Please Critique My Product Review Site

redstanford · 12-05-2011, 06:50 PM

hello guys,

i have a product review site

www bestwinecoolersreview com

the site is about 8 months in age and in the month of November brought in a little over $430 in commissions for Amazon. Already this month, it's at $66. the traffic i have coming to the site currently is decent but no where near maxed out because for some of the big-time keywords i'm going for, i'm not yet on page 1. but the promise certainly is there.

i am looking for some honest critiques of my site. the layout, the header (i know some of you guys don't care that), the design, the copy if you have extra time to read etc.

i just want an honest take on my site so i can make it as good as possible

thanks guys!

OK so your page rank is one. 1.215 million is your alexa score. That is a good start for you. The web site you created looks max pro.

However, please add prices to your front page. Also a big red [BUY] button people can click on. Otherwise get ready for poor conversion. Yeah, we might say very poor. People hate to hunt for prices.

Also, put some special offers on your front page. These should be designed to get people to buy for the xmas season. For example, get ready for when it gets warm next year. Then add in a section for summer saving. However, right now the emphasis should be on getting people to BUY gifts for the holiday season.

LOVE the site....what theme is that? I agree, you need a BUY here button. There is no "call to action" whatsoever. Very informative, very crisp, good info. Just no call to action.

Your header looks a little angelfire-ish ... and I wouldn't put the worst ranked item 2nd on the page.

Agree with seobro - put a price range, and allow to sort by price.

"Real Customer Feedback" as the first 3 words in your title doesn't seem very optimized (unless it's working for you).

Your meta description and keywords are blank.

The alt tag on your H1 image is blank.

Your sidebar headings are H2 ... should make those H3.

just out of random, can you give me an idea of what i may change my title to so that it's both optimized and attractive to searchers in the serps?

the header i'm planning on changing
