ctec2001 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 New store about to be published in about a month. I would like to have the community look at the store and checkout some of the contributions used. It is not a complete store as the shipping, privacy and conditions are not yet populated. Please critque. Thank you, New Box Store Do or Do Not, there is no try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spax Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 It's pretty uninspiring! I appreciate boxes aren't the most exciting of products but you could liven it up a little. I think the shopping cart and search boxes should have prominence, so I would move them to the top of the left column. The header banner looks a bit rough. I would do that again, to make it look smoother and more professional. I wouldn't even bother with that text image. If you aren't going to do anything fancy to it, you may as well have real text there. Search engines can read text so it is a waste to have it in an image. The create account/log in links at the bottom are hardly noticeable. Maybe you could put them somewhere else, you can at least change the font colors so they stand out. You need some meta tags. Install one of the meta tag contributions. Your product descriptions are very sparse. Get some more information into them - content is everything! Why is there no image on the product info pages?

Ok, yes. I believe the Shopping Cart and Search should be moved up. What do you have in mind to make the banner more smother and professional. Maybe round the corners and put some fading color? The text, yes, I will need to change that, thank you. I was actually thinkg of moving the create login to the top center of the main page or maybe add in the header next to My Account which I might change to LOG IN and the other would be CREATE ACCOUNT. This would be instead of having the sentence at the bottom. Meta Tags, do you have any contributions that you could recommend. The image disappeared I think when I added a contribution to display a table with a price breakdown. I will look into that and maybe just move the code for the picture to another row or something. Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Do or Do Not, there is no try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Compared with the site that I have just looked at your site is marvellous! I didn't look at in in depth, but it is very simple and looks OK. It would look even better if you made the colour of the buttons match your colour scheme. You need to fill in your "Shipping & Returns" and "Conditions of Use" etc. A picture in the Product Description would possibly improve the site. P.S. I'm glad your Printer Boxes aren't moving!
