visitors, but the quality of content. And I think yours is not bad at all concerning that. However, as for the design and interface, a lot of people, including some of us here have stressed the importance of simplicity, and I agree with that too. However, simplicity shouldn't be confused with amateurism. For example, if you prefer to put a a simple layout with plain colors, it's good to concentrate on some specific graphics, such as the logo, to make your site look more professional. Remember, visitors would never come back if they think the website they just visited was created by somebody just to past his time. I'm not saying that yours looks amateurish but there's room for improvement. For instance, you could try and add more graphics on the homepage. You can take a look at my website to have an idea of what I'm saying - http://www.zofanatic.com.

If you check out the shoutbox on the right hand corner, you'll understand that this gives you the advantage of tracking how many visitors are interested with your website, and also adds more interactivity between visitors. But it's gonna require you to take a few php scripting tutorials to set up one if you're not familiar with it.

You should also really consider creating a forum, in which fans of keego could discuss about the model, or anything else they want to. This will certainly bring more traffic to your website, I guarantee from experience. (you can easily set up a forum with trap17. example, like this - http://www.keegonguyen.com/forum/index.php)

As for the guestbook, if TRAp17 also has a ready-to-install php guestbook, the one I'm using myself. So, you need not sign up with other websites such as smartgb.com for a free guestbook. Like I mentioned before, we need to make the site look as professional can be so an url such as http://www.keegonguyen.com/gbook.php would look more professional than the one you're using now i.e. http://users3.smartgb.com/g/g.php?a=s&i=g35-16027-1a, which is totally unrelated to www.keegonguyen.com.

Overall, your site seems great and I wish you all the best.

Hope this helps...

im impressed its simplicity does you all the justice in the world.
Maybe you could create a stunning flash box for an intro to make the site come to life a bit more?
But it really is a good site. And the pictures are beautiful.

Nice colours, and general layout is cool. Although I think you could of added a bit more graphics, or used better image manuplation software. That's all I think.

i liked your color balance, easy to look at
as i had a look for few sec it's a pure advertising website which tries to promote a business

- firstly i liked few parts
- secondly for suggestion:
why don't you add some big signs to show what is this website about? i'm trying to say when i'm coming to the website i wanna get why is it up there within 5 seconds. i just wanna say a website is up there to promote something, it could be there to:

- sell product
- provide online services (like this forum)
- providing information 24/7
- introducing a new business
- ....

your dear website should say it in very details that what is it doing. if it's there to introduce a new business then there should be some bold fonts to say what is this business about and proudly say what they doing? hope i made my point. understand the visitor who is there to find what he/she is after as soon as possible + neath design. (which u have the last one so work on the better understanding of the business and home page content)
