Hello all , I'd like to introduce you to my new site

Mp3Way - The Way to Free Music Online

Mp3Way is your way to the mp3 world! Use our website to access millions of songs and lyrics for free. We have the most free mp3 on the web.

Many people told me that design is too simple, and isn't so great, what to do? Is it good or i need to do redesign?

Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    I agree with what people already told you. Your design looks too simple. I think that you should try to add a color out of the black and white... Yes because your web design is a little too "black & white" in my opinion.

    Why not finding some inspiration on ThemeForest ? Or you could pick a theme which fit your niche on ThemeForest too.

    Whether the design can affect the visit? If i create better design, will people more use my site? Because now it's just open site and close it.

    Your design is so basic. I don't mean to be blunt but the site is dry. Improve the look and feel of your site

    Not a Bad Idea for a site. Just like others have said, Too black and white. When you think about music is that what you see it has? Black and White? Music is Rich and full of colors! Be more creative with Colors. Be sure to make it readable though. Also your Logo Should Either be resized or re-done. Also If I were to use your site to listen to music. I would probably stop using it just because I have to manually look for another song to listen to after I finish listening to one. You need to add some kind of Playlist feature. That way I could create a playlist then listen to it hands free. Good Luck!

    @SittinPerty , great idea,

    In next update i will add a popular songs / random songs/ top songs/ new songs and other, so people do not need to search for every song.


    Thanks people, i will try to find inspiration on themeforest and create new design soon.

      The design is too simple .
      You should add more life to it . More colors for example - the top of the site , there shouldn`t be empty space on the right .
      You should add menu at the top or at least add some text on the top .
      The logo doesn`t look good , it`s too simple .
      In my opinion you should add more colors , maybe 2 or 3 . The good way to chose good colors is Adobe Kuler

    Try searching other sites related to your niche.. try to pinpoint things you like about it and add them to your site. It looks incomplete to me.. but not bad

    Like everybody say, the website looks a little too simple but its a good start. Add more colors and maybe images, depending on what kind of feel you want you website to have. Good luck!

    Looks clean but for a site like this, I suggest you to use a big concert picture(night) at the back and see the difference. That pretty much sums it up.

    Its not so bad that other mentioned here.
    Its ok and simply.
    I thing you should feel the gaps/white spaces with some nice graphics or text.
    That will make it much better.

    It looks a little plain and corporate to me. Try introducing a bit more color into the site and create a header image for your headline to separate it from the content.

    Try to look for themes that are especially designed for displaying music. You may find them even easier to use, and with a more friendly navigation.

    I will be honest with you and I am not offending in any way, the design is very basic, and boring. You should change it completely.

    I'd say focus on your content right now. Every time I am looking for mp3 files, I really don't care how the site looks like because I don't stay there and download the entire library. I just come for that single file and leave.

    Hi Lakso12,

    Please don't take this the wrong way, but I would clean up the grammar. Some of the text is not proper "english". You may want to use a language conversion tool first before posting your content on the site or just have someone look it over first. It comes across as unprofessional.

    Here's what I found on your site:


    1. "We have the most free mp3 on the web".

    That phrase should be written like this:

    "We offer the most free mp3 downloads on the web".


    2. "We not host any mp3 files."

    That phrase should be written like this:

    "We do not host mp3 files on this site".

    Hope that helps

    John

    For MUSIC it doesn't pop. There should be something featured smack up in the top. I agree with the majority. You need a theme designed especially for music. This one will not attract the traffic you want.

    The design is way too simple for a music/mp3 website. I think it should have more personality and musicality. good luck!
