We have a pretty active site with a lot of regular users. We recently did a overhaul on our main page that seemed to help cut down on the number of questions we get from new users.

Just wanting to see if we are missing anything else obvious that might prevent customers finding the information they are needing:

Hi

Congrats. Site is marvellous in my opinion. Really inviting - fast loading - easy to navigate and very pleasing to the eye. Can't see how anyone is going to find fault with it. Well done. My own site has affiliation links to many companies and perhaps I can put your site on as well.

Regards

Hi,

Site looks really good - nice professional looking graphics which is what you really need considering your market.

However, check the spelling.

AMATUERS? Should be Amateurs unless there is an american spelling I am missing.

Above all - a nice crisp, clean main page.

Cheers

Mike

Very neat design. Good use of graphics and the page loads very fast considering the graphics etcetc. I invite you to submit a free review of your website to my web directory http://www.anotherwebdirectory.com - its free! :-)

Thanks Kutchka. I thought that word did not look right.

Site does look professional but I dont find the colours inviting. The mass usage of grey gives more of a negative feel than positive. On your tips page the left column with the navigation links is overlapping some of the other text when viewed in Firefox.

Impressive.. but, the grey is not good at all to me. Actually you really have too many colors.

Munky nailed it.. get rid of the dark grey and the menus should not be grey either.

Careful not to remove pages that have ranks.. as it can cause drops in next update by big G. I find it better to just edit them than to remove inner pages.

Just something to keep in mind.

I could be wrong but, the bots arn't - right?

Hi Theoart,

Nice site overall, but the bottom part of the homepage threw my eyes all over the page without really picking anything out; as Munky said, the contrast and colour scheme's not doing you any favours there.

My biggest (constructive) criticism however is the style of the models and the photos in general - they remind me of the posters in my local barber shop which have probably seen several generational changes. Try to get some more modern pictures that don't look so dated. Maybe Milan's just getting to me... :)

I hope it helps,
Alex

I am not a big fan of having a site menu at the top of the page. I like to see the site logo in that area. Why not put it below your site logo?
