Review

Owner

The owner of The 10 Doctors talks to visitors a lot in the cbox, which is very warming, and the friendliness of chats in the cbox and in the posts, makes you want to stay on the site longer. Most comments towards the site are replied to and the choice of words in the posts makes the site on a whole a great place to be!

Layout

A very clear and organised layout also draws you to the site. The background colour is a light grey, with the posts background black, and the sidebar a dark blue. Everything looks very neat, with an equal amount of writing and colourful pictures. This is helpful, as on some sites there can be too much writing and not a lot of pictures, and some with too many pictures, with a lack of writing. There's not one dark corner on The 10 Doctors. Everything looks great... and is!

News Posts

I think this could be the main problem on the site, which unfortunately is the main part of the site. The news posts are not very frequent, and so you don't get a lot of news just from looking at this site. They used to be more regular, but that seems to have slipped a touch. But anyway, when news is posted, they are detailed and always contain pictures, which breaks the text up for easier reading. They are always accurate and reliable, which is a great advantage.

Spelling and Grammar

The spelling and grammar are of the highest standard avaliable, with a mistake occuring hardly ever. The posts are very well structured, which helps the grammar, and makes the site very professional. You can see the work put in too get things right very clearly!

Pages

There are a few great pages for The 10 Doctors, which should keep you on the site for a little while longer. 

• The main part of the pages are the episode guides. These are for every episode of new series Doctor Who. They contain a picture and the synopsis. I think there could be more included on these guides though. Possibly more detail about writers, and possible cast? Just a thought. 
• Another one are the site videos. These are just fun videos people have made, and they are great fun to watch. 
• The other are the links, which are compiled of various different sites, official or fan-made. A good selection if you want to see some other fantastic sites. I think there could be more pages, which more updates on them, but apart from that, not bad!
  

Sidebar

The sidebar is jammed packed full of features. Too many to list in fact, so I'll talk about a few highlights. At the top a welcome sign is shown and it talks a little bit about the site, and what you can do on it. Below that is a slideshow of all ten Doctors, naturally for a site of the name it has. Pages are displayed under this, as well as a poll and a countdown to Christmas. Below those is a funny fact about Doctor Who, which is great, apart from I think it should be changed once in a while. Apparently the site was awarded the Medal of Awesomeness, and there is quite a long paragraph about the Doctor and Doctor Who. The chat box lets the owner and visitors communicate, and then there are the links to the episode guides, by episode. You can then suscribe to the site if you want and read about the owner. After which you can fllow the site, find out how many visitors there have been and go to old posts. I think the sidebar is a highlight in itself.

Other Features

Banner; The banner for The 10 Doctors has been made exclusively to the site by Jake from Doctor Rumours. It features logos and the ten Doctors, but unfortunately looks a bit messy. This is not the owner's fault however. I wouldn't know what to suggest in this case.

atts key suggestions

• More frequent news posts
• Possibly a few more pages?

Note - these are only suggestions, which you may or may not want to take into account.

Overall

A great good-looking site which has a nice variety of different features, with a kind owner.
