Please Tear My Homepage Apart
Share on: 
fb share twitter share gplus share more share

Here are some things I already believe need to happen:

a) The initial copy needs to be catchy
b) I want to make the "November Promotions" section 2 columns w/ the right column being an opt-in form.

Also,

1) Does my menu take up too much room?
2) To people who are complete n00bs in my niche - do you get our value proposition?
3) Nitpick wherever possible. This site has been profitable for me so far, but I know it can do much better

Website is middlepair(dot)com.

Thank you all in advance!

Just my first thoughts:

1. Text in front of cards is not readable
2. Picture quality of cards is bad (pixelated)
3. Why don't you show people who are actually having fun, playing poker? Buy this image, for example: Young people have a good time in casino by FotolEdhar, Royalty free stock photos #62440864 on Fotolia.com
4. The style, the presentation, the icons: it doesn't look like fun! I feel as if I'm viewing a website selling some sort of "boost your efficiency" product or service.


Furthermore, but this is more a matter of personal taste:

5. I think the hero image is way too big
6. The page goes on and on.. it feels too long


Last but not least: don't try to convert me into a lead right at the start of the page! I just got there, I want to explore, get to know more, read a testimonial or two, before even thinking about engaging.

Best of luck and keep us posted!!

Thank you berlin!

1) What's a hero image? EDIT: **Nvm, Googled it. Input appreciated **
2) My site does aim to boost your efficiency! We don't actually run our own casino, we refer players to them and then give them a monthly (in layman's terms) a monthly "rebate". If this is the impression we give off, how can we adjust? NOTE: After just going through my homepage once more I can 100% see how someone could mistake us for our own online poker room.

3) I agree, it is long. Anything you think could be left off? Or rearranged?
