Do you have some words of encouragement for talltom? Add your comments here in the "I am getting discouraged..." forum thread. Rate My Site: Opinions Wanted Many of our forum members have their own Web site and often join the "Rate My Site" section to ask other members to view their site and provide useful feedback or comment on problems and their experiences. Recently, forum member johnaspey asked other members to provide some constructive criticism to help improve his online business. While most agree the site itself is professional-looking, forum member and administrator JPnyc suggests that the actual side code is antiquated. Super Moderator roban spots some spelling mistakes while forum member katwright feels that the homepage title could be a little shorter and catchier. JEccles says, "Very nice. Very professional look. We are also using Volusion. Did you have some design help from them or use a template?" johnaspey responds with, "I do use Volusion yes and it's superb. The design I created myself, and I've just tried to blend it in with the cart." After viewing the site I too couldn't resist commenting on the lack of currency conversion and typos as well. vbeal adds, "It looks good but I would suggest going over the information pages under 'useful Links' with a fine-tooth comb. Bad grammar, run on sentences and sentences with no periods at the end make a sight look and seem unprofessional. Some things, like the first sentence of your returns page, just don't belong there (why even suggest the possibility you might stock less than perfect items?). There are many things to tweak in those pages. The blog is an excellent feature but the empty links page should go."
