Hi all,

Many may have seen this site already. But i am thinking of making some changes and would like to hear some opinions of the current site as it is first.

I would also like to hear any ideas of how it could be improved.

Let me know what you think...

Hi Eric,

I quite like the site as it is, however, would it be possible to make the
pictures of the products across the top a little sharper/clearer?

That's the only thing that wasn't quite right to me. The site is very
clear and simple, and I like your colours.

Take care
Jean

Hi Eric,
I like the colors (Good soothing healthy color scheme) My only comment would be to bump up the Body font one size for us with tired old eyes. I stare at a screen 12 - 14 hours a day and when I get to a site with anything less than a 10 PT font, I will usually just keep on going.
Just make sure to keep your signup form above the fold (So it shows when the page is first opened )

Thanks,

I was asked by the company i represent to change some of the body images as it looked too much like the company site... so i'll take these ideas into consideration when updating...

Thanks again.

I like the soothing spa colors myself, also, looks nice. I think the thing that would sell this page is a couple of testimonials. I am just speaking from the consumer standpoint. Maybe if you run it through link referral a couple of days you might happen upon someone whom has actually tried it-just a thought

The site is nice but too commercial. I would look to add a personal touch.

Hi Eric - I was going to comment on the similarity with the ONEGroup site - but see you have already been there!!! I know from my own experience they don't like you using their images and also there should be a banner saying it is an independent site. I like the idea of signing up for more information.
I went on a IM conference recently and one of the questions that kept coming up was -" what do you want people to do on that page?".

It seems to me you want them to sign up for more information - so perhaps when they sign up it could take them to a page that gives them the info you have on your front page. In other words keep your front page simple!!

Hi Reta,

Thanks for the comment.

I updated the main image about 12 hours ago. I took the people away and added the new image that is currently there.

Hi Eric,

Your site is very easy to navigate...I've read the other comments - so I won't repeat things that were already said.

I wondered WHO I was going to be purchasing products from...I wonder if you could put a small BIO blurb about you on the mainpage...maybe to the left of your opt-in form. Or maybe just a "My Favorite Product IS..." spot with just a few lines about your favorite product on the site, one that you use...I might want to go search for that product and see what benefits that product offers...and you could change that area from time to time, too, and see if that makes a difference in which products sell on-site...

Tracy,

Thats a Great idea. I've been wondering about that blank spot.

I'll take your advice.

Eric.
