I would like to get my website reviewed!

Hey Heretic,

I'll be blunt and to the point:


1.) Your theme is terrible - it's like a sickly beige. Get rid - swap it out for something more elegant and professional.

2.) The 'click here' links are rubbish as well - there's too many! Not just that, they're all right next to eachother, line after line.
Instead of saying "Click here for..." change the link to "Free books!", "Learn more about E-Readers", etc. Make the descriptions the links!

3.) Personally, your links on the right hand side - I'd make them drop down menus. Why? Because there are so many links, it's crazy. Instead, I'd turn all the text that's in the white boxes into drop down menus, so it's not so distracting to the eye.

4.) Your header looks cheap. Design or hire someone to design a new one. Preferably get a logo for your site. Little things make the big difference.


That should be enough to get you started!



Best of luck,



Ben.

I think it's a fantastic idea. I think you should get lots of traffic. Like the man above said the brown color probably isn't the best for this type of site. You have to take into consideration who is your target market. Are they more men than women? What colors would they prefer. You can also do a Google search about the psychological effect of the different colors.

Here's a few articles on the subject you may find helpful:

Good luck in your business. I think you'll do fine since English is not your first language.

Hey Eros, some critical observations of the site...

As some have said, the theme color scheme is very bland. The texture of the background image is also affecting readability in some areas of the page as well. Is this a WordPress theme you designed or had someone design for you? Was it generated through a program like Artisteer?

The header is very generic. I did an image search for "ebook" and the header image you are using pops up within the first several rows. There's no drama to the image. There's nothing about the header at all that draws people into your site. And the fading reflection effect on your header title is dated and amateur. You should try to come up with a header design that adds more interest and drama to the site.

Your menu bar is poorly designed...White text on a beige background is not a good idea, and the scale of your font is too tiny versus the block of the menu bar itself.

Using Impact as a font for your headlines is also a bad choice in my opinion. An Impact style headline font is going to clash with most acceptable body text fonts, and it's going to disrupt the reader as they scan your page.

All of your sidebar menus present themselves as a "laundry list" that doesn't really lend any importance to the information they may be linking to. In my opinion, I'd restructure the entire menu system and implement a well organized drop down header menu approach.

Your copy kind of reads like a "term paper" on eBooks. There are others here who could provide useful suggestions on that, but it would benefit from a rewrite that adds interest and builds suspense to your content.

Good luck with the site, I believe it will be very helpful to people, but I think you are going to need to change the overall look and approach of the site to be of any use to your visitors.

I decided to add a review website to one of my forums.

If your lookin for help, hit me up. Here are my evaluations

I actually like the design and layout. I like the concept too. I agree that the header is pretty generic. That's an easy fix.

Get a good content or even copywriter to spruce up the text. You've got the makings of a really good thing here. Good luck.

Wow, thank you all for the suggestions!
It's really unbelievable that I got this many feedback.
So I'm starting by redesigning and tweaking my landing page and the content of other pages.
Tomorrow morning I'll work on this.
Again, thanks a lot!

you have a good web, if you want paid review then simply pm me.

SIMPLIFY and FOCUS.

What I do like:

The headline is big, so my eyes know right where to go to tell me the website is EXACTLY what I'm looking for in one succinct, concise sentence.

Also, the focus of the content is good; it maintains focus on what the reader is looking for, and their possible pain points and desires, then follows up with testimonials on how easy and simple the site is (which tells me the method is uncomplicated, followed by exactly what benefits to expect.

What I don't like:

When I land on this page, my brain is distracted by the color, I don't know what Jules Verne's picture represents (why is it there in the first place... it seems to just be something random that's there for the sake of being there that distracts people [unless it has a meaning the average reader in your niche can understand])

On the yellow box, there's a lot there to sift through to find what I'm looking for, maybe create HTML drop-down menus with titles for sections like
"About eBooks"
"eBook readers"
"eBook websites"
"Selling eBooks"
"Writing eBooks"
"eBook readers & converters"

That way the reader can quickly and easily find what they're looking for, and won't leave because they don't want to look through a huge list.

Overall it's a solid site. Good job
