    Hi Everybody!

    Oh... No... ! another directory...: Sefood-Portal B2B Directory
    Yes.. and.. No...!

    I developped the script from draft by myself and it took approx 1 & half year (but I really started from nothing, even not simple basis in HTML).

    This version is the "beta" version and the full website will be launched after google indexed it.

    For the moment, you can't see contact information such as contact names/titles, phone and fax (and there is no possibility to contact our users in the beta version.

    Full version will be launched next month.

    For the moment, 200 pages indexed in google (out of more than 1700)

    Please provide me feedback on:

    - English (I'm french so there should be some mistakes...!)
    - Features and intuitivity of the website.
    - Design... (??) => I'm bad at designing....!
    - SEO... I reworked this stuff to optimize Google indexind but there maybe some other stuff to make the bride more beautifull ;-)

    Hope you'll find it cool :) Thanks per advance for your help!!

    Nice domain name, I like it. And also I like your title design, looks good. Just add a deep sea image as background for your site, looks much better..

    Thanks! I'll have a look on the background, there should be a way to put something like deep sea :)

    OK for the favicon... I'll see how to do that. For the sitemap, I have one (but only for Google...) Do you think I need to put one? (there is more than 1800 pages!)

    I like your design. Can I browse the directory instead of searching. Good luck to your new site.

    Sure you can! Click on directory (left menu) and then you will have the possibility to browse the database by products or by company names (top menu).

    What do you mean by ad placements...? which ad? The one on the top (?). You're probably right, I had only a few clicks on this ad in 2 weeks... What do you suggest?

    (If fact, when everything will be ready, there will be a login form just above this ad...)

    Thanks for your feedback! ;-)

    Your header is taking up almost half the page! Real estate is expensive, use wisely

    Looks as you say professional. But I think the header banner is to big. I first didn't see the seafood-logo because of the banner. Good luck with the site!
