Comments on My Website

Hello,
I have been designing websites for the past 10 years or so, but have
never succeeded in creating a Sales pitch page. I launched this
website a month ago and did a Terrific job Doing Email marketing. It
hit the roof with 30,000 Visitors world wide. I was targetting Web
design Companies to outsource work to me. The unfortunate part was
that i never had a single SALE... I dont know what went so bad. With
so may hits and near 400 Enquiries nothing turned out to be good. I
wanted to know what is wrong with the website. Is there anyone who can
help me and let me know what i should do with the Website specifically
from the Sales point of veiw..

The website is PR4 On google and its doing well on TRAFFIC. No
CONVERSIONS though :( its on http://www.design2host.net

Thanks a lot... I hope someone will be able to help me on this

If you are trying to convince web design companies to outsource to you then
the first thing you would need would be a web site that validates, and one
that is readable, with a font size something more than 11 pixels.

I'd like to think some of the problem is that your site has errors
(check with validator.w3.org), but most people don't seem to care
too much about that.

Perhaps it's because your fonts are too small; if I didn't have a
minimum font size set in my browser, I wouldn't be able to read it.

Perhaps it's because your page doesn't fill a wide browser window
and requires horizontal scrolling in a narrow one.

Perhaps it's because you have justified text in a narrow column
causing lines to have bizarrely wide spaces between words. See:
<http://cfaj.freeshell.org/testing/d2h.jpg>.

Perhaps it's because you have a communication form before you have
given anyone a reason to communicate with you.

Perhaps it's because when a viewer clicks on "Portfolio", no
portfoliio shows up.

Perhaps it's because the "Team" page says nothing about your
"team", or because when one clicks on the "Cost on Services" link,
one does not see anything about costs or service.

In other words, your site provides nothing to make anyone want your
work.

They probably all peeked at your code...

<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbo...Fwebdesign.html>
"Failed validation, 10 Errors"

...on a page that states:
"Websites designed by Design2host meet certain standards

1. Bug/Error Free. Every aspect of the web pages and every web page is
checked individually to make sure that there are not bugs and errors on
it.
2. Meet Standards wherever possible. We Comply with the W3C Validations
and make sure that pages are to the required standards"

Or maybe it is just that nobody can read tiny white text on a red
background. Or maybe they don't like having to always scroll down to
find any content, because that block of stuff "Instant Communicate" and
some Flash thingy is taking up a large portion of the available area on
every page.

Let's look. Unblock Flash. Oh my, it moves. All the time. And it's
annoying.

Or maybe they see that your own site is just some cookie-cutter
Dreamweaver thing.

Nice looking site, graphically. The colors work nicely together.
However, I don't understand why the leaves are there (what do they have
to do with the WWW?), and what is the significance of the cat's eye (to
the leaves or the Web)?

The colors are nice to look at from far away but not good for using to
read info about your company. Text too small, poor contrast, etc. as
mentioned by others.

The "Instant Communicate" form tends to overflow its black background in
FF. The phrase "Instant Communicate" isn't grammatically error-free.
It's also not accurate, either, because when I fill in some info and
click "OK", I go to another, longer form you want me to fill out.

In short, too many errors for me to place confidence in the firm to do
business with. It looks like it's still an unfinished template. I'd bail
out, too. Sorry, but I HTH.

I like your site Nick. People would be crazy not to hire you. By the
way, how did you get so many hits?

I'll add to the comments others have made.

Your site has no focal point. When I first get to your home page, I
don't know where I am supposed to look. This may be in part because the
flash animation, which has nothing to do with the purpose of the site,
is visually too heavy. It is drawing attention away from more important
parts of the page.

The writing is poor English.

I tried clicking the logo in the upper left corner of the page to get
back to your home page, but nothing happened. I have learned to expect
clicking a logo to take me back to the home page.

If I were looking to outsource web design work, I would have to ask
myself, do I want the site I am building to work or look like yours? The
answer is no.

The main reason you have no sales is that, on the whole, people don't
hire web designers on the basis of a website they happen to have come
across after being on the receiving end of "email marketing". Your
biggest source of customers will be recommendations from existing
customers and from personal contact with prospective customers. You
need to do more networking, both formal and informal, and forget about
trying to get work by generating traffic to your website. People who
are looking for your site will find it. People who find your site
without looking for it are not, as a rule, going to be potential
customers.

Me too.

The validation errors are interesting - XML parse errors?

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=h...=Inline&group=0

I'm not experienced enough with the new validator. Analytics is
enabled on the page - it would be nice to see if the keywords
resulting in referrals are related to the targets.

India-based SEO has acquired a terrible reputation lately, though.

