Am I Useless?

[amits97]

Why are nobody interested in my site? Even after I bought adverts at a PTC, Optimized for google, tried out Digg, Stumbleupon and many more, I find nobody even cares to navigate through my site. Is it lack of good design or is it lack of good sentences/grammar or is it lack of publicity?

I tried to leave customers to fix their own prices for the Photoshop products they ordered. Was that a bad idea?

I tried giving out a free ebook so that people will at least download it and remember my site. But I never captured their name or e-mail id before they downloaded. Was that a really bad idea?

I need suggestions/tips to help me increase my sales.

I feel totally useless.

You must capture peoples email so you can start to build a list. Have you tried to set up a auto responder series? This way some one fills in a box on your webpage then their email is automatically sent to your auto- responder.
I use aweber, they supply html so you can have a pop up appear on your site. This is how i build my list of contacts.

OK as an avid photoshop user..I found your page very boring.

What you might want to do is add way more content...like some before and after shots of some photoshop work that you've specifically done and include them in the post. Make your web page a more content driven site with less icons to distract.

Include a photo of you so people can have the sense that you're a real person.

But make the page more user friendly like "why do they want photoshop" and why should they get it from your site.

Also..yeah always put an opt in box to collect names and emails for future follow up.

You might want to also send them mini video tutorials on how to clone..or make paths...or cut out certain backgrounds etc...

Thanks you. I will do a complete rework

I would definitely put some Photoshopy images on that page. This is where you make your first impression on your prospects. It needs to have a strong impact. Don't just tell them what you do-- show them--quick.

I found your website a lil dry myself. I don't see subscriber form to capture people address. Give away some short tutorials or something.

You could also try give away some of your services in order to get a few testimonials to put on your page to sell your sevices. Say like offer a WSO and say the next 5 warriors get a free header, banner or whatever you choose to give away. I think a pricing structure would benefit you too instead of saying choose your price.

Thanks for your view. I will certainly rework on it.

Lot of good suggestions from warriors. I love it here. I will certainly rework keeping all these things in mind.
