please review my new site

gigigib · #1 (**permalink**) 07-04-2008, 09:33 AM

I've asked for reviews a few times here before and got some good ideas and suggestions. I left my old host (after 4 years) and have a new site - same domain name- and while I like it pretty much, I'd like some feedback on:
navigation easy?
is it overall clean and not too busy looking?
does the banner look OK?

thanks for any help.
Gigi

1. You need to have a title tag on your homepage.

2. You should learn how to use CSS for such attributes as font sizes and colors.

3. All your images that are links have a blue border around them. Set border="0" in the img tag.

4. This

Code:

</font></p><p><br></p><p><font size="2"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">Fragrance Oil, Potpourri &amp; Wreaths from Forget Me Not Scented Gifts</span><br></font> </p>

in the head makes no sense to me.

Thanks Dave. I deleted #4, it made no sense to me either. I don't know what CSS is.

To be totaly honest with you, it doesnt look at all professional. You really need to inspire your visitors with confidence that you are a reliable genuine company, otherwise how will they be sure that they will ever recieve anything after sending their hard earned money in to the eather...

If your focus here is to teach yourself website design, then that is one thing, and what you are doing is fine. But if your aim is to actually earn money from the website, you would be better off using a template. A templated layout will look far more professional than your own if you are still learning design, and you should be more likely to generate sales.
