I created this website from scratch and i am ready to take it to the next level. I was wondering if anybody could offer some suggestions to make it more professional or something you think that users would find unique about my site.

Also, any constructive criticism is appreciated. Would you use the service, do you think the site looks clean and professional, is there something you would change if you owned it?

I really appreciate your help and feel free to email me also if you want to at - contact(at)iquorum.net

Here is the link to my site: www(dot)iquorum(dot)net

    Hi,

    It's all a bit messy. But solve these points and it'll be ok I think.
    See attachments.
    1. Top text off page
    2. Page too wide, on my pc/ie7.
    3. Something overlapping in the header and tell us what their problems were.
    4. Text floated off to the right.

    Change "Buy Now" to "Donate Now".

    Hope this helps, good luck.

    Mike

    Hello,

    Make the buttons "light-up" on hover to add a nicer effect.

    When clicking the "Leave a Message" button have the entire page go there instead of having it popup (i.e. target="main" instead of target="blank").

    In the Donate function, you should also change the button with the shopping cart that says "Buy Now" to something like "Click Here to Donate".

    On all pages such as "Become an Expert" and "Customer Feedback", etc. you should have buttons or links that can help you navigate back to the homepage, instead of having the viewer have to click the BACK button in their browser.

    Lastly, you should setup and provide links to a "Disclaimer", "Terms & Conditions Page" and also maybe an "About Me" page as Google will appreciate those.

    Good Luck!

    This site is good but you definitely need to center your content more and yes definitely change the buy button to donate

    Hi,

    the site has a nice overall look. There are some issues that need to be dealt with as mentioned above, and I'd make the page a bit narrower and widen the table/box that the text is supposed to be in.

    But it's a nice start and a good idea, wish I'd thought of it.

    All the best with it.

    Cheers,

    Michael

    A bit messy, use higher quality graphics. The headline should not have the mirror effect applied, use it someplace else. Also drop the page a bit, theres no room in the upper part, it needs some.

    I agree with gimmick.. there needs to be a bit more quality to the graphics. Spacially it needs some readjustment as well.
