hey,

i have a store :Garden Furniture King[dot]co.uk

i am getting good traffic through GOOGLE CPC and one of the worrior is doing seo on it as well. Any type of suggestion would be appreciated.

Also i have some problems on the site, if you can help me, it would be awesome.

1- I need to remove the follow us on twitter/compare products and newsletter option from the side bar.

2-when some one search some thing from the top search bar it never gives the right result, it actually gives random results or some times no results at all. How can I fix that.

3- as you can see there are search option on the right panel on this link :

gardenfurnitureking[dot]co.uk/tables-chairs.html

but they are not there on this link

gardenfurnitureking[dot]co.uk/day-beds.html

I need to remove the search options, basically i am just looking for the cart and then underneath that i have added my own contact us and facebook thing but the other things are not required and I need to remove them.

4- my site get about 6000 unique visitors a month and I sale 3-5 items a month, how can I increase my conversion ratio.

p.s: This is my first site, I am not good with coding, i would really appreciate if you explain in detail what needs to be done.

thanks in advance.

    I really like the site it has a nice clean look. I would say try and show potential customers what your site is about in terms of branding. The logo is fairly generic and no signs of what the site is about in logo, header etc...

    Good luck with the site.

    Thanks.

    Looking simple , neat and clean and pretty much attractive as well.
    I like your site topics but don't like site layout.
    I think you should take a look to layout.

    Hi there!

    I'm not an IM expert, but from a traditional marketing point of view, I would say you need better differentiation from your competitors in order to improve sales conversion rates.

    If you could get a professional copywriter (or at least read some great copywriting blogs and then do the writing yourself) to rewrite the "Why Buy from Us" page and then figure out how to more prominently showcase your differentiating factors on your website, that might help.

      Thank you for your insight, and rest of the people thank you for taking out the time and writing a feed back.

      I understand that the layout is not upto the mark, i need social advertisement in the footer and on the right side i need to put some promotions. I am working on it.

      thanks again.

    I like the layout and the feel of professionalism and of course the neatness of your site, However it does feel a little too generic and perhaps you could use a better header to make your site look not only pleasing to the eyes but also attractive.

    I suppose you didn't coded that site...
    Regarding your site code - It's not recommended to post your code publicly, but I'm not sure anybody can help you if we don't see your page code. I suppose it's php based, and for example, on first problem with twitter, I see you have to remove div with class "box base-mini mini-twitter" (or something, I just glanced at source), but it's maybe dynamically created div, so it's maybe the best option to hire someone trusted to take a look at your site code.
    Also with your search, it's probably rewrite driven, so that's similar story, and so on...
    Design is good.
    Conversion ratio - dunno, wait for guru in that field.

    Nice site: clean, succinct, elegant. Good choice of colors as well. To get more people to the site, I suggest you write articles as they pertain to the products you're selling. People are interested in stories less so garden furniture. However, once they're on the site ...

      thanks everyone,

      I kind of misled you, I installed magento (e-commerce platform) and then applied the theme added images and products, added extensions and some images.

      I am not a developer or a coder.

      but any way i am really happy by the positive response and I am happy with the site as well, just really worried about the conversion ratio.

      but yeah *finger crossed*
