I write niche market software for the screen printing industry. I might be good at that although my web mastering skills have a lot to be desired. Anyhow, for those with a few minutes to spare, take a look at my primary site http://ultraseps.com Any suggestions on how to improve it in any way is appreciated. The site is maintained using Adobe Go Live CS2. Thanks!
Ok, that's full of issues -- this is hardly surprising given what a steaming pile of grade A farm fresh rose fertilizer anything Adobe is in terms of building a website. Your layout is broken beyond belief here, and that appears to be caused by EVERYTHING being absolute positioned -- instead of letting flow do it's job. In terms of just simple stuff, your sea green on white text is far below accessibility minimums, and that grey text is no winner either. The narrow little stripe fixed width on the content is also particularly bad, and I'd put some serious thought into trying to divide that content into columns or reduce the amount of content -- at the very least swing a giant axe at that space wasting image rotator that just gets in the way of the content. Under the hood it's just another of these laundry lists of how not to build a website that EVERYONE seems to be posting now -- as if we've been magically sent back in time to 1998. Tranny document, HTML 3 in your XHTML doctype, tables for layout, pointless DIV for nothing, empty form for christmas only knows what, tags and attributes that have ZERO business in modern HTML like BGCOLOR, ALIGN and FONT, line breaks doing padding's job, Nothing remotely resembling semantic markup or even logical document structure/heading orders, Adobe's stupid malfing fictional made up bull "csobj" tags, pointlessly overstuffed keywords meta, lack of MEDIA targets on your LINK tags for the CSS, etc, etc... I could go on for a LONG time about the code. ... as evidenced by the 22k of markup to deliver 4.4k of plaintext -- easily two or even three times as much HTML as should have been used on such a simple page. Likewise the 37 images totalling a megabyte and a half makes the page painful to watch load. While two-thirds that is the massively useless "gee ain't it neat" rotating image garbage, some optimization of the image files wouldn't hurt. Also, this is not the review area -- though good luck figuring that out with this stupid malfing forum software hiding the subforums on the main index... that's not your fault
So I guess you liked it? LMAO! Thanks for taking the time to voice your opinion. I'll try and address some of the issues although that bloated image rotator is fairly important. Possibly I can reduce the physical dimensions of the images. The website began life as a Go Live 4 (very old) ecommerce template so there's a load of garbage in there to begin with. The site for my next product will be done using either wordpress or joomla.
I think you need to brush up a lot on the website design. If I were you I'd pay someone $100 to design your site for you. I'm sure they would do a much better job than what your site looks like right now. I think they're are just wayyy too many links in the footer. At least, create tables for them to make it look neater. To be honest, it looked like the entire design of the site was rushed.
