Hi
Was wondering if someone can give me an opinion of what you think about the site that I have designed... I am aware of some of the product links don' t work but i am working on it.
Would you buy from us Why and why not.
Thank you for your time.

Can I be honest? As a first time visitor to your site, no I wouldn' t. Why? Because you don' t carry cartridges for my printer model, the Canon s900, which has been on the market for about a year and I needed the cartridges yesterday...if you know what I mean. What would make me buy cartridges from you, had they been available, is the nice discount you' re offering.

As to your website, I would offer these suggestions:

General copy throughout your site is centered. In my opinion, centering copy for titles and captions works fine, but not for the main body of text. It is particularly distracting on your " About us" page.

On a few pages where you have bulleted lists, some lines are double spaced, others are single spaced. I' d make them consistent.

The Thermal Fax Cartridges page appears to be wider than all the others

Because you have, out of necessity, a lot of links on many pages, consider boldfacing the sidebar links so they stand out better. However, if you do, I' d change them to eight point verdana which is an easy to read font at that size. I' d like to see spaces between each sidebar link, though I understand you probably want them to all to appear in the browser window without scrolling.

Finally, I find the font size of some of the titles a bit too large.

You know what would be GREAT for your website? To have a little text box where people can enter in the model number of their printer and it would come up with the appropriate ink cartridge. If you had this, I think sales would jump dramatically. It would eliminate sooo many steps.

you beat me to it. Thats exactly what i would look for. stick a search box on the front page thats search printers rather than model no.s of cartridges.

Also, people don' t like " New" newsletters. If you want people to sign up on mass reword it - people sign up for established newsletters that have real value (just a thought).

Everything else I like - do you ship international?
