Default Please Review www.realestatebynancy.com

I want to make this site easy to navigate with helpful information when buying or selling real Estate. If you were looking to find a Realtor to list a home or buy a home would you find this site user friendly? Does it have enough valuable information to request information from Nancy. The site is hosted by Superlative, they have made it very user friendly to make changes, Posititve and negitives welcome.

The pale color that is in the background either get rid of it or make it as wide as the rest of the page.

Move your menu below the logo.

You might want to clean up your code. I see a lot of repeat code that does nothing.

WHere to start..

As someone who just finnished buying a house let me point out a few things that did not "click" for me on your site..

1) clicking the featured properties listing image took me to a page full of links.. no featured properties listings. And all the links on this page that are for "Searching" take me to the guest book.

2) whats with the big flash animation on your mai page.

3) clicking on the ranco ---- realestate listing link takes me to my email program not a lisitng of home in the Rancho area of town.

4) shrink down "The Market" ad at the bottom of the page.. it is way to big..

5) clicking the very blurred Realtor MLS logo just opens a new window with a smaller version ofhte the blurry Realtor MLS Logo. Samething for the talking house logo.

6) the client logon should be at the top of the page maybe on the upper right corner of the menu bar.

7) change "Personal Info" menu item to say "About Me". Personal Info sounds unprofessional to me.. BUt I could be wrong.

8) the mortgage calculator could be done on your site with out embedding another site into your.. you may want to see if you have other options.. it make the page look messy.

9) the testomony page heading text need reworded.. or it would be ok if there were some testomonies on the page..

10) I would break out the contact page as a seperate page that lists your name. address and telephone number with a optional link for e-mailing you.. not just a link to e-mail you..

11) on the main page I would move your picture up next and on the left og your name it makes it easier to associate your name to your picture.

Your page has several code issues ( a big one is no doc type)

Alot of your code issues may have been cause by the software used to code it. Namely: Superlative Software - Studio One Ver 4.0.

you have a major code issue on your main page around the keywords meta tag.

Example:
<meta name='keywords' content='&lt;!-- Site search from MSN --&gt;
&lt;form method=&quot;get&quot; action=&quot;http://search.msn.com/results.aspx&quot;&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;cp&quot; value=&quot;&lt;Title&gt;Alta Loma,Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, California Real Estate&lt;/Title&gt;
&lt;META Name=&quot;revisit-after&quot; Content=&quot;30 Days&quot;&gt;
&lt;META Name=&quot;Description&quot; Content=&quot;Rancho Cucamonga homes for sale, see all the Rancho Cucamonga homes for sale by using our simple home search.&quot;&gt;
&lt;META Name=&quot;Keywords&quot; Content=&quot;Alta Loma, Rancho Cucamonga, Rancho Cucamonga homes for sale, Rialto, Fontana, Corona, Norco, Mira Loma, Hesperia, Victorville, Apple Valley, Riverside, San Bernardino, Redlands, Highland, Upland, Claremont, Montclair, Chino, Chino Hills, Ontario, Colton, homes for sale, Real Estate, Coldwell Banker, Coldwell Banker Real Estate, California Real Estate, Buying a Home, Selling a Home, Inland Empire Real Estate&quot;&gt;
&lt;META Name=&quot;Author&quot; Content=&quot;Eugene Borwick&quot;&gt;
&quot; /&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;FORM&quot; value=&quot;FREESS&quot;/&gt;
&lt;table bgcolor=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot;&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://search.msn.com/&quot;&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;http://search.msn.com/s/affillogo.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; ALT=&quot;MSN Search&quot;/&gt; &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;q&quot; size=&quot;30&quot; /&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Search Site&quot; /&gt;
&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;q1&quot; value=&quot;site:REALESTATEBYNANCY.COM&quot; /&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
&lt;!-- Site Search from MSN --&gt;
'>

this will make the search engines unable to index your pages..


there also seems to be a heavy use of a tag <MOD> the validators do not like it.



I'm not trying to pick on your site.. I think it will do great with just a few tweaks.

hope this helps

Looks like the top of the home page was stolen from another site. Or when it came to the text, the designer quit.

What happened? And there are frames lurking in there too.

Anyway to answer your questions:

There are no lists on this site. It is incomplete and confusing. So he answer is no.
and:
Quote:
Does it have enough valuable information to request information from Nancy.
It doesn't have any information on the site (can't you see that?). Just links to other sites and forms to fill in.

I like this under "Testimonials"
Quote:
Due to an unparalleled commitment to customer service, many satisfied clients have submitted letters of thanks and some greatly appreciated reviews. If you would be interested in receiving a variety of letters of recommendation please e-mail that request today so they can be sent over. Thanks again and if you have any other requests for information regarding buying or selling be sure to visit the request information section.
Yeh, right. Why not publish a few of these letters on the site...

Default nice site

i really like the site overall, the layout and design and color schemes work very well. also the layout within a buisness card style is very nice. also you might want to make athe font a little smaller after the nice layout area, it takes away from it a little. the top part of the site is really nice and professional layout, maybe if you could check out my site and give me some sugesitons. i like the site and it should get you good business. also the featured property pic that is on the homepage, very nice looking property, but it doesnt come up when u click it, you get search options, you might want to have this go right to the property, especially being that particular one looks very nice and i would like to see the price of it.

good luck with everything
