My first review request

kronklee · 05-13-2009, 08:18 AM

hi guys,

I am a little nervous about my first request here on warrior forum.

I would like the following site reviewed, I am currently working on it at the moment, so if some of the links do not go anywhere I apologize, just looking for a fresh set of eyes to check it out and let me know what you think?

I would really appreciate any suggestions and comments.

Professional Life Coach - Fruition Life Coaching

Yep its a .com.au cause I am based in Australia.

Thanks in advance!

I think you have done a fabulous job....

kronklee · 05-13-2009, 08:34 AM

Thanks Kim, that is very nice of you!

Very nice clean design, I like the header design, very unique

Ant West · 05-13-2009, 03:41 PM

It really looks good adam!

Kezz · 05-13-2009, 08:02 PM

Yeah very nice. I'm an Aussie myself

I particularly like the shape you've created for the header. There's really nothing obvious to critique, nice one.

My only thoughts would be that perhaps some extra color in your content, and a little less in your background, might get people focusing where you want them to - ie your sales copy. I tend to think of web design as being like painting. Your background is your canvas and your copy is your painting, your foreground. The foreground should have the vibrant colors, and the background should fade off a little. Otherwise the eye tends to be drawn off the main area.

I would think of perhaps just de-saturating the peach color you have in your background, and adding some bright colors to your copy in the form of some pictures. You could even create some text graphics for some of your key points if you wanted.

Oh, and the other thing I would do is put some kind of link or button right under where you say "I am! Let’s get started!", so that the person can do just that, get started right away.

Really nice job though, a very attractive site. Nice!

it's a nice design, i like it...

SEOsly · 05-14-2009, 07:50 AM

Excellent job.

The header shape flows well with the ribbon the woman is waving and seems to really draw my eye towards the opt in form.

I'd imagine that's exactly what you're going for.

Good Work!

Your site is very nice.

However, if you done something more it should improve overall conversion rate.

- Use more images along with your content. Just have it on header is not enough in my opinion.

- All texts under content area look too plain. Why don't you just make font on some section bigger and use a different colors?

The example is "Are you ready to get excited about it?". It doesn't give me any of exciting in my opinion. Grab some reader attention.

- At Let's get started at bottom, why don't you just make it a link to sign up page or contact page? You loose a great opportunity in convert peoples.

Nice Design!

Use images more.
Make First Name, Last Name, and Email capital, you have the first letter lowercase.

eric.watson · 05-14-2009, 01:37 PM

I think it looks great. I do agree with Kezz regarding the background colour, my focus is drawn to the overall background and not the content.

Well done.

kronklee · 05-14-2009, 06:27 PM

Hey all,

Some really great feedback, thanks!!

I have made a list of all the different things you have all suggested, I will get to work implementing them over the weekend.

Thanks again!

Adam,

I agree on the header and colors. Very Well Done!

Just a couple quick observations.

When navigating around the site I noticed that some pages end with no ability to keep clicking. ie. the intensive coaching program page. I think user experience would increase if you made it easy to navigate.

Using this page as an example again I noticed there is no call to action. The only thing that is being "asked" to do is sign up for newsletter. Maybe you aren't trying to get them to buy anything, I just assumed the the coaching programs were designed to get people to join.

Finally, some personalization of Danielle would be good to add. ex} pics, success stories, etc.

Nice job

UnleashReality · 05-15-2009, 07:54 AM

really like the design - flows well and doesn't look like a normal usual website.

i think the green is a little too brown, make it more like the grass because the contrast makes you want to look away.

solid stuff though - well done.
