Please review a Free eBooks website

    As the topic says this website has free eBooks for download, most of them have as well resell rights.

    I would really appreciate if you could review it honestly. Feel free to say anything you have on your minds.

    P.S
    Soon, I am planning to add an option for visitors to add other eBooks including their own.

    Thank you in advance for the review.

    I've seen a lot of "junks" ebooks - being offered at DP in return for rep. Hope yours is truly free. Thank anyway

    The design it's ok... It's simple but much of the times that is the best way to go.

    Good navigation to.

    Give it other categories of ebooks, put the categories listing in a higher place and reduce the gap between the blue bar and the rest of the site

    Congrats

    PS: Good domain to!

    Nice simple layout and products. I think the site looks a little generic - maybe its working hiring a designer to make some logos or custom graphics. Also centred text is not my favoutite.:)

    Your site banned me... I went to download the card tricks book and it said I was flooding the system and being warned (I only clicked once). I hit the back link on the page.. it warned me.. hit it again.. warned me.. hit it again... banned.

    Nice site. LOL

    To be honest. Your site is pretty boring visually. I don't think there is much there that would keep my attention. The pictures of the books are pixelated and fuzzy. I suspect that the images look this way because the actual images are larger, and they are being scaled down in the HTML. It is a good rule of thumb to never scale down or up images with HTML. It is best to have the image be the correct size for the page.

    Your logo is a bit boring as well. I would emphasize your round thing with the red swoosh, and maybe make that a bit bigger. I would ditch the stamp looking thing next to it, or make it so users easily know what it is.

    Now just to let you know that I am not being too critical, your site is very easy to navigate, and find what you are looking for. I didn't download anything, but I knew exactly how to download anything at a glance. Which is more than I can say about a lot of sites. User functionality is VERY important.

    too much white space on the header and between the "The #1 Source of Free eBooks" and the blue bar. need some graphic for banner would make the site stand out a little. easy navigate, so that is a good thing.
