Please critique my website

[jamesosix]

Hi guys,



After reading some of the tips from the good folks here, I have altered my main gig a lot. Its for Expert website reviews. I have done a squeeze page - come - mini website (google (and me) hate squeeze pages) so I figured, I would try something a bit different. I would make a one page (well two, if you include the PP) site and have all the content on the site. the goal is to encourage any traffic to click through to my gig and if they don’t, then at least share it or social engage with it.



I would love to know what people think and I am very open to people being honest and can handle negative feedback. Its all to make me better.



Thanks

so how do i get feedback on site that is purely geared towards driving traffic TO fiverr?



I have seen others post links to sales pages etc. So, why no external links? Is this not a forum?

[Guest jeffmoses]

From what he is saying it is a website purely to drive traffic to his fiverr gig…

[jamesosix]

its a fiverr gig page that I am looking for top sellers to give me advice to improve it…which section should I do this in then please? Also I’m not going to buy gigs - I’m trying to make money, not give it away. I’m not asking for anything in depth, just a simple “this needs working, or that doesn’t really get the right message across” etc.



I’m pretty confused. On one hand you say “Sales pages for fiverr products or fiverr related blogs are allowed” On the other you say I’m not…

[Guest jeffmoses]

Post in the My Fiverr Gigs section 😉

[jamesosix]

Cheers for the suggestion Jeff 🙂

Give me a short while

[jamesosix]

Thank you very much Wayne, I appreciate your assistance.



Now people give it to me straight - what would you change/improve/add etc? All feedback is appreciated!



thanks

[jamesosix]

Excellent idea there! I will look at tweaking it around over the next day or two, after I have had a play with it.



It is that kind of feedback that is exactly what I am looking for! Cheers again OBG.

Good website layout



’Order Now’ could be an immediate turn-off for potential clients. I would change that to ‘Get Started’ or another short phrase.



Consider highlighting the fact that the service is only 5$. You can get away with doing this WITHOUT looking cheap, just make that you are comfortable with the level of professionalism your site shows off.



In other words, if you were to have a few graphics highlighting the $5 price point, make sure the rest of the site screams professional, or explains how much of a great deal that the SAME service could cost hundreds or even thousands in consulting fees!

Reply to @ozzieuk: Wow, really encouraging words! Thanks, means a lot to me. When you say “these parts” you mean sunny Britain? 😃



Reply to @arnevb: Thanks!



Reply to @hotwebideas:

Cheers will check it out 🙂



Reply to @fiverphil: I completely agree on the “buy now”. I was trying to think of something more “gentle”, but couldn’t think of anything. Both top notch suggestions, thanks 🙂 Added to the to do list!



Thanks everyone, I am really happy with what I have, but these suggestions are going to hopefully take my mini-site up a couple of more notches. I will be doing some minor changes as suggested and really appreciate you guys taking time to give me feedback!



You all rock! 😃

Reply to @jamesosix: Not so sunny here in the Peak District today, lots of snow !

[fiverphil]

No Doubt, It’s already a fantastic website layout.

Great Idea & Best of luck!

I recommend that you make your contact icon more visual the white on white is not good. There are alot of royalty free icons that you can get from smashing magazine.



Pick a few and test them out.



I also recommend adding a liner arrow , to suggest and hit the contact button.



Will check back again and give you a few more hints. 🙂

[jamesosix]

Reply to @fiverphil: thanks I appreciate your kind words!

Reply to @ozzieuk: Ahh same here in the deep sticks of South Wales haha.

Reply to @routezap: Yeah, thats a good idea! I’ll get that sorted in the next day or so, time depending.



Put OBG suggestion on about highlighting the price of the service and fiverphil’s about the order now buttons, saying “get started”. Massive improvements! Also added some more text.



Thank guys!



As a thanks to you guys (all posters in this thread), if any of you order my review gig, I will give you the choice of one of my other 2 gigs, for free.



Cheers! 😃

Reply to @twistedweb123: Yeah, I use Google url shortner because I find its widely accepted (especially on twitter). Thanks for the tip though, I am sure it will benefit somebody!



Ahh, I may know some of you then haha. Its a small world! 🙂
