.tv Developed .tv

[donnied79]

Hi, I've developed one .tv domain of my portfolio.
It's Sunglasses.tv | Find your sunglasses in our shop: hundreds of models for both men and women
I know it's not related to video etc. but it's better than having it as a parked page as many of my .tv...
What do you guys think?
Thank you very much.

Very Clean.

Looks really good. It doesn't need to have video just because it is a .tv.

I thought that was the whole point (of the ".TV"); to have unique, "video-centric" content? :blink:

PS. "Sunglasses.TV" looks cool! :music:

Best,
Jeff

In my opinion, it is a good marketing strategy for verisign and .tv owners, but for developers, a good website with good content is all it takes. Give people something to remember your site and they will keep coming back. I mean how many websites do you go to because they are nice to look at or because they have cool graphics? How many youtubes does the internet need?

CONTENT, CONTENT, CONTENT....if you build it, they will come and keep coming.....and since google treats this like a gtld...you shouldn't have a problem.

Good luck and your site really does look good, nice and clean.

...and I thank you. sir, for keeping the ball rolling! Nice site and there is a strong liklihood that in due time will fare better than it's .com sibling, which looks a tad dusty and if it's for sale would overvalue the name because of it's overrated extension.

Site looks very good IMO.

Tech.tv you make a good point, where the tie to what is intuitive with tv is always good, sometime just having a great keyword that's not available in any extension is good.

Plus this could be a video site, people before purchasing might want to see how they fit and lay on the ear before purchasing. You could create a channel on Youtube and embed on your site. Get a woman and a man, maybe even a couple since faces and heads are shaped differently. You could do well. Best of luck.

Very well done eCommerce site, IMO.

The product link I clicked led to an Ebay store. I assume you run the store as well??

Sun glasses do relate to TV as virtually all famous people wear shades when out in public and the cameras are rolling. And, sunglasses play a cool iconic role in selling the character's role in print ads, tv programs and movies. Neo, wearing sunglasses, in the Matrix movie poster comes to mind.

Associating sunglass brands with famous people, via video clips and pics, would help drive page views and sales. Adding a video player would also open-up the possibility of running tv commercials from sun glass companies as well as Goog video (ad sense) ads.

Have a wonderful summer (sales season)!

Donnie,
Great Job!

I really like it a lot.
it is very nice to see a developed product .tv site and you have also established that we really don't need video content to cater to our .TV extension.

It is a very very clean and sleek looking website and I wish you the best with it, and could you do me a favor, As it takes off, and you get more visitors or affilliate commissions, would you minfd reporting whatever little steps the site progress had made?

I think that would be very beneficial to everyone here.

Excellent job Donnie!
Thx for sharing, and Best of luck to you! with Sunglasses.tv!
Vito.

How many youtubes does the internet need? ... CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT

I could counter with "How many ebays does the world need?"

My advice:

I would change the logo to make it memorable. People on NP seem to be willing to pad their portfolio for offers of only $20.

The google ads header is enormous.

I would rewrite the lone bit of actual content because it's not really written in good English (someone here may help)

And here is my NUMBER ONE SUGGESTION.

Make the links open a new window. You provide a link that replaces your site with ebay. Guess how many people will come back? Guess how many people will remember they were even there...
This is the single most important rule of website management - that and poor 404 pages.

ZERO ZIPPO NADA.

Still. Better than anything I've done. lol.
It's a nice start. :thumbs up:

Were you EPN cleared before that site, or did you use it for admission?

 

[snoop]

People honestly consider adsense and affiliate links to ebay as development? It's junk.

On "domainer" forums, yes. A wordpress storefront drops them to their knees and makes them chant in unison, as if the operator is some sort of god with supernatural skills. Still, though, if he throws his back into it, it can earn, so I wish him the best.

I'm guessing you were EPN cleared before. With their new admissions/quality criteria, I'm having a hard time believing they OK'd that. I've had friends who were denied entry after *actual* full scale, non templated development. Getting in with a WP type site these days is basically impossible.

I don't see why google would give this any love myself.

G hates zero-content affiliate driven development; to wit, the complete and absolute SERP destruction of BANS stores.

It will probably take a lot of work to get this north of Page 10 for any primary terms. Niche targeting is the way to go here, but yer gunna need content, then links, then more content, then more links with the right niche text in the anchors... Then more content. Then more links. Rinse, repeat, etc, etc, etc.

Affiliate links are not "content" and G agrees.

What a crock of Dong, man.

There is form and there is function.

Kinda like Jaco, your new username. Great function... as one of the best bass players ever. Very bad form, rude and obnoxious... which eventually got him beat to death -by a musclehead bouncer no less. But I digress.

Bottomline, as an ecommerce site it functions well and design-wise its a lot like the "G" shopping page for sunglasses:
sunglasses - Google Product Search

(BTW, you guys talk about 'G' as if it stands for God).

ps. great to see a pic of Jaco. Brought back memories of my jazz-fusion dj and musician management days.

...a great tip for all sites.Thanks for the heads up!

You can say it looks good to till the cows come home, but why would google want to rank well a site that just offers ebay affiliate links and adsense. The utility of the site is near zero. Why express nicities about development that is rubbish and will likely result in no or near no revenue? Who does that help?

(BTW, you guys talk about 'G' as if it stands for God).

How else does the owner of a site like that hope to make money other than via the slim chance of getting free google traffic?
