My first WordPress site. Feedback would be much appreciated.
-
A nice clean website for business. Love your color scheme. They all blend to-gether. You have given me a great idea on your contact page for the fast secure contact form. I am also new at this web site building for business purposes. check me out at http://www.retailguidance.com I have been building it for 4 months now. It is slowly coming along.
cheers
TedThanks, 67mapleleafs. I’m concerned that the site is too simple. I eventually want to be able to make them more complex like yours. Is there a guide you’ve followed that you could recommend?
Also, how did you get those “spinning blocks” on your homepage? Is that a plug in?
I think a good improvement would be to change the font for the content-text. Right now it looks kind of stiff. Otherwise the site was fantastic. I´m even impressed.
Thanks Loke. Any particular font that you’d recommend?
I´m not very good with fonts to be honest but I´ve seen something called andalus that might work 🙂
Then again, I don´t know if that font is available for WordPress.
Hey Will Guy you can improve your SEO.
Hey Azadshaikh, are you referring to “on site SEO” like placing keywords in the header and footers, etc? I haven’t gotten to that yet.
Is there another kind of SEO you were referring to?
Well, it’s an ok design but I would put other text colors in it. And also as all ready said: SEO.
(Also: Need Copy Right)I had wrote a post on on site seo you can read it @ http://www.internetgeeks.org/blog/6-critically-essential-page-search-engine-optimization-factors/
quick suggestion, change your permalink to seo friendly urls.
you can also read my this post for more seo plugins: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/1st-siteany-tips?replies=11#post-1970869
After having good on site seo you have to work on off site seo too. Both are important. IMO off site seo is even more important.
Thanks Azadshaikh!
Recommend any particular text colors, nerx?
Your theme link colors are fine. You should change your main content text color to BLACK.
http://themeforest.net/item/prosto-business-portfolio-cms-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/102796 check out the above link. The theme for my website is a paid word press theme that I bought from Word press. The sliding boxes is called a 3-D Slider. A very nice theme to work with. My site wwww.retailguidance.com is built on this theme. Hopefully it will give you some good ideas.
I agree with Azad on your text. You should make it black
Thank you to everyone here for the feedback. Very helpful!
also, the “site map” header is hard to read, particularly the “m” in map. Unbolding it should help.
When you click on pages that don’t require a scrolling, the page shifts slightly to the left. It’s a common problem since most modern browsers will eliminate the scroll bar when it isn’t need. Add this code to force a the scroll bar there to prevent the slight shift:
html { overflow-y: scroll; margin: 28px; }
