    It looks a bit generic to me (sorry!). Maybe a fancier logo?

    This site looks very appealing visually. The colors and layout are great and add to the site.

    Nice work.

    Hey i think it looks good myself But how did you make those boxes on the home page? The reason i ask is because i have the same theme for a few of my sites and i would like to know how to do it.

    I think that it looks nice.

    The product images could be a little bigger. Also, the "Under $50.00" and "Under $100.00" are tough to read. You could also remove the .00 from each, making it $50 and $100.

    After those two little fixes, I would recommend getting a banner designed.

      hmm you mean a header. I can make a header. I have xheader...but I don't think this them lets me put a header on it...at least not very easily because the top part is not a graphic or something..

    Blue is inappropriate for a Heaters page, blue is for icy cold product pages. I suggest Red Hot! You got your theme all wrong.

    It's by making mistakes you will learn. Everyone here can say your page is nice and I agree too, but do you want "nice" or to "convert"?

    well, ok, I was expecting someone telling me, his pages are cold to show how cold it can get without a heater or something along those lines which we could of started a debate, but maybe another time...

    Take care,

    When u click on the photos/images they open up a new window/tab as just the images. I think these should link to something... either the full review or the product page on amazon. Remember, those "clicks" are very valuable to making money.

    It looks pretty good, it'd look even better with a decent header.

    I agree, the layout is fine, it is the colors that bother me. Anyway, we won't start debating about colors vs conversion since this thread itself has already gone Cold...LOL

      Your site looks great! Your visitors will be willing to browse and explore it. I believe you can add more to its content because of the nature of your site. I suggest the color red for your graphic image "under $50.00" to emphasize the uniqueness of your site and the affordability of its products. Well done!

      It's a definite improvement over the old one - the images are sized better and the text is better organized. I agree about linking the images but I do think it is improved.

      That's how you learn - one step or one thing at a time.

    Looks good... It just that moving 'feature heater' thingy is somehow rather disturbing. If I were you, I will change it into normal headline text.

    Edit: Take a second look and your site is really looks good. Just don't forget to do something with that blue moving feature heater.

    Hi,
    I think the site is good and very easy to look at. I don't like the flaming image though as whatever else I am looking at on the page this is always a distraction.

    The website's not too bad. Not too keen on how the black header goes into the blue straight away. Would be nice to have a white line in between the black and the blue (if done properly, so it's a nice transition) and the blue should fade out to the lighter color sooner (but slower), so when the page is loaded it's not the black header then the same colored blue background. Also what's with the very tacky gif image under the text "If you are looking for electric heaters for your home, rest assured you’ve come to the right place. Here, you’ll discover low priced electric heaters for all areas of your house." when I see that kind of thing on a website, I instantly go off it lol. Plenty of other improvements that can be made but that's just my two cents.

    Looks great ... except the flame image. Lose it. Animations are sooo 80s.

      I agree with Suzanne on this.

      The site looks good but the first thing my eyes looked at was the flaming image, I'm not to keen on that myself either.

      Other than that I think it looks like a good effort.

      Your website is good.I liked the color combination and layout but I also liked one more thing. Your website is user friendly. Its easy to navigate and to get information. That is good for users. hope you are doing well with it.

    Try to find some uniformity in the Fonts, no need for the Flame Image, can use a font instead. I like the blue and general layout but found a little bland overall.

    Your site just seems busy. There is a ton of information to read on that main page. This may not be a bad thing though, as my personal tastes probably differ from the rest of the world.

    I would try to simplify things a bit. I also believe in only one buy now button, as more than one looks tacky to me. All the best with your site!
