    Hello Everyone!
    I was wondering if anyone can make any recommendations for my new site. It's an online Bikini and lingerie shop. www.honeystream.com

    I checked out your site and it's not bad. :p
    The design is unique, which is a good thing. I would suggest having a new logo designed though, it looks pretty plain. I am a designer, so if you do want a new logo design you should send me a PM. :)

    Anyways, the advertisements look natural and it looks like they are placed very well.

    I can't really find anything to complain about, so good job!

    What is the purpose of the banner right before the footer? If it is to show what are the promotions going on your site, it should be at the top. I wouldn't know about a promotion if I don't scroll down, right?

    Your site looks pro. But it is quite empty ie it would be great if you can put some commentaries or at least have a column to attract some readers to stay on. Tips corner etc would be helpful.

    Try to add content useful for your buyers(or potencial buyers). Articles may go viral and you'll also get some traffic from SE.

    I checked your site:

    0 PR.
    205 Pages indexed in Google.
    411 Pages indexed in Yahoo,

    Some what on page optimization is needed,

    And Strong link building require for your website.

    only 15 links are pointing to your website in yahoo explored, which is very less, i mean to say it's nothing.

    Get rid of the social media icons. They make no sense in the context of a shopping site.

    FIRST THING FIRST -- don't post your posts one after another..instead edit them..

    posting again and again one after another is spamming and you can get banned..


    about the site

    -- new logo is required
    -- why is that honey stream large square image is required when you already have the name in the header..
    -- the sitemap link below the header should go in FOOTER..sitemap isn't something which should be there in header...

    by the way if you need a new logo than participate in my blogs contest (link in signature) and you can win a new custom logo design for FREE

    do add rep if you find this useful..

    thnx

    Thanks for giving me the heads up on the posts? So obvioulsy it better to reply as quote right? You are right I can use a new logo. Regarding the square, that was an idea by the designer. You have great ideas. Can you update the site for me? What do you charge if possible?

    Social media icons are bad? Someone recommended those because he said it would bring more traffic. So you recommend removing them?

    Definitely. Ask yourself, if you were shopping and you saw social media submit icons at the end of each product, would you submit it to Digg or Reddit or one of the countless others? Of course you wouldn't. They serve their purpose, just not in a webstore.

    Larger thumbnails. You can't see what you might buy until you click it, then click it again to enlarge.

    Perhaps stock up in sizes less than Medium/Large/XLarge.

    Thanks

    well if the main items you are trying to sell are bikinis and lingerie. you might want to change the flash on the first page. put some more attractive pictures there. as a designer i have to tell you i'm not happy with the types of font being used on the flash video.

    I think the site looks good but you should consider adding some text to it, text is great not
    only for your readers but also for seo purposes.

    Is the site using osCommerce?

    And yes, you need more text added...you want to be loved by the search engines, don't you :)?
