Please criticise myfirst dropshipping site

Hey Mihail, just checked out your drop-shipping site. Great job on your first site. It looks great. Love the plain and simple look. I know alot of persons starting out love to over-complicate and make things look fancy... Great to see you chose the simple approach. In my opinion, besides the slow loading time of the site, not sure if it was my internet connection or what, but besides that I would only say i think you have too many categories/tabs at the top. I would put some of them categories under a sub menu...

Besides that, it looks great. Great job on your first site!

Hey man,

interesting stuff, at least something with a topic. With all these general "fashion", "bracelets", "gaming" stores popping up every day at the moment, I'm always happy to see something a little more specific and original, even if its just something simple as yours.

The store itself is cool as well, maybe you can add some trust by hosting a (serious) sign, adding Amazon Payments or stuff like that. Also a testimonial could help in your case.

Keep up the work, best of luck!

I like it. The size of the pictures is great, and I like that they enlarge with a mouse-over without having to click anything in addition. (Sounds lazy, I know, but it wastes time.)

I agree with reducing the amount of links on top menu like someone suggested. You don't need to, but you might be better served with some dropdown menues.

I do find the site slow to load. Not initially, but going from page to page. That's something that needs to be fixed. I think WP has a plugin for that? Or is this Shopify?

Anyway, good work.

Yes, it is definitely quite slow but it's a nice looking site. One thing I would recommend is getting words on the main pages of the site that you want to rank for. Without any words, there is no way to ever climb the search rankings. They can't just be bullet points like you have on the product pages, either. You need to bring something unique to your pages to get them to rank.

The website looks good, the scrolling down the page is way too fast so you'll might lose a few costumers there, check for a way to disable the scrolling to get a more natural feel for the site.

Best of luck!

really nice design, which plugin is this? is it woocommerce? How are you managing dropshipping? How much revenue site is generating?

Hey there Mihail, nice site! Curious are you dropping shipping from Aliexpress?

It you are drop shipping from Ali, I take it you do not have resell rights for those brands? You could get yourself into a lot trouble for that.

I like the simple design and I notice the product displayed on homepage is shuffled instead of latest product. That's brilliant

Hi Mihail,
It indeed is a nice website. but noticed that the site is not complete. say for example when I hovered over shop by category, the drop down only had star trek on it. When clicked says no products. Is this something you are working on? And also the site is slow.

On a separate note, would love to see if you or any others can answer some questions for me please:

- Do you have to pay for a theme on Woocommerce? What about the one you have?

- Aliexpress have relatively long shipping times - does this have an impact? How do we overcome this situation?

- When you order the item for your customer, do you specifically tell the Aliexpress drop shipper it is for drop shipping, because they may advertise their brand with the product?

- Do you have a go to drop shipper or a collection of them? because the price can vary within them too?

- And finally, does it work better in say .com site compared to a country specific? I am thinking of doing drop shipping in Australia, but instead of doing all of it as drop shipping, I am planning to stock some items so I can locally ship it. Is that a reasonable idea?

Thanks in advance.
