2 months now out of the gate. Lots of changes and Im wondering what you all think thus far. Trying to get that look to inspire buyers is tough, and im wondering if you think I have done so. Just added an adult section. I did it so its 3 links deep, with a warnign page of sorts. i thought this to be a good idea, to maintain a seperate sections of sorts. Trying to keep away from the pron look, while still having things on site that would possibly be considered as such.

Anyways. Im looking for if you have the time.

1) Overall site appearence ( have i achieved that passion to wanna buy) or am i missing the mark?

2) Trying to get in the all so deep keywords as lingerie etc. Tough task indeed. Am i on the right track SEO wise, or am i missing the mark?

3) The adult section, lower link on left, goes to a warning page of upcoming material. Good idea? or too much over the top?

4) Any other suggestions you may have.

I thank you all in advance for any information you can deliver on this site. As said, its been live for 2 months now. Seeing allot of pages being added to engines ( domain wise ) not in individual phrases or keywords, except for brocade lingerie, but this isnt a popular term, so Ill assume that why I am seeing results on that phrase.

Sorry for any typos, ive been up all night and my typing skills are suffering.

Site is once again http://girlfriendslingerie.com

FYI- This is a Yahoo merchant site. Im using custom HTML on most pages, and surrounding it with store tags, which are generated at Yahoo end. Therefore, im dealing with allot of crap code etc. Ive dealt with this as best as I can. Using the catalog manager ordeal, has assisted me in time wise for adding products, yet also is a bit of a pain in the custom end. A validator code is rejected thru the site builder upload process. If added manualy to site on server end, it messes up the generated outcome of the builder. So from aside from that, i have reached the point of no return of sorts to begin again. Unless of course it is believed by you all that the code just plain sucks and an entire new site needs to be built.

Thank you all for your time.

Bless All

Hmm no opinions????


Anyways, I ask for I show around 6,000 unique hits since the site opened a bit more than 2 months ago. Ive had 1 order thus far and am quite concerned that outta 6,000 only 1 ordered. Am i too asume that outta that many pople that only 1 found any value to the growing product line, or is it that the site sucks, and doesnt propell anyone to buy anything. All I wqas lookign for was a lttle reassurance all is fine, or that this site does need help. Anyone have any ideas please let me know........

Had a quick browse, you should replace home link with the anchor text of one of your keywords.

On the pages you only see half of the buttons! (some users on certain resolutions may not see buttons hence why no sales)

If you need more help just let me know.

Thank you for the reply. I did originaly have the Home button showing index.html. Just changed it to show actual site name. How woudl I give home direct a anchor to show a keyword, yet have it point to home page (excuse me if i seem lost here) As for page width, I thought i set it up for 700 wide. Perhaps I have some table going wacky here throwing stuff off. Was this on all pages, or just 1. Browser perhaps also, I have a large monitor, so its tough for me to see unless i change resolutions.

Again thanks Dan for the review. Ive got a lot riding on this site, and I hope I am delivering the look, confidence and respect to allow purchases. By the way nice name Dan ( this from another Dan-hehe )

Bless

looks good to me XD

If you had 6000 unique visitors and only one ordered your conversion rate would be really low -- .017%. However, I'm guessing that you are counting "hits" instead of "unique visitors". This would throw the conversion rate off by an order of magnitude or two. Figuring the latter, a 1.7% conversion ratio would be pretty decent.

A couple things not related to SEO about the main page. I don't like that the text and hyperlinks are the same color and cannot be readily distiguished. If the cart software supports browse by brand, would recommend making the top brand names hyperlinks.

Good Luck !!

p.s. yes Datagg, Dan is a nice name ;)

Thank you Mike & gator. Im hearing that from a few otehrs that the color of text is indeed bad. I was tryign to go for that soft look, yet may be burying text that way. So you think the links within the text shoudl be a bolder color, to stand out?

Thanks again
