How User Friendly Is Your Blog?

Since I've read hundreds of blogs over the last seven months, I have come to the conclusion that what sounds good in theory doesn't always work on a computer screen. One of my pet peeves about some blogs is that the background is black. Personally, I hate the black background because I cannot read the blog, even if it sounds intriguing. Couple the black background with a small font, in any color, and chances are people are missing out on what you're writing, which is a shame. Also, unique templates are fabulous, but ones that are too ambitious, drown out the writer's thoughts and become the focal point of the blog. The same goes for too many affiliate ads. By the time you've had a chance to scan the whole page, the interest is gone and on to the next blog. So, from my own perspective of course, keep the template simple, the background light and the font big enough for everyone to read on a computer screen. I'm sure some of you will either agree or disagree, but your comments are always welcome!
