k9s 4 EVER

They look good. On the health101 site can you narrow it some.
On my browser I had to scroll right to see all of the page.

How are you planning on monetizing the site? Adsense?

Good luck,

Michael

Yeah the scrolling part is a little annoying, I didn't think that could even happen with wordpress. My advice is get your self a new theme, this will add a little more appeal to your site. You can find some really good themes here: WordPress › Free WordPress Themes. Other than that it is really not that bad, at least you have some decent content to start off with.

Thanks for the feedback I will fix it up so it isn't so huge.

Can you give me feed back on k9s 4 EVER

[wholesale]

I quite like it, looks clean and clear , I like websites with videos on there, makes it look like the person has put more time into making the site. heads up

Health site - Really liked the green, enjoyed the video and was interested enough to scroll down. A bit lopsided with the left side going so far down without anything on the right side.
K9 site - Really enjoyed it, you can't get enough pics or videos of dogs. You either love or hate dogs and for a dog lover showing as many dogs as you can is a benefit!

Hi there,

I just saw your post today and thought I'd respond to your request for feedback.

Healthyology101.com

Bad news first. Overall, the site is confusing. Is the site about anti-aging? If so, you're keeping it a secret. The main video is about anti-aging, there's a graphic of Vivix...and then there's a health coaching link (what for?) and a smoothie recipe link at the top. Free trial for GoldMail on the right. "Follow me on Twitter" link (what for?). You have established no credibility with me as a visitor to your website.

Here's the good news. You can turn it around very easily. The first thing your website is missing is an intention. Ideally, there should be ONE action for me to take (no matter what page I go to or what link I click on...all should lead to the same action).

The question is, what do you want to accomplish? If the answer is "a sale", you probably won't get it. BUT...there are many other actions you could have me take that could lead to a sale. So...make me an offer. NOTICE...I did NOT say "sell me". I said make me an offer. Those two are distinct.

Copy is definitely a missing. There isn't any to speak of. I arrive at your website and I have to make all sorts of assumptions about it because you aren't leading me, telling me a story...nothing. Your "About" page isn't about YOU, it's about a product. Consider telling me about YOU instead.

The truth -- you have *one shot* to *get me in a conversation with you* when I visit your website. You have one shot to**engage me*. If I leave, chances are 90% or more that I won't return. You have to be remarkable from the second I show up. I'll say it again...don't sell me! Engage me.

One last thing...if you're serious about this website, I would remove the 1/2 hour health coaching and the Goldmail ad. Both of them violate the party principle. You're trying to sell me before you start a conversation with me. Doesn't work. Think of your website as a storefront. If I walked into the front door of your storefront off the street, you wouldn't come at me with 10 handbags and say, "Hey! Wanna buy one of these?!?" You would introduce yourself, find out about me and find out what I'm looking for. Ideally, your website should function the same way.

k9s4ever.com

Not much to say on this one. You're selling a series of affiliate products and providing some content. The only suggestion I have is to not make your promotion so blatant. Graphics and hoplinks are fine, but you aren't contributing anything in terms of copy...no endorsements, no reviews, nothing. It would add value if you actually said something about the products you're endorsing. Doesn't have to be you, either. Could be a testimonial from someone else. Something is better than nothing. Similar issue here as with the Healthology101 site...you're leaving me to do all my own thinking and come to my own conclusions. Marketers do the opposite. They lead the conversation.

Hope this helps! All the best to you.

Hi egordon

Thanks for the great feedback. I will fix it up and I hope you come
back and check out the changes.

Thanks again

[VongThongthip]

I like them, they would do fine with me if they were mine

[missm2m]

Hi. I don't know what a K9 is...(? if I didn't ,i.e.) but it's your title. If it's there and I missed it, sorry...

Looks like your site is about 'all dogs' ....but your name k9s 4 ever tells me i should be seeing a lot about k9s.

But, hey, I'm ridiculously working on mine right now too and sooooo!

But that's my immediate impression. Where's the k9 information?

I congraulate you on your forbearance and hard work!! This is definitely harder than I imagined myself

K9 is short for CANINE which according to the dictionary means: adjective
1. of or like a dog; pertaining to or characteristic of dogs: canine loyalty.
2. Anatomy, Zoology. of or pertaining to the four pointed teeth, esp. prominent in dogs, situated one on each side of each jaw, next to the incisor

So that is why it is called K9s 4 Ever because it is all about dogs.

The only thing i would change is make the header on the k9 site about 50% smaller, its way to big.

[terenceyang]

Hi ladywinfall,

www.k9s4ever.com - It will be good if you can make the header smaller. It kind of occupied the entire top fold of my screen. Otherwise it is well done.

www.healthyology.net- simple and well proportioned.


Keep up the effort in improving your sites.

JUICE!
