NameBays.com - please review :)

JakeA · 06-06-2005, 01:48 AM

Hi,

I've been quite busy working with NameBays lately. I've added new graphics, changed existing graphics, tidied up the layout, re-coded many of the URLs to make them search-engine friendly... but I'm sure there are some small things that could still be improved upon.

The site's address is namebays.com

I would appreciate some advice and feedback from fellow NamePros members.

Regards,
Jake.

I like this domain name alot!

If I were you I would put a forum on it.

I would put a forum on it but I just realized about the trademark issues with namepros.com

JakeA · 06-06-2005, 02:23 AM

As far as I can tell, NamePros is not a trademark (I did a search at the US Patent & Trademark Office)

I don't believe a forum would really be all that successful - Sitepoint & NamePros do a fine job as webmaster communities.

Thanks though for your feedback

fts · 06-06-2005, 02:26 AM

Would you take $75.00 for the domain name. No content.

JakeA · 06-06-2005, 02:43 AM

Sorry, I'm not interested, and please, this is a review thread not a sales thread

StudioWorks · 06-06-2005, 07:26 AM

Hello,

You did a good job - it looks great BUT the google ads on your header really hurts the overall image of the site.

Porte · 06-06-2005, 08:43 AM

Great site, I love this a lot. And I have to agree about the GoogleAds thing. Good Luck!

Ber|Art · 06-06-2005, 08:48 AM

Looks good to me

Killmur · 06-06-2005, 10:26 AM

Nice layout and everything. I read some of your auction description last nite and I love the whole idea you got going with this site.

GJ · 06-06-2005, 11:43 AM

I like it, it is very funky with the green texture. It works.

JakeA · 06-06-2005, 03:08 PM

Thanks everyone for your feedback.

I agree that the Google ad isn't the prettiest thing - I've tried to make its color scheme subtle. But unfortunately, web sites don't seem to have any worth without revenue.

I'll see if there is another effective place that I can put the banner. Any suggestions?

StudioWorks · 06-06-2005, 03:14 PM

Hey,

Let us know if you make any changes

JakeA · 06-06-2005, 03:21 PM

First change - I've moved the Google ad. It is no longer displayed on every page, only the front page. What do you think?

StudioWorks · 06-06-2005, 06:08 PM

Hey,

Looks good but you should could center it. Doesn't look so good there in the left.

Bill · 06-06-2005, 09:05 PM

Nice site, maybe you can ad more things. A forum would keep the site active!

sufi · 06-06-2005, 09:43 PM

Looks good but the header looks somewhat boring to me.

ornithopter · 06-07-2005, 02:36 PM

definitely a great concept and execution, only by the name i thought it would be an auction site, and it appears that it's not

JakeA · 06-07-2005, 02:53 PM

Thanks all for your feedback
