nutbuster Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I have had several opinions good and bad on both of these...which one would draw and get customers to order? Suggestions? Fun how each opinion differed on how much actual experience of web publishing each person actually had.Thanks,DougBenefit Rich:http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt266/doug_k48/kct1.jpgTone down:http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt266/doug_k48/kct2.jpgCompromise from the two above: (No bold or underline or $ signs)Benefit Rich, but soften down:http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt266/doug_k48/kct3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amvx Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 You might want to minimize the length of your copy on your home page and save the in-depth descriptions for an about page, or product drill down pages.In my experience, too much copy, depending on the nature of your products, can discourage people from spending much time on your site, or even making a purchase.

Katmatcreations Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Id go for a option 3 and put everything you want to say in to an image or a sequence of images and link to another page with written content, people wont read lots of text unless they are interested in the product/brand already and if they are that interested they will go to another page to find what they need. Home pages are like front windows and should only be used mostly for visual or link off content, just remember a home page is prime real estate!

radders Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 They all looked the same to me. Unfocused, rather random, a lot of people yelling different messages but I suppose if you are looking for a medina without the smells then it does the trick :-) About the home page it depends whether you are designing it for humans or search engine and don't forget that most people coming from a search engine may not even see your home page.
