Hi everyone, I would appreciate any input on FreeBestDeals.com. I want to open a contest for deal submissions starting next week. I currently have a dev working on creating a submission form for deals, in preparation for the launch. Thanks!
It might be my browser, but the site looks a bit all over the place! The navigation bar seems to be missing a background image?
There is too much space between the nav bar and the logo, I think the site would look better if you got a different theme.
Thanks for all the feedback. I think I followed them all You're right. The site was way to busy. I'm not a web developer, so I had to create it using a standard template from the Ning.com networks. Pretty cool tools. They allow you to set up a website or forum in minutes, but their sites are a little busy. So, I stripped out the template and went with a plain white framework and added the colors back in. I also fixed the logo, putting a white background on it and cutting as much of the bottom off as I can to move it closer to the Nav bar. Finally, I removed everything from the left hand column to further simplify it by making it a two column page. I currently have developers working on a submission form to standardize submissions. Hopefully they will also fix it so that the deal or product image is displayed instead of the submitter avatar. Once that's completed, hopefully I can run the contest in the contest section of the forum. Thanks for all the input. Reps sent!
