Default Tanzanite online sales

I have just launched http://www.tanzanite-invest.com

Would you like to review, please? Do you think I should cut out the Checkout page and just go directly to PayPal from the shopping cart?

I very much like the blue hues of the header.

On the Checkout page, can you make the continue shopping button send the viewer back to the category he/she was on before rather than the home page?

Your shopping cart page and FAQ page don't have title tags.

I think you should have a checkout page and it should clearly show shipping costs (especially if you ship for free). It should also have clear links to your shipping policy, privacy policy and return/refund policy.

Your contact page has no physical address, no phone number and nothing to give a potential buyer any good reason to throw several thousand dollars your way. You are going to have to do a lot of confidence building before an old cynic like me would be prepared to buy anything from this site.

Your FAQ page could use an index of questions rather than having to scroll through them all.

Thank you for your valuable suggestions, Dave. I will make the changes today, except for the FAQ page. Instead, I will show more FAQ's on the page so that the visitors can just scroll down the page as a stopgap measure. Since the website is controlled by the CMS, I will have to write a routine to show the
questions in Index format.

Default A second review?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I've spent the last week implementing them, as well as fixing a lot of other things too.

Would members be kind enough to review again and make any further suggestions, please?

And a question: My partner says I should put the email link in a more prominent position than in the footer. Do you agree? The text is actually an image, with a link to mailto:

I am concerned that making the email too prominent will encourage spammers. Any thoughts on this? Or should I go ahead and put the email address in the menu bar at the top of the screen?

Do add a copyright mark to the footer as well.

In addition you should fix some errors:

every "&" symbol needs to be "&" even if its in a hyperlink

every <img> tag needs to have <img alt=""> where alt is a brief description of the image as if it were not there.

Width percentages cannot be 1/2. Just trim the 99.5 to 99 and it should remain exactly the same.

In <script> you need a <script type="">

Otherwise the other errors are tedious to fix. You do have a little error with your tables I think there is an open <tr> or <td> somewhere. In general there are no errors on your page, which is good! Keep up the good work.
