I would like the front page to have more catch. Maybe have a place where you list the "What`s New" or "Newly Released Videos" and a place for "What people are watching", etc. Look at the front of YouTube and you`ll see why it is catchy and engaging.

Also ... if I scroll when the video is playing, it disappears for a moment. It`s very odd. So you might consider either a) bringing them up above the fold so I don`t have to scroll to see it, or b) having it not auto play so that I can scroll, and then hit play myself.

While I understand the potential $$ benefit of having Google Ads on a  web page. Personally, I do not like to see them in the middle of a web page`s content.

Regardless of your personal preference ... the fact is that in-context ads get better results than ones placed on the outside or bottom.

That being said ... if the business model is revenue through advertising, there are better ways to make money than Google AdSense. There are also ways of designing a page to be attractive yet advertising-effective at the same time.

I recognize that (better results), thank you.

I was expressing my reaction upon going to a website that includes ads (google or otherwise) in the content of the site. I discount the value of that site.

Perhaps other website viewers have the same reaction, perhaps not.

Excellent start :) One of the reasons why I say "start" is that until a business is "up and running"...the only thing you can`t do is rest.

I`m being picky but I look at web pages all day...silly grammar errors (the missing apostrophe and extra comma on the MAIN page) stick out like a flare gun :(

Another thing I noted was a lack of audio to your videos-- a narrator if you will :) That I leave up to you...just a thought.

Good Luck :)

How do I go about a website critique. I have just joined Start Up Nation and am not familiar with the site yet.
 
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Everyone:
 
I am new to the site and trying to jump right in to the swing of things. Anyone who would like to give some feedback on my website please do. I am looking to see what might be missing, I have gotten some feedback from friends and family but don`t know if it is actually meeting its mark, the consumer interested in buying jewelry or sunsafe clothing. I do not have prices listed as I sell to galleries wholesale and this would be confusing.
 
Let me know what you think.
 
 
Thanks.
 
Colleen
