please review my site

[oldmark]

Hi,
I am new to this forum and a complete noob to internet marketing.
I have recently set up this site www.buildrobotbeetles.x10hosting.com
Would someone please review it for me and tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I AM NOT SPAMMING! this is a genuine request for some constructive criticism.

Thank you

You could center the white area. maybe add some pictures of more completed bettles. lol

 

[oldmark]

Thank you for your help. :biggrin:
I am working on getting some more pictures

there appears to be a big white gap at the bottom of the content page?

possibly split the website up in to smaller pages, you could have a page for pictures of the robots during the assembly process (like a gallery). a page explaining the payment process and its advantages. a page giving a little bit of background information about yourself and what you are hoping to acheive.

then think about making a nice shiney banner if you have any experience with graphics? and maybe a format to apply to your site

 

[oldmark]

wow. some really good tips.
thanks

nice page. why didn't you create a blog for that so it would be updated regularly.
andyou shoud have at least try to make the HOW TO BUILD RADIO CONTROLLED ROBOT BEETLES a link to that e-junkie page.

It looks a bit frontpage :/

You need more layers, more gradients.

The page was made with Kompozer and yeah it is a bit plain. I'm working on some better graphics to try and make it look a bit more professional.

If you think it will help then yeah I can make the title a link to the download.

I'll look into creating a blog to link to the page.

I really appreciate the helpful comments.
Thanks Everyone.:biggrin:

Good job, then only thing i would suggest is to is to center the page with the

<center> all your content </center>

This will make it look a bit more professional. JW,how many sales have you gotten?

best site
have a good time in your site

Using <center> is definitely not the way to go, as:
1. It is a depreciated function
2. It is designed for text centring, not centring the whole website.
A better option - although not necessarily the best - would be to wrap it all in a div and assign some margins:

<div style="width: 900px, margin: 0px auto">
//Your page contents
</div>

NO. Use:

<div style="text-align:center">
Blahblahblah
</div>

EDIT: Oops I didn't see lemon-trees post. I dunno what the difference between our codes are, but both work

 

[lemon-tree]

Depends whether he is trying to centre the actual text, or whether he is trying to centre the content. Your centres the text, whilst mine puts the content in a box and centres that. So depending on what he wants, either could be right. I couldn't load his site at the time so I wasn't entirely sure what he wanted, but it definitely shouldn't be <center>.
Now that it loads it does look a lot better than it did a few days back, great progress.

Hi Everyone,
I've rebuilt my site and tried to follow some of the suggestions given to me since i started this thread.
Done away with the "centred look" and added some more content.
No sales yet.

Thanks guys.
