Hi There Quikrinfo. Good work so far on the website. I recently came across an online tool that you might find useful to help improve your niche website. The tool is improvemywebsite.com.au and it gives you a free audit of your website, telling you want things you should improve. I often use this tool now whenever I am looking to improve a website. The human perspective is also valuable, so here is my 2 cents... The format that you are using is a bit of a dated format. There are some really nice and cheap templates that you can get online. In particular there is a template called the "one page website" which is similar to your concept, but much more modern. I believe that if you moved your content into the "one page website" template, the response to it would be much great. Just an idea!
Well, you don't HAVE a design for a website; you have a static picture that tells us nothing about how it's going to be responsive, how the user will interact with it, if you have logical document structure, or any of the dozens of other things that should be done LONG before you start thinking about ONE of the MANY possible visual layoutS That said, everything just kinda feels slapped into that picture any-old-way. Inconsistent use of fonts, too many conflicting CTA's, it reeks of having been "designed" by a marketing exec who doesn't know what a website is. Though it does do an EXCELLENT job of screaming "This is an online marketing scam!" - which is perfect given the topic of the site.
Yeah... I can count at LEAST 15 different fonts at a quick glance (I suspect we're closer to 20 all in all) - and the color-choices, layout etc. screams "bad design" - sorry, but the site isn't "nice" - it's horrible. There are 3 ads "above the fold" - granted, I won't see them due to adblock, but that doesn't really work very well - content first, always - granted one ad above the menu might be okay, but then you should at least make sure that there is content on the rest of the page before adding more ads. There are way too many inconsistent fonts and colors - remember that as a rule of thumb, you use max 5 colors for a page (plus grayscale / black/white) - and those 5 colors should be in some kind of sync - if you want to use more, you go for different shades within a couple of the colors - and of course you can utilize things like red, green, yellow and blue for error, success, warning and info-textboxes, but don't do this for permanent items on a page (unless those colors for some reason fits on the overall theme). And so forth and so on.
Same. I think you'd be better off using a free template, have you thought about using wordpress as a CMS? plenty of free themes you can use..
