I confused people with my affiliate sites now lets give my real job website a run. I have invested a lot in this site and expect good things from it. Let me know what you think of HerBikini Swimwear

Thank you for your time,

Stu

Hot women = good.
No Privacy Policy = bad.
No Contact Us data (physical, postal, phone, fax, email) = bad.

Your site is not "trustworthy". That is, I am nervous about sending you money.

Actually if you delve a little bit deeper you'll note that this site is connected to ujena.com

These people seem to have a nice niche set up distributing not only on a retail level but also on a wholesale level (nice job)

Hitting the google cache button reveals that this appears to be recently launched (perhaps a purchased domain since the PR is already 3?)

Naturally, Dave, I agree, phone numbers and contact info are critical and judging from ujena.com it appears that they do understand this, so their omission is inexplicable in this instance.

It appears that the purpose of the site is to try to grab a larger net of visitors, perhaps even focusing more on acquiring dominance for the generic terms bikini(s) which they do not currently rank for on google.

Personally I have no problem with this strategy, as a matter of fact, I applaud it.

HOWEVER, that being said I believe that you are making a slight mistake with your approach.

First and foremost, get more text on the website.

Secondly, make the content more than just a duplicate image of what's on ujena.com. An excellent example is the Classic Monroe, you have the same description on both sites (can you make it distinct and unique?)

Third, please note your title tags, they're the same on herbikini.com for all pages. On ujena.com they vary depending on what page you're on.

Finally, you have nice big pictures of beautiful women that will naturally draw attention to them, please feel free to add some alt tags to the pictures.

That's good pics. But I'm still confused about your site's policy

Actually, I did find your phone number, right where I expected it (customer service page). However, I think the phone number should be more prominent to establish trust and confidence in customers. Perhaps as part of the header?

Additionally, like Dave and CW mentioned, you need to supplement the phone number on the customer service page with a physical address. It is nice knowing where in the world I am ordering from, and an "anonymous" toll free number does not give me any information.

And of course, as mentioned above, I would get a privacy policy on the site as soon as possible as well. Probably a summary on the customer service page, with a link to the complete page. You should also probably include the steps you take to secure order information and safeguard your customers' personal information.

Thanks for all the great comments and I will work with Hakersafe and others to set up safety and secure payment notification. As far as the site being new and having a page rank of 3 is because I have sold other bikini products on the site for a couple of years. Now I have dedicated to one vendor which triples my usual affiliate commission since I am a wholesaler. The title and Meta tags will be adjusted this week to match each URL; I waited to see which keywords had the best traffic from my Yahoo and Google campaigns. Traffic is flowing and conversions are being made so it can only get better. Thanks again.

Did you read my post and proposal?

Hello Mark,

Your proposal sounds good; I am going to keep banners off the herbikini.com site but a text link would be fine. I could run it through my style sheet and post it on all pages. I have a discount bridal shop as well www.SpringBoutique.com which I would gladly place one of your banners on the home page up to 700x200px if you are interested.

I liked this under 'Customer Service':

" All of our products can be returned for store credit or exchange exchange except for our swimwear, bikinis, underwear, videos, custom and sale items. "

So what exactly can you return?
