My First Site

RobertBand · 11-02-2009, 10:34 PM

I just reworked a site for a friend of mine. I know its not the best ever but its a vast improvement over the previous version he made. I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips. I'm using godaddy's website tonight and its kinda hard to navigate and get what I want. Any tips or feedback would be greatly appriciated. TheOnePlacetoShopOnline.com

One thing you might do is make the text on your button a little larger to make it easier to read.

Oh man. Its suck you are using godaddy free host space. I think better you use Free hosting than godaddy. You may install Joomla or blog Wordpress.

You will get 1500MB hosting space and 100GB Data Transfer. .php script so any Open source you may install. have a look at my signature for more details.

Just a small tip, you may want to open up the links in a different window - "_blank"- on the link so that customers can get back to you first landing page

First impression: it simple, to-the-point, and easy to navigate.

Some problems:

The buttons need some improvement. Maybe you can change it by images, so it will see more lively and attractive.
text header need more attention (too little and not attractive, since the name is too long and 'TheOnePlacetoShopOnline.com', are you kidding me using that as the header for the blog? I rather use 'One-Stop OnlineShop' or something like that than what you using.
change the color of your text header too.

But, overall, I like your site. Keep it improving.

Hi Robert

Personally I would get away from Free Hosting cos sometimes they tend to put their ads on your site, and you obviously want to come across as a professional, so having ads is kinda not the way to go

From my experience, FREE hosting = Lots of Downtime, thats my viewpoint on the matter

Again, its your choice, but a good start, good luck in whatever you decide to do
