I am looking for members of DP too over my site and let me know what you all think. Also, let me know if there is anything that you would remove or add. You can visit my site here.
Quite a pleasant experience . The Banner menu's buttons could use a bit more color and the landing page content could use some enrichment .
Banner Menu's, do you mean the images that I have on the slider? And what color would you recommend? I am also working on adding more content to the home page. I don't like changing live pages so I am doing it on my local system then will upload the changed files once complete.
Ya I mean the button that triggers the slide . Perhaps adding some gradient to the entire button and adding embossing and outer glow to the text , but keep the clean looks .
I will do that. I will play around with the psd a bit and see what I come up with. Thanks for the input.
typo : "talking the time to" think you mean "taking" Design wise, pretty good. The masin thing I'd say is I think you need to make it more clear what you're selling. I know it's obvious that it's hosting by having a bit of a look around, but as hosting isn't mentioned in the domain, I would advise that you change the "Welcome to UrPad.net" header, to something like "KICK ASS HOSTING PLANS" or whatever. Also, I think you need to put some thought into your copy, maqke it about the visitor more, and about you less. I.e "We are looking to make ourselves know on the web hosting market" the csuteomt doesn't want to see that, the customer wants to see that you're offering what s/he wants, with a better services & lower prices than elsewehere. Also, some of the wording & punctuation needs revising, for instance : "Unlike some other web hosting companies. We like to keep our prices as low as we possibly can" The use of a period & then the cap W in we, means you're saying "Unlike some other web hosting companies." and then starting a new sentence. I'd advise you bring hosting into the page title also - "Claim your pad on the internet" is not going to help you with organic search engine traffic. I'd advise some keyword research & modeify your onpage SEO accordingly. I'd have a think about putting it on a more keyword rich domain also, it really does make a difference, i.e.urpadhosting.com, urpadcheaphosting, or whatever. It really does make life easier to gain decent google ranking when the main term is included in the domain. Thanks Kev
I am very thankful for the well need pointers. I am now typing a new layout for the home page. I am not the greatest writer in the world but I don't mind the pointers. That is what make us all better in life.
@KevL I have used your pointers that you provided and made some changes to the front page. The 1st paragraph and the little bout use text has been changed as well as the title to the page.
Thanks for comments. They are very much welcomed. @eddiecon, I am working on getting a new logo. I plan on running a contest on this site but I have to wait till I am able to post. I should be able too in the next few days.
Overall the first impression is good site, however certain points in my opinion to worth considering 1. The header slider when you click one, the others gets slight movement, I think it's intentional but it distracts.. and the sliding should be smooth 2. Green color over footer menu seems too bright and you should consider putting something over it to hide too much attention to it 3. Internal page like whmcs services, seems bit empty on right hand side of table, you should consider putting relevant information to fill the gap 4. footer links, terms privacy are coming in default blue color, you should consider them showing at theme color that's all I have found at brief survey, hope they are useful to you regards MagentoC
@yhe, The secure payment page come with WHMCS @daysourav, I sure hope it does. My site went form an Alexa ranking of 8 mil to 2 mil in just under a week @MagentoC, The template that I am use was made by someone else. I just paid for it and had it integrated into WHMCS. I will see if I can find out how to make the slider move smoother. The green bar above the footer. I am working on getting some small 20 x 20 or smaller icons to put on it. The WHMCS Services page was just made and added last night. It is not the finish page but the basic so customers can see what we have to offer. I will be adding more content to it over the next few days. The footer links for the ToS, Privacy, & AUP. I will get those changed. I need to google how to make the link a specific color. I am still learning html and I have learned alot over the last month while I have been working on the site. Thanks for all the pointers and comments. Please keep them coming as they are very much welcomed.
Thats not pixel distortion on the sliding banner buttons. I put a inner glow of blue on them. The blue is the same blue that is on the top of the pages in the background. If that is not what you are talking about, let me know.
