Hi, i managed to create a new seo tools analysis website from zero from January this year. I've put all my free time in it and i think it looks nice. Tools are also awsome, but i need to optimise it to attract more visitors. Shortly, here it is SEOAnalytic.com

This site rocks! I was looking for something like this that has lots of tools in one spot. I do feel though that the site needs some more color. Perhaps just a green rollover for the location links and possibly the information about the tools on the main page.
Even without these changes though the site looks really good and i will come back. I give it a 9.5 out of 10. nice job!

Hi FrostBoost,
Sorry it took me so long to get to this site!
The collection of tools looks good from what I can tell. I'm not a big user of these things though. The design is very monochromatic and a bit boring. I'd like to see some more colour throughout. The greys that you are using aren't quite right - the top header grey has much more saturation (sort of blue), while the boxes lower down are less saturated. You can tell that the top bar looks more blue-ish while the rest of the grey is more neutral/brown-ish.
I also think this would be better if there were fewer grey boxes and it had more of a clean look. I generally don't think it's necessary to create more boxes when you don't need to. For example, around the breadcrumbs.
The "knowledge is the key to success" tagline is very vague. You could use that on any website really. Try to think of something that's more relevant to your site.
Hope that helps,
Megan

I like the colors personally (orange and gray shades), but it would look alot better (to me) if some of the text or the text links were done in the same orange color, and the orange color was used in other places of the website as well.
Ive always loved a color scheme of a bright color (orange, green, neon-blue, etc) over shades of a darkish gray. But I really dont think you bring the highlight color (orange) into the scheme of the website enough.
Also, the website loads improperly and puts boxes of stuff in areas where it obviously shouldnt be, its glitching out to an extent on my computer. Im using an Apple iMac with OS X 10.2 and the latest version of FireFox. Not sure why its giving me the layout glitches.
UNLESS thats the way the sites supposed to look?? If so it doesnt have a very clean appearance in that regards. By this I mean the gray boxes below overlap the bright orange area at the top, but at the far left and right sides, the gray boxes dont overlap the orange there and to me personally it looks sort of awkward.
