Hello All,

I would appreciate it a great deal if you would professionally critique my new companies website. It`s not great, but it has taken a LONG time to get to where we currently are with the business. Please do not hold anything back, and ALL of your opinions and suggestions are GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

Nice looking site!

From a legal perspective, I would STRONGLY recommend adding comprehensive terms of use and a privacy policy to your site.  The terms of use will not only afford you protection with respect to what users can, and cannot do on your site, but can also significantly beef up your disclaimer regarding customers` use of your products.

The Legal Considerations of Starting an Online Business

Get rid of the second logo on the main page; it serves no purpose, crowds your content to the right, and makes everything look off balance.

The bottom of your testimonials page has a medical disclaimer; you need to make this more prominent.

I agree about that second Logo. Why make readers scroll down so far to see your offering when you can remove the logo and center all of your text? This would pull eveyrthing up about a third of the page, making it more reader-friendly.

Dittos on the second logo. I`d shrink the top logo, then align the navigation tabs to the logo and move the whold page up. The empty space where the second logo used to be, then could be used to display your product picture, which currently are below the scroll line.

You`re not in business to display words, you`re in business to sell products.

Your use of bolding makes no sense. Other than emphasis, most search engines give a little extra weight to bolded text. To that end, whatever you bold should at *least* associate directly with your primary key phrases and search terms.

I really like the color scheme on the site. It loads quickly, and looks very cool. I looked quickly at your FAQ, and would recommend an "About" tab or page, where you explain magnetic therapy in general. It`s currently your first "question" in the FAQ, but I think you`d get more SEO benefit having it on its own page.

Hi there! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to take a look at your website and help critique! It is quite a nice site. Yet I did catch a few things! I hope my suggestions help you out! Besides the second logo (which I wont dare mention again because you had enough commentary on that) there is an inconsistancy with your navigation bar. Two of your options don`t turn black permantely when selected compared to the rest. Like magnetic therapy kits and faq. Consistancy should always be the key on any website even with minor details such as that.

This link on Faqs doesn`t anchor at all to the question:
Why are supplements included in my magnetic therapy health kit?

Some of the anchors cut off the question, which may not be too important, but I usually would make sure that doenst occur on longer answers. I do like the colorization of the top header, it is quite nice.

The layout of your products could be much better as well, it seems a lot of slapping in text has been done to conserve time. Which may be ok for now, but in the future, maybe organizing the space a little better might help. I would even go as far as say your featured products would have been best put right where that second logo was. There is a lot of empty wasted space on the site that could be put to such better use. Its definitely clean cut though, I have to give it that.

Beautiful design, but poor formatting and layout of text. Thank you for sharing your site. I wish you a lot of luck!

A few quick thoughts on the website:

• nice header visuals and logo.
• content within content area, a little stodgy in layout/look - doesn`t seem to match the site`s header, visual beginnings
• why don`t you use paragraphs (instead of 2 BR`s?) curious
• don`t underline text for emphasis - one thinks they are links (even one word `NOT`)
• SEO: ditto on missing description tag (why do folks always go for the keywords tag, which is useless, but ignore the description tag, which is used in SE results page?)
• SEO: a huge boost for topical content - break that FAQs up! give each FAQ its own page, title, description, H1 etc. Turning that into a database driven section will automate all the linking and table of faqs stuff - a quick bit of php/mysql.
• product content - that soft green box is just the wrong color - does not match theme at all.

That`s it - my 2 minute review is done.
