Re: Honest critique of my new website...
smyle1 Mar 20, 2009 9:55 AM (in response to securityfirst)Looking over your site the first thing i would say is it might be helpful to add some information about your company, the need for these products, statistical information about crime, etc. Jumping right to the page to buy things seems a bit abrupt, but I guess it also depends on peoples interest level.
Other than that, pretty easy to navigate....Hope this helps.....-

securityfirst Mar 20, 2009 10:29 AM (in response to smyle1)Thank you for that! I was actually thinking about adding a text box about the featured products for that purpose, but was not sure. So you have confirmed my thought, thank you. I will have that added!

Re: Honest critique of my new website...
LS2000 Mar 21, 2009 10:50 AM (in response to securityfirst)Hello-
I liked how fast your site loads and all of the product information is
easy to navigate. One of our services here at LucidStream is building
self-manageable e-commerce stores, so we are always interested in
viewing store layouts and functions.
The other poster is right about listing information about your company
and maybe some introductory copy about each product group. You might
even consider adding some history or trivia, mentioning how or why
certain products were invented or where they came from. Done right,
you'll entertain those who are already familiar (even if they send
email to correct you, that's still good so that you can build potential
customer contacts), and you'll inform those who are new to the
products.
Strongly consider adding a business phone number, even if it only goes to
voicemail for now, and if you can answer the phone, advertise live
customer support with contact hours and time-zone.
Are you going after a wholesale market? Is that why your store has a
log-in at the top of the site? If so, you might consider adding a note
on the front page or top banner that links to a wholesale application.
As you may know, the wholesale security supplies market is huge and can
be very profitable if you have the right marketing strategy and tactics
in place.
What are you doing to market the new site online and offline?
If you would like to speak further about adjusting your e-commerce
site, please contact me by phone toll-free at 888-508-0575 or visit us
online at http://www.lucidstream.com
In addition to our e-commerce, website development and video
production/streaming video services, we also offer very affordable
consulting services. I have marketing and security products industry
experience that you may find very helpful.
Good luck with the new e-commerce store - I look forward to hearing from you! -

gzuni51 Mar 21, 2009 11:16 AM (in response to securityfirst)The site looks fine,I would suggest that you find away to target specific customers by adding keywords that will be picked up by google and other search engines. I can recommend a company called "Orange Soda".They have helped my website go to the top listing in my business profile. The cost is very reasonable and they can establish you by region or nationally. Check them out at Orange Soda.com.
They can do a regional campaign for as low as $50.00 a month.No contracts and cancel anytime.
All that said, the idea now is to get your web site noticed by the search engines. That is imperative.
Good Luck

hostronica Dec 11, 2012 8:47 PM (in response to securityfirst)The first thing you have to do is to get a good hosting provider, because a site can't be down about 2 or more hours.
The second thing is a good content about good qualities and services of your company.
Best regards

What do you all think of my new website? www.securityfirstzone.com
This is my first attempt at starting an online business in order to get away from the corporate puppet strings. I think I have the easy part down. Now the hard part, getting customers to my site. I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas. Thanks in advance.
