I am not trying to spam, so if you feel that way please ignore (you can PM me too if you like).

What I would like is some comments on my website. What is right, what could be done better, etc. I don't have much inventory up yet, but I would like feedback if I can get it. Feel free to PM me with your comments, if you don't want to share them here.

    Okay, nice and easy to navigate.

    How would one get to your site in the first place?? No coin in the title or any

    Looks pretty good, but is kinda slow...The large pictures take forever to load.

    too many 'feel free', rewrite

    mostly known v. commonly known?

    'series in' vs. 'series is'

    produced vs. minted

    most beautiful minor coin vs. most beautiful major coin?

    that's just great, there are minor and major coins? image

    include names for all the denominations or lose all the names (Lincoln, Mercury, Washington), just say cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, halves, etc. BE CONSISTENT whatever you choose to use. More tabs is NOT always the answer.

    Looks good. Pictures loaded very fast for me. Easy to navigate and read. Agree that your name needs additional words for search's.

  • Personally I like it. Very clean easy to navigate. My only pet peeve is the coin images. When expanded to larger to get a better view they really don't get that much larger. I would need more detail but thats just because I'm picky image I really can't criticize though since my photo skills consist of sandwiching a coin in a computer scanner. But other than that I like it. Like others said though too you should add more detail to the title tag. Also, you could even insert a keyword field in the html code and submit it to search engines so they pick up on it to get you more traffic.

    "ARSave Collectibles & Gifts. Welcome. Thank you for visiting!

    ARSave Collectibles & Gifts. We appreciate your visit. Please feel free to browse our site and puchase any of our current offerings."

    Delete the redundant stuff I underlined. Fix the spelling of purchase.

    "We specialize in Winged Liberty Dimes. They are mostly known as Mercury Dimes in the hobby. These dimes are the most beautiful of all minor coins produced by the Mint."

    How about, "We specialize in Winged Liberty dimes, often called Mercury dimes. Many consider them among America's most beautiful coins."

    Not crazy about the neon green font under "site map". Tone it down with a color that fits the other nice, subdued ones. Two different shades of blue on the same page (elsewhere) isn't very attractive.

    SORRY...I didn't mean to sound so negative. Over all it is very nice and clean. It might become very busy with a large inventory. Spend some time thinking about how best to display them.

    Thanks for all the comments. I'm glad I asked. It looks like I have some more work to do. I am somewhat limited to what I can do with my web package, but I can certinally make corrections and changes based on the comments!
