    Could I get some feedback on this website I made adsearch.ga

    Basically i'm always buying and selling from classified ad sites and hated having to search the 3 big sites individually, major hassle, so I made this site and have just being using it locally for about 1 year, today I threw some css in and wanted to share it with people.

    Let me know what you think and any improvements I can make please.

    PS. Im not attempting to ever make money off of this just thought it was a handy idea.

    First of all, well done. The website works quite well and has a nice clean UI.

    Some suggestions I would have are:
    1. As soon as the page is loaded activate the cursor in the search bar. That way the user won't have to click the search bar to make it active.
    2. After you perform a search, a lot of space is wasted above the search bar. So what I'm suggesting is to do much like what Google does and move the search bar up closer to the top of the page as soon as the search is performed so the user doesn't have to scroll to see more than 7/8 results.
    3. The images should be a lot bigger (if possible). Its quite difficult to browse results since the images are so small.

    Regards
