Definitely different hosting site

[Lauren Stephens]

ok, this site is aimed at women clientelle... which will be obvious

the site isnt finished, im still working out some design kinks so im just looking for critiques on the asthetics, not the code or content

http://pamperedhosting.com

(those of you who are also at wht may remember me and another poster getting into it about pampered hosting and i went out and registered the name kinda as a joke but have decided to develop it )

ps be gentle, im just learning fireworks!

:lol: the idea is kinda nice. It's too pink for me, but then again, I'm a guy

Good luck with it. You certainly know to choose a niche :D

Design

The design looks pretty good I would make the pink just a bit brighter but thats just me. I know you are still working on the site but make sure you don't forget to capatilize your name with the yellow pop up text. When you scroll over the signiture on the bottom you name is not capatilized. All in all its pretty good.

text is really hard to read.

Real girlish Mac design, no intend to be a sexist.

for $99 monthly, I hope you can provide some serious services.

for $99 monthly, I hope you can provide some serious services.

our local competition is charging $199 per month for less than half the features of our 99.00 a month plan.

199 month with a 250 set up fee!

pretty crazy isnt it?

 

[matrics]

damn... I gotta try and offer hosting for local people... lol, their prices are outrageous

 

[Lauren Stephens]

lol, i KNOW! can you believe that!

i couldnt believe it!

if you read what it comes with, its hardly anything!

they arent the only ones around here with outrageous prices!

 

[namewaiter]

is there such a thing as local hosting ... i mean outside of marketing who needs a 'local' host?

 

[Lauren Stephens]

oh absolutely, youd be surprised how many people want to actually walk in to your offices and see who they are dealing with.

they want to hear your commercials on the radio and see you on tv.

the want to keep their dollars in the same state/city/county...

 

[oblivious]

i dont know, maybe a little less pink?

lol, ya i know, i know...

its definitely geared towards women, but im starting to get visions of pepto bismol every time i look at that site!

I love the concept of specialized hosting for women. I know I'm not your target demographic, but all that pink is a little much for me. Would probably offset some of it by using a different background color in the content box (see attached).

Best of luck getting around in Fireworks!

Review

I think it looks great (so far), especially keeping in mind that this site is targeted at women. As a man, yeah the pink's too much but since I'm not your target audience, it really doesn't matter if the color makes me cringe heh..

I think the font is nice as well, real feminine.. and I didn't find it hard to read. As a designer myself, I thought the layout, while simple was effective.

The thing I would change however is the image you are using at the top left.. since the site is geared towards women, you might want to replace that dude with a lady.. :P

I dont like the cursive OR the pink. Probably cuz I'm a guy....

LOL. I'm just kidding. It's nice...but the graphics need to be toned down a bit, as it hurts my eyes. Keep it up.
