Please review my site

the url is http://softwareholic.com
would the design and layout attract you to buy?
appreciate any suggestion to improve it. thanks

 

Is this like a one deal one day or you can buy as many products as you wnat... the home page does not tell me exactly what is the site about.... at first lok it looks like you offering one software one day? Is it so?

 

Yes, I would change the front page to an "about" page or something similar. Maybe include the featured download in a little box on the side.

 

I think you have done a good job but you have to make sure your visitors finds what they are looking for with in 3 clicks.

 

I'd change front page to something like category-tree with 3-4 popular products pictured links.
Instead colored butons I'd placed text links "DL trial" and "buy" right below image. Buy buttons id place right after description and I'd arrange them horizontaly.
IMHO Buttons dont look functional. Buttons should use either underlined words or be animated abit.

 

To me, this site looks more like a blog than an e-commerce store. Maybe that's just because the menu is not separated from the main body.

The frontpage definitely needs some work. It does look like you're just selling that one program. There needs to be some kind of menu to find things easier.

The buying process seems a bit shady too. First it takes me to a new domain without warning. So I am immediately wary of purchasing. Then I notice that it automatically adds $7.99 for 'Extended Download Service'. It's a nice feature to offer, but not for that much money and not automatically added on. Maybe offer this service for free and advertise that promotion on your frontpage. Maybe also list some other reasons to buy from your site on the frontpage.

 

Nice clean looking website but it looks like a blog and not an e-commerce. Add side bars to the left and make it more like an e-commerce website and not a blog site. Good Luck

 

that's a very useful guideline!

looks like i need to work on the front page first.
thanks for all the valuable suggestions guys and gals

 

ya looks pretty good

 

thanks iit_m2002

have touch up the homepage over the weekend to look less like blog.
what do you guys think? looks better?

 

The design itself is very nice and clean, brought me to attention. You should be successful!

 

Hmm,the website is verry god,design is verry nice for me.Congratulations and succes.

 

thanks for the encouraging words, xtek & mariushca

 

good design, but your site tabs rounded corners are not that smooth.. for good impression, you need to improve it.

 

good design, but header logo should improve, try not to use the same color as background.

 

The layout of the site looks like you are trying to sell an ebook, instead of software. I'd say create menus on the left and top.

 

looks fine...the design is good

 

Definitely revamp your design, encourage people to look within.
