Website Review and Suggestions

**mirohristov** · 04:34 AM

WebsiteSavannah.com
(WIP)
This is just a layout (not yet functional).
Something like a Landing Page. My goal is maximum conversion (of course

)
Please review it.

i was thinking of how to be more constructive but i'll start with saying "blah!"

logo, stock photos and layout looks dated - not sure whether you could revamp your logo - it would help a lot with the colour scheme. logo should be a gif or 8-bit png

omg - you have the date top right? did you use frontpage? lol - remove it and move the floating laptop there, or preferably move your 'global' naviagtion there (why is that i a different font?)

favicon is a different colour to logo

highlighted page in navbar is hard to read (red on dark blue is not a good combination)

use some proper headings (h1, h2)
don't underline text that's not a link

the whole page could do with some consistency: stock photos with or without background but all the same. it needs some visual hierarchy maybe tie in one picture with each point/area rather than having 2 columns of images that split focus in two directions at once - and pull the eye away from the text

oh yeah, tables haven't been used for layout for years now, at least not by web designers/developers.

Dave,
I'm so sorry. I misspelled my own website.
It should be WebsiteSavannah.com not savannah website dot com

It took me a while to figure out what is going on.
I got to the h1 h2 and realized something is wrong

Again. Sorry for the confusion.

lol - well done i just spent 15 minutes illustrating some points ( http://pp.kpnet.fi/prescott/stuff/da...es-georgia.jpg )
bit of a difference

will get to a proper review of the proper site later then...

one thing that jumps out at me (apart from the site looking great) is that the period at the end of "yes! we are local" seems to be floating in the air

OMG! Your redesign of that ugly website looks 100x better.
You should send it to them and sell it

The dot appears like that on this font. I'll fix it on final release

(Sorry. I feel extremely ashamed)

typo in salses (salsas?

)
could use more line height in the 1,2,3 and package info text but otherwise it's layed out really well and has just the right amount of text. excellent job

oh not sure about "m-f" maybe "mon-fri" instead?

the height of footer is a bit long. i am using firefox and the page height seems a bit long as well. the pig with contact info looks a bit awkward may be you can change that. rest is great.

**mirohristov** · 01-14-2012, 07:13 PM

@davemies:
salsas - hahah nice catch! Thanks

mon-fri - definitely!
I'll also fix the line height once i XHTML+CSS it

Thank you!

@ivedtara: the height of footer is a bit long - The idea is that it will be a contact form once its turned into a website but i used the same design for a brochure.
What do you mean about the pig? Get rig of it or just the contact bubble ?
Thank you!

i like the pig - it adds a little bit of something to a business site

**toocool2betrue** · 02-20-2012, 05:39 PM

I loved it! Nice header.Only it could be shorter but looks like you all need that parts. Good luck

**FokeBox** · 02-22-2012, 01:41 PM

Design looks very attractive with its colors and images. But the website looks not so informative for me ... so when page was uploaded i just could see some offers and that's it. So I would add some general inforamtion on the index page, who you are and what you do etc.
Best regards,
Fokebox

When considering if you should abbv. or not, always choose not to abbreviate. Always looks cleaner.
