evaske - Unique Hosting Layout

[redtom]

What resolution are you running?

1280x1024

But that doesn't matter too much as everyone naturally scrolls down if the site a little bit. Roughly off the top of my head, the opackages section takes up about 450 px height and the banner section is 400px high. As much emphasis on 3 boxes as there is on half the layout.

You can probably see how I'm saying its not user friendly and how the packages dont stand out, the last time I checked 1024x768 is the most popular resolution size. (I'm running 1280x768 I know)

Also that screenshot is with out me having toolbars and tabs at the top of the browser.

Who in their right mind doesn't scroll the entire website before buying from them?

That's not the point..

[Kieran]

Of course it is...

If you browse the whole site and scroll down like you surely would then you'll see the packages...

Really what was the point in posting this if you're just going to knock what people say and defend the design when there trying to help you improve on your design?

You'll be amassing by the amount of people that don't scroll, you should check up on average webpage viewing, it isn't long at all if someone doesn't see something straight away then 50% of people will click the back button and go to the next link down on Google, that’s 50% of your possible sales gone.

not sure if it’s actually 50% of people but whatever it is your still losing sales.

You obviously want a design to look attractive but it definatly shouldn't compromise usability in any way atall which I feel this design does.

The compare bit works fine in IE6 , And it seems to work in IE 7(dont ask why i have IE6 Ok)

I like the layout, but it seems to complicated, what about people who have javascript disabled, or have an even older browser becuase its what they are used to , so it wont support it, but a great layout but not for hosting

You'd be surprised, a lot of people do that. Especially with hosting sites.

Log on, check package prices, go compare.

As I've said, hosting sites need to be small and easy accessible.

I love the design as I've said many-a-time, so don't get the impression I'm ******** it off. It just doesn't serve purpose for a hosting company.
