Website Review and Suggestions

**microcolt** · 11:36 PM

If you could please review my website and tell me what i could do to better serve my users or point out any bugs that i may have missed. I've spent long hours and a lot of time on the site. Of course there is a lot more back-end then i could possibly tell you about but give it a try. Bad reviews wont hurt my feelings because i know for a fact there is worse.

5 GB of free space to all of those who sign up, how could you possibly go wrong? (By the way the 5GB of free space if for EVERYONE not just the people that test it.)

I wonder why a file sharing website requires login and registration? You will loose out on potential customers signing up because of this. You should provide a 'non-login' interface as well. Once people start using your site frequently, you can ask them to register. A flash demo will also be good so that people know why exactly it is so simple.

Well, how else am i to limit bandwidth to each user? How can i determine who is allowed to use the site if they do something wrong? How can i send them an email of file expiration every 90 days? These are all solved simply by people registering. Its hassle free and you dont even need to activate an account. Besides, how would you remember all your uploaded files, save, edit, or delete them without remembering all the randomly generated links?

1.The landing page is nice, professionally looking and clean. However, I would make all the text next to the icons bigger. They're somewhat small and I had to almost squint to read it.

2.You should have something standing out (a logo, or sentence) that explains right away that this is a file storage site. It's not clear right away, and not everyone who finds your site will want to start reading to see what it's about.

3.Until you have a whole lot more of files/users, I would take down the statistics on the bottom of the page. Right now, it doesn't look very good with the low numbers.

Good luck!

simply put why they should register on the home page. They will get notifications on on-comming deletions, and extra perks, what ever they may be. And you can limit bandwidth by ip address'.

I like the overall layout of the site, but 2 things. First, there is no logo? The name of the site is not written anywhere. 2nd, the Join & Login buttons are obnoxiously big and do not go with the rest of the site.

I would suggest you use different buttons for the login & join, and include nice icons like on the left as part of the buttons.

Thanks for the feed back on all of you that visited but it seems that no one has actually entered the site and seen what it has to ACTUALLY offer. I ask you to reconsider once you take a look inside and then carefully decide.

Other than that i will take most of your reviews into consideration.
