Hello guys! I just designed a mobile reviews and ratings site. In this site i also launched a mobile shop in which you can list your phones for free. More, you can read cool sms's and send them to your friends. http://fonebuzz.net Need your reviews for it, also if you find any error, please let me know coz this is beta version. Thanks
Design and layout is quite good. Your website has good content and features. Not too into the flash header. Would prefer a more web2.0 title/header. Especially with a good domain like fonebuzz..
The Flash header needs to go. When designing a site you need to think hard about animation and where to use it. Movement on a site distracts the user from what you are selling! It is common for people to have movement in Banner Ads as they are trying to attact the user to them. But in the case of a header it does not work. Otherwise a nice site, great colour scheme.
thanks for comments, i really appreciate your suggesstions. please tell me that should i re-animate the header or only logo section or should i remove animation from top? Actually, my site design is so simple that is why i created an animation on top.. I am thinking on making a new animation.. also, did you find any type of error in it? If so, then please tell me..
thanks beefandy! Well, guys! I'm on dial-up, im facing a little problem with my site, which is whenever i click ratings, i am again able to click it with the same ip.. you click some ratings on my site and tell me if you can re-click that option? to check it visit: http://fonebuzz.net/reviews/nokia/6301.php thanks
Ratings work fine, will not allow me to rate same item twice. Animation Reccomendation: Logo: Keep the animation, but dont loop it. Let it animate once, that is enough time to catch the users attantion and see it. It can then do one loop of animation each time the page is refreshed. Banner: Stop the animation in the middle area (ie spinning discs in the back ground.) Phone: The aminimation on the phone is nice a subtle, again animation intices people to click, so make the phone clickable to somewhere in the site. This is just a personal opinion
I like how your content area is clean and organized, the header on the other hand is not.. I'm not a fan of the animations. I'd get the header re-designed to something more simpler and clean
The site looks great except that the page area is not clearly defined. Perhaps an off-white contrast to the background might suffice.
thanks for ur nice suggestions. But, i need some help. I stopped looping. About mobile phone i didn't link coz i already created a button of reviews. About discs. If i remove them , my site looks more simpler any other suggestion to make it more user friendly?? ----- to other guys: THanks for appreciating ! hope to see you again on my site.
