Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

Hello, I just recreated my home page. Once again it is just the index page and nothing else, so the link won`t work. I am looking for thoughts on colors, fonts, graphics, logo, and any thing else. I am a beginner, so please forgive me for any "beginner" mistakes I may have made. Thank for looking.

Sorry, I forgot the URL.

WAY better! Now be sure to leave some room for a couple of examples of sports cards, so people can instantly see what this site is about. Then you`ll want to have categories, particularly divided up into particular sports. I`m thinking another category for especially expensive "rare" cards.

But this, in my opinion, is definitely a much better direction you`re moving in. :-) I`d suggest the home page title should be more descriptive of your business, not the name of the business. Maybe something like, "Safe Tradz Sport Card Collectors." It`ll help with SEO, but also have a more obvious description when you`re found in a search engine.
 
Be sure to also come up with a solid 20-word description of your site and put that into the meta tag for descriptions. Tighten up the main intro, because it`s very good and says everything without too much reading:

Make each feature a link to your "features and benefits" page---"Services" maybe, and take the viewer to the specific description on that page of that feature.

Thanks  for the thoughts Craig. I did a little research and found that any site dealing sports cards contained two main colors: red and blue. So I that`s when I decided to recreate my entire look. About the business description, I think that would be good to list a few features. Also I will be adding card images to the site, maybe even an image across the top just to the right of the logo.

About categorizing cards, we will allow people to post cards they have for sale or trade, and then allow others to search for those cards. On our search page we have multiple options such as: above $50.00, below $50.00, rookies, etc.
