Please Review my New Site

Hey...I just got my website up and running. Its not finished yet, I still have lots of products to add, but I thought you could check it out anyways and tell me what you think. I know it is a very generic template...maybe one day we'll have the funds to upgrade....Thanks -Katie www.blackheartinc.com

Hmm I see you don't have many products on your site yet. (like you said) The pink is a nice touch but it seems off centered. This is just my opinion but it would look better if the background was shown on the other side as well. other than that looks pretty good.

Thanks for the input. The pink is actually centered, its the Logo at the top that is not. Because its a template, we cannot get rid of the Black Heart Inc. on the left hand side, so it kinda throws our whole logo off to the right, and out of center. There are still a few more products I need to add, but everything listed is stuff we have in stock at the store. We don't have any wholesalers that dropship, so we are limited to how much product we can have on the site (mostly b/c we don't have the space or the finances to go all out and order a ton of stuff, we just have enough to fill our store).

How many purchases have you received online? The fact is, people can go and buy the same thing from any other established company. What makes you better than them?

I'm sure it would be easy to find a template that looks way better than that. Have you tried templatemonster or something like that? What ecommerce store are you using and how much are you paying? There might be better ways.

I wish you the best of luck. Check out t-shirtforums.com for a wealth of information along the lines of your business. It is the best resource that I have ever found for my business.

Whomever you've got working on the site should reconsider the layout and template choice. You can use those colors in a much more effective manner. That site pops way too much and may send some people into seizures j/k. I like the concept - but using a better interface would accomodate people a little better and I can PROMISE it will increase sales.

Joomla, Drupal, and many more Content Management Systems can do a better job at portraying your site, while still having ecommerce functionality.

Hey Katie! Just went to your site, overall it's not that bad, the only thing to be fixed is the header which is needed to be trimmed and centered. Using CMS could be a great help, it improves the visual output of your site.

Agreed- having a different template would really help you out and I imagine you could find some good free ones that keep the slightly edgy feel but make it easier to navigate. Also, you might consider switching the pink and the black. Having the pink (the bight color) be where your content is right now simply highlights how little content you have. The eye is drawn to the pink area, but there's nothing there.

Good luck!
