Hi guys

This is my online web store for our new product.

It is www.adovationz.co.nz

I am open for any suggestions as I am a newbie and have done it myself so I realise it will be open for re-design.

What I mainly want is suggestions on my Products page to help make our products more saleable. Do I need more info on it or less ?

Thanks

Digby

I think you could actually cut some info out.
For ex.

'To order your Adkafs, add the items you require to your cart, then in the Shopping Cart enter the number required. You will be able to add other items and colours as you wish by clicking "Continue Shopping" in your cart.'

Basic rule of thumb is that your website should not need a user manual.
If it does your design needs fixing. I think anyone who is likely to buy from you has used a shopping cart before so there is no need to describe the process. People dont read instructions anyway. Remember the last time you bought an electrical appliance? Did you read the instruction book in detail before you started using it?

Important tip.
You are using Comic Sans font (I think).
You must change it.
Comic Sans is for hobby sites, not business sites.

Good luck.

Comic sans isnt for anything. Do not use comic sans. You should make your own add to cart buttons.

Well, since you are a n00bie I won't be rude but I will give you some constructive criticism. First off I do not understand why you would want a counter visable on yoru website. Your something like 'Google Analytics' (http://www.google.com/analytics/) which will provide you with tones more information such as: what search engines do you obtain more clients from, where do most of your clients come from, what browsers do they use and much more.

I don't understand why the websites just slightly left aligned. Either center it or make it left aligned. You have selected a color scheme - great job but you have also killed the color scheme. You used the grays over and over its just started to look blah. Add color but keep in mind to stay within the color scheme. To much color can make it look takie and kiddish.

Your coding is very clean. Overall its a good start on a website but you have areas that need to be addressed and improved.

hey, nice site,
few suggestions,
laptop image have white background and webpage have greyish background
both should match, u can show grey/transperant background for laptop image

I think header should have link to home page

show the statcounter inline with share/save tab, so that u can reduce height of page

contact us page does not have header footer, this does not look good

have a great time!!!

good idea, but I really would invest some money in a site redesign, the content/basics are there but the look and feel are not good. You can ask people for quotes under the 'jobs' section on this site. It's free toask people for quotes

You may want to minimize the amount of white and grey (atleast gradient it). The contrast of color paired with the generic looking setup gotta be fixed. Keep trying and good luck

Black and white are kind of the de facto national colors of New Zealand
(think All Blacks Rubgy Team) which is why they probably
chose that color scheme.

Even so, for the 99% of the worlds population who wouldnt know
that, it just looks rather drab.
Black is a rather sinister, untrustworthy looking color
so its not really a good choice if you want somebody
to trust you enough to make an online purchase.

Thanks guys for the great suggestions and comments so far.
For a newbie with no graphic / design sense I think you have awarded me 5 out of 10 ! (not too bad)
The main comments seem to be
Don't use Comic Sans (I Used this on another website where a zany look was needed)
Too much black - get rid of some grey and white.
More colour on some screens
Get rid of Stat Counter or move it.
More info on Contact Us Page
To much wasted text on Products order page
So I will work on these over the next few weeks.
Any more comments will of course be gratefully received.

Yep. If you do all of those things your site will probably
look twice as good as it does now. And hopefully
bring in twice the reveune

Design is not easy and I think all of us started by making
clunky looking sites. So don't worry. Its all a learning curve.
