    Hi everyone,

    www.simplysourdough.com

    I am a long time independent web developer from San Francisco.  This is my new ecommerse website. We sell and ship bread online wholesale. I am looking for any feedback you can give me. Perhaps about the UI, the design, the checkout process, etc.

    I am using Joomla and Virtumart.


    As a thanks, feel free to use the coupon code "sonoma" for a huge discount on orders. Thanks.

    I like the look and feel, it was light and friendly with nice warm colors, it really has a brick oven bakery feel which I love, I can almost smell the bread. I do feel you are lacking on customer interaction/social proof, especially with a highly consumable product such as yours, having customer reviews and testimonials would be key. I would also suggest moving your phone number to the header, displaying the phone number suggests a brick and mortar establishment which builds consumer confidence.

    You should also setup a www redirect so you don't end up splitting your page rankings, check http://blogbuildingu.com/articles/www-redirect-right-way if you need assistance setting this up.

    If you find that you need assistance tying into Facebook for comments and sharing or if you would like to implement another branch of your store into your Facebook fan page please let me know. Again nice websites, I hope it works out for you.

    I was spending a little more time on your website and I noticed that on https://simplysourdough.com/wineandcheese the products were not being added to cart and was throwing an alert of "This is a non-secure form". I was running safari Version 5.0.5 (6533.21.1) if you have trouble duplicating my result.

    Design looks nice. Everything is easy to get to without a problem...As someone mentioned SEO needs a bit of work. Get your keyword research done and get em included in your title tags and on page copy.

    The design is simple, and the webpage opening is fast. But"This page can't be seen by the current user. Please check page privacy and visibility settings." is displayed when I visit your site, why?
