Website Review and Suggestions

**ocZio** · 03-30-2009, 09:53 AM

Hi all,

This is my first post to this section I would like to have your opinions about a freshly made website {build with a friend of mine}

The concept is simple, each day new games will be available for users.

Ok so,

The url is : http://www.BehindYourBoss.com

I would like to have your opinions about several topics:
- what you think about the menu? is it better to have right/left one or ?
- can you suggest any other SEO tips apart from title/keywords ?
- do you understand quickly how the website works from the first visit?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

I do not like the nav in the header. It doesn't even look like a nav but a list of keywords. Same goes for the utility nav.

I think that lime green compliments your choice of blue very well. I would try to work that more into the design. The logo needs work...Currently it does not stand out on your page and just sort of floats there.

As far as SEO, add keywords. You have next to nothing in your meta. Also add some actual content...A blurb about the website...Blurbs about each game...etc.

Agree with TripleMoons. Try to have a proper navigation menu. You can have a primary menu then secondary menu to accommodate all your navigations. You have quite a lot there..

Another things is the 'Recent Games' section. Too much white space in the middle. You can put some description about each game there. Also, the thumbnails can be a little bigger.

Consider a drop down menu to organize your game types. Try coming up with a logo to put on the header so you can develop and identity and not just have plain text. Besides that it's tip-top. Good luck. BTW I really like the name!

Thank you for your suggestions.

So the main problem is the identity and the menu.

I think I will switch to classic left/right menu and do some design for the logo as well.

Good point for the large icons it will be more easy to understand.

A quick question about title tag and SEO,

Is it good to havethe "domain name | something here" or the reverse?

I know what the nav reminds me of! A "keyword cloud" seen in blogs!

As far as the title tag...It doesn't matter what order you put it in, it's all personal preference. Personally, I like to make the title tags coherent so they make sense when you read them.

yep its a tag cloud :P

If you scroll and let your mouse on the links without clicking you get the number of the games inside each section

It still should be ditched and an appropriate navigation provided. If you want to have a tag cloud, put one in a sidebar.
