Hi All IT-Globalized.com is a reasonably new online Freelancing Website. Thought I'd just put our hand out there and ask for some feedback on the design aspects of the website. We are considering re-vamping the homepage, and tuning the rest of the site slightly. I guess the following are my key questions I have: 1. Do you get what the site is about in the first 5 seconds? 2. If not, what do you think could be done to enable that? 3. Any enhancements you might think of to convey the essence of the message below in the first 5 seconds of being on the site? 4. Any general improvement suggestions? Oh, in case you don't get what the site is about; hahaha there's the concept in a nut-shell, I guess essentially what we try to convey in the first 5 seconds people visit the site: IT-Globalized.com exists to connect small and medium business outsourcing service providers regardless of locations, and assist them to develop a successful relationship, be it onshore or offshore, project work, contracts or permanent employment.
Hey ITG! 1) I got a good idea of what it was right away...but I'm also somewhat in the industry, so a lot of the vocabulary was familiar. I'm assuming your target market will be the same, so that's ok. 2) N/A 3) N/A 4) The design feels too templatized to me (as a designer). Did you use a template or was it hand-made? I think maybe it's that main header image?
Hi Smash Templatized, interesting comment, hehe - that's a first. Hehe, you should have seen the header before . There was a quite distinct feature we got rid of up there. I guess after that, it did sort of loose some of it's individuality, but we'll be sure to bring some of that back with the re-vamp. Thanks for your comments=).
1. Business/IT 2. Show some current projects on main page 3. Yeah, you could put some text/banner in top 4. Projects, projects, projects
