you have the w3 validator button, and your site doesnt validate... your domain name made me think your site was italian? im wondering if this might be an issue as potential clients may think the same and skip your site? the links to w3schools are a bit of a strange thing to have on your site, and why do you have them 3 times??

 

your site is pretty easy to understand. the links at the top tho, they are blue and when you hover are grey but not entirely grey because they still have a blue line at the bottom and it looks messy.

 

I am not a copywritting expert, i have some knowledge but zero skill. anyway, your content should follow AIDA, and tell your customer what you can do for them, how it will benifit them and why they need it with zero jargon.

Hi thank you for your reply. I have changed the bottom 3 links now. The site used to validate but now it doesnt becuase of the contact form.

 

I could do with some help to sort the 5 errors on that form not sure how to sort them at the moment. The navigation isnt finished yet.

 

Thank you

What do you meen about the copy writing part and AIDA??

Thank you

AIDA

 

Attention - Grab the viewers attention, make them go oooooo..

Interest - draw them closer make them think this is a good idea

Desire - make them think they need it

Action - convert it into an enquiry.

 

by copy i mean the copywriting, NO not who owns the rights.. i mean this basicaly all of the words on your site

What do you meen about the copy writing part and AIDA??

Thank you

AIDA is an acronym meaning "Attention, Interest, Desire & Action" - it's a mindset mainly promoted by sales letter writers but is a handy thing to have in your head for when writing your website's copy (text) and for the design itself.

It's what's missing from the design and definitely from the copy - some life. There's nothing too much wrong with anything but it doesn't stand-out or make me want to buy - it's passive and plain.

If it was me I'd spice up the copy - make it interesting and come up with more evocative ways of describing the company and it's services and then use that as a springboard for the design. Weird I know but that's the way I roll - let the content dictate the design - it's easier and leads to better results.

Like I say nothing wrong with the design at all but it doesn't grab visitors and pull them into becoming customers.

 

[Edit: Rats - made myself a coffee halfway through writing this and got beaten to the punch! Dam my caffeine addiction! ]