(i don't care about validation)

i agree with this:
1) Hate that flash
2) colours are oppressive
3) whats with the leaves and cats eye? they dont gel with the logo.
4) portfolio should contain examples of your work.
5) fixed width design
6) not obvious whats a button
7) Hate that flash (i really do)

it looks more like a portfolio site than a sales site. look at amazon,
not something like...i dunno...newgrounds?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bespoke

In this context, it means creating something from scratch to the
client's requirements, rather than adapting an existing template or
selling an off-the-peg[1] solution.

[1] Which, like "bespoke", also has its roots in tailoring.

Others are better qualified than me to comment about your website but if you
got 400 enquiries without a single sale then there's someting wrong with
your product offering itself.

Either the product isn't attractive or else it's overpriced.

Why don't you send a nice friendly email to those who made the enquiries
asking them why they didn't go ahead with your product - give them a simple
choice of no more than 4 or 5 possible reasons e.g. too expensive, doesn't
offer features needed, too complex, other - with an *option* to provide more
info if they want.

Such an email needs to be worded to make it clear that you are genuinely
interested in getting information from them, not an attempt to give them a
fresh sales pitch - that would rightly be classed as Spam.

I like that... I Have quoted a lot of them and marked to get working
on Most of them. Of course some of them will require more
clarifications, which i will be forced to email you. I am sorry to be
a bother. But i hope, with, pray that you will be able to help me.

Could you please clarify one point

Perhaps it's because you have a communication form before you have
given anyone a reason to communicate with you.

I am keen on my design so i dont want to mess it out. But if it
requires more sales i am ready to revamp the whole damn thing and i am
serious about it. Regarding the font size please let me know which one
would be more suitable. Since i am using CSS it would be a small
instant Job.

Thanks for your Support... I wish there were more people like you in
this world...

Hi There

OK. Now i know that i have to move the flash away or put it aside for
a while... Actualy that would be easier... I will recheck on the W3C
thingy... it should be wierd to say that it works sometimes and Goofs
at again later... This seems to be aconstant thing :(

Thanks for your comments. I sincerely appreciate your time and effort
on checking on the website. I promise to make the changes by evening
tomorrwo. I presume that much time is required to make all the
changes. Please check again and let me know if you think there is
something still wrong Later tomorrow evening

Warm regards
And Thank you again...

I think that was straight forward... Man... i was thinking of

design... But it would be worth it if i can get some sales... I liked
the last line of yur comment...

In short, too many errors for me to place confidence in the firm to do
business with.

That really hit me... So i guess a revamp will ahve to go in soon
thanks for your time...

Oh my god... some one says something bad and you are here
complimenting me... Damn i should say thanks... But i think i will
work on the few errors which seem to be genuine (like no content on
the Portfolio etc)... Eh sincerely thanks for the complement... i had
put in nearly 3 weeks on getting that design on and i could have
easily copied someone elses site but decided to get it done myself
with my own stuff on my head. and when some one complements that ...
it feels good.
Thanks a lot.

Regarding the traffic...
Most of my traffic comes from SEO. I had a dumb site before this ...
Only Search engine Optimized, with no design at all... it hit like a
hammer but then there were no sales. thats why i combined both ,
Search engine optimization and A Design for it... i top for good
keywords liek "Web design india" and "website design india" which
really draws traffic on Yahoo and MSN. Google unfortunately does not
seem to put me on top. I am working on the Links part still...
(External Links to my website which increases the PR and credibility
with google!!!) .

Thanks for the complement again

Thanks for your time. I sincerely appreciate it . The changes you

I have a website that provides freeware, software, ect. But unlike
you, I am not going to put much effort into using the email marketing
because I didn't find it efficient for my site. I don't know whether
it is the same case of you. Sometimes we should try some other
marketing methods.

I would not hire you for work because you are in India.

I receive so many of these Outsourcing emails by companies just like
you, most of the time my spam detector gets them but seriously it
drives me crazy. Working freelance I have had to work for clients by
approaching them directly in my local area addressing people without
websites ( as not to undermine other web development companies ),
focusing on each project with great detail I have built up a good
relationship with each client and now reap the benefits of their
referrals and things are going well.

Working in New Zealand, I refuse to outsource work overseas - looking
for talented young locals that I am able to collaborate with in person
is what I look for. This has worked well, keeping the money in my home
country.

It seems India has really boomed and offer great services in web
development at cheap prices - but you have to realise this affects the
profession in other countries.

Hope this is taken in good spirit as I am just being honest.

Kind Regards,
Liam

Why would anyone want to communicate with you before they have seen
your site? The form belongs after the content.

For almost all text, the font-size should be 1em or 100% as that is
what users will set as their preferred size.
