    I'd love to hear what people think about my website (http://www.EducatingBabies.com) which sells an ebook I wrote with my father called "Raising Smarter Babies".

    The site is around 8 months old but I haven't done anything with it for the last 6 months or so. I get quite a few views per day but don't convert many sales. I've only sold about 50 books so far.

    Now I'm interested in vamping it up a bit and selling a whole heap of ebooks so BE HONEST about what you like, what should be changed and maybe even what would be the best way to sell some ebooks after putting in so much hard work.

    Cheers!

    Susan

    For some reason the site loads very very slowly for me. The design is good. You should put some free tips on your page and also put the purchase link at the bottom of the page.

    Thanks for your response! Not sure why it's loading slowly?

    Why is it better to have the purchase link at the bottom?

    Because sometimes people just skip the long texts in the middle part and quickly scroll towards the bottom. Also all the sales pages I have seen have the link at the bottom. Putting one in the middle and another at the bottom will be good I think.

    Looks goods to me. Has all the testimonials, promotions and free gift, videos as what you would expect in a sales page.

    Thanks to everyone for your really positive responses.

    I don't think I've ever really appreciated what a good domain I have. About a year ago I wrote down a list of possible names and it was available....but haven't really thought about it too much since.

    I'm going to add another buy now button etc to the very bottom of the page...thank for that good suggestion.

    Did the website load slowly for anyone else?

    Cheers - Susan

    I had it a lighter blue colour at the beginning and changed it to a darker blue. Hmmm....maybe that was the wrong choice...

    What exactly don't you like about the dark blue? Hard on the eyes? Unprofessional?

    Sorry for all the questions -- just trying to understand.

    Still can't figure out why or if it's loading slowly. How quickly is the site loading for other people?
