    I didnt liked the color scheme at all.The designer should be more creative and use some good looking colors. I think designer didnt worked more on Typography and color scheme.Layout is just ok.

      I might be wrong but I don't think that this is the final version. It's just the wireframe so there are no graphics or color scheme.

    This area can probably be unified

    Think about combining the news and blog posts. Usually only one outlet is needed for companies.

    Unify the footer

    Perhaps it's just visual representation of the footer, but I would unite all of these three boxes into one with a different background. All of this is utility functionality and eliminating "boxing" will make the design look cleaner.

    Good placement of search box

    The search box is right where users expect it. On the other hand, "Search:" label is really not needed here.

    1 liner menu

    I would go with a 1 line menu. I don't know if it's possible but it would make the menu more easy to scan and more room on the page.

    Great headline

    Great bold headline that's screaming "read me" :)

  • 6

    Action areas / buttons

    Try to make the most important stand out. Else, there are to many action buttons next to each other.

  • 7

    Not related

    These 2 do not releate with eachother ... separate it, or move it elsewhere.

  • 8

    Not noticeable

    There links are barely noticeable. Maybe place a similar link at the very bottom of the article box, this is where users expect it.

  • 9

    Rename it

    Try "read more", its an descriptive action. Will generate more clicks.

    Why no title here?

    It seems inconsistent with the boxes on the right and left. Unless you want to make it less noticeable / important.

    Combine

    As Aurimas already said: Try to combine these. It would make them more interesting to read (more content).

  • 12

    Thumbnails

    Add more thumbnails to the page or else it will look dull lilke a newspaper column.

  • 13

    Move it to the top

    Bump this up ... this is how the user interacts with your site. It's important.

  • 14

    Language

    Language selection here? Why?

  • 15

    Integrate

    Integrate these into a separate area. I don't have any brilliant ideas, but it's a mess right now. Maybe adding some of them to the main menu (drop down)?
