Hi Ollie,
First the good. I really like a lot of the advice and stories on the site. Keep up the good work!
On to the bad.
I agree with Steve on the need for a mobile version of the site.
As for the Community, I'm not sure what software you use for your forums (sorry, groups) but it's weird! Having to create an account and then "join" every group in your forum is a real pain. Also why is it that the most recent comment appears at the top and not the bottom like it does it most forums?
Seriously, have a click around a forum like Whirlpool ( http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/ ) and then click around here and you'll see what I mean!
My advice is to take a look (or get your I.T. guys to have a look) at phpBB or vBulletin and junk whatever it is you're running here!
Hi Leigh,
What's your elevator pitch? Elevator pitches also apply to websites. Reason I say that is that when I looked at your site. I had to scroll down a bit to get a better idea of what your site & business was about. The top part of your website is the prime real estate. Just like how companies fight to be ranked number one on Google, you should be treating the top of your website the same and putting your elevator pitch there. Bounce rates on websites are high, if people can't find what they're looking for, they leave and leave quickly. I see you have linked to us in a rotating banner position however it is the first link looking at the website from the top down and it clicks off your site. I think it would be good for you to look at your homepage "above the fold" as we call it, the section of your homepage or webpage you can see without having to scroll.
Cheers,
Campbell
