evaske - Unique Hosting Layout

[[Oli]]

Its very nice, but I think the header is that bit too big...

Im not so keen on the rollover to find info-idea. People like straight to the point things,
Its cool at first but gets rather annoying if you have to keep hovering over them to find info.
(also think like if people want to copy the package info etc, they need to be able to select the content, and its kind of annoying if they move their mouse and the content goes away)

Again overall nice just a litle unhandy in my opnion, not that user-friendly.

Also, are there still some bugs in Safari ? (mac) ?

@Oli:

Why would people be copying the package information? And this is only the front page. There will be more implemented when the coding is fixed.

Hosting layouts are about being straight to the point and very user friendly, I'm not saying this layout is bad in actual fact it’s pretty damn good but for me it just isn’t a hosting layout, when I open it up I don't know what I should be looking at I don't have a clue what the site is about, and they are the things you should be defiantly trying to do when you design at hosting layout.

Overall I think it’s a good layout but not a good hosting layout.

I love the layout, it looks amazing but I agree with RedTom. I think it doesn't attract enough attention to the packages which is after all what they are selling. It looks really nice though.

People sometimes like to copy package information/details from different hosting companies and put them in example ms Word and print them out to compare, trust me it happends.

Im just saying a hosting design should be straight to the point, all those things like fading in and out etc are nice, but do not suit for hosting designs.

And as I've just said, there will be other pages with information on.. This is just the main page

Ah, but people like to see the details straight away. A simple, small, layout. "Straight to the point", this isn't. It's a very nice design, but as previously stated doesn't do the job of a hosting template.

The differences with browsers are being dealt with. I don't see how it isn't straight to the point? You have a few little bits of information in the top right for general ideas about the company and then a huge amount of emphasis is on the packages... This main page servers the purpose of someone being able to see straight away what this company offers and quickly have a glance at them side by side without navigating through pages and pages. If they want to look at the packages with more detail then they only have to click and the next set of more advanced details will come up in another page?

I do not see how it isn't straight to the point? Packages are shoved right infront of you and if you come to this website it is because you are looking for hosting. You don't just stumble accross a hosting website unless you are wanting it. Plus you have "hosting services" all over the top half as well as all the smaller tabs of information in the banner on the right.

I love the layout, it looks amazing but I agree with RedTom. I think it doesn't attract enough attention to the packages which is after all what they are selling. It looks really nice though.

The packages take up half the height of the entire page. Big, bold, contrasting. Stands out...


Thanks for the feedback guys, Might sound like i'm playing it down a lot but I dont believe it is as bad as you think for usability. I think you are looking at it thinking "Maybe if I didnt know what the site was about then I would be quite confused" but as I've said, it's not the kind of site you just come accross without knowing what it's going to be about. Once again thanks for the critisicms and compliments. Will remember them all in the future and try to adapt.

how abouyt getting rid of the top right content and minimising the height of the top container. Then moving the packages up and then putting the content underneath. that would be a better way of doing it i think
