Hello all, I have just set up this site in the last few days and am in the process of trying to get the layout the way I want it. Please take a look at the site and give me your option of the layout and "feel" of the site. http://www.firstmortgagebuyer.com/ All feed back will be "appreciated" hlq
Hello HLQ. I had a look at your site today. My Thoughts Domain Name Your domain name is quite long. But it seems to do the trick. Logo & Header Your logo is simple and works. The only thing I would recommend for this is that you make the text as a vector image. Right now the text seems to be pixelizing. Love it that you have a good tag line with your logo. Header works good.. Template Your template has a nice layout. The spacing for the text is great. It is difficult to read it in an 800X600 resolution. Content I would recommend that you share what country this content is geared towards. I'm not even sure if it relates to any country. Just from an International perspective... it seems the site is based for US residents only. When placing site links, I would recommend that you place the link on a text item rather than displaying the whole text link. It seems to throw off your alignment in the content. Excellent content information. Navigation You seem to have duplicate navigation button links on your site. You have a top menu navigation link which is the same as the left column navigation link. I'd recommend removing the left navigation. Your register page brings you to a location away from your site template. Is it possible to integrate this page into your template? This way you can keep your navigation links... making it easier for user. Calendar What is the purpose of having the calendar? Conclusion Overall.... the site is very good. Just a few items to touch up. Good Job! This review was done using 3 web browsers (FireFox 2.0.0.9, Internet Explorer 6.02 & Opera 9.24) on Windows XP SP2. I do hope this was helpful. Respectfully, Lhlalyam
Lhlalyam - thank you for a very in depth review, it was helpful and I have made some changes per your suggestions. crazycatsville - thank you
I like the site, easy to navigate and the header is cool. I like how you have the RSS feed there. You might want to look into your keywords on each and every page for optimization. I hope this helps.
I is a nice site for the mortgage market, but where did the daily reel come from. I watched it and felt it did not fit well with the rest of the site. My 2 cents... Good luck
