Judging by your other post, you're after SEO tips with the design. Next time, please be specific.

First of all, for SEO purposes, it doesn't matter what your site looks like. Anyone that tells you otherwise is full of it. On-site SEO is 100% about page loading times, domain, url and the html that is outputted by the server. In your case, it's the html and URLs generated by Joomla.

SEO tips for Joomla.
  1. Install SEF extension. This makes Joomla operate with search engine friendly URLs.
  2. Give each article unique, keyword rich titles.
  3. Give each article unique, keyword rich meta desc, keywords and tags.
  4. Modify Joomla's header generation within your template. You want title, description, keywords metas only and in that order. Use JDocument::setMetaData() to delete/redefine meta tags.
  5. Install a theme that's optimised for search engines or recode your theme. The theme should have:
    • - semantically correct html as possible.
    • - all non-content html should come last.
    • - all content html should be as close to the opening body tag as possible.
    • - all articles should start with a h1 tag with the title.
    • - all opportunities for getting keywords into alt and title attributes exploited
  6. Optimise your theme's performance for loading times. Search engine bots do not like waiting 2 minutes foreach page to load.
  7. Cut back on all table design html or excessive div/span css hooks. Get rid of all inline css and javascript. The goal is to reduce the html:content ratio. CSS includes go in the header, js includes go immediately before the closing body tag.

The list goes on, but there's the basics.

The layout is pretty good. I like the ad placements. But the content isn't updated I suggest you add more articles in the blog.
