cant you get rid of the huge muscle- bound guy shots and put a pic up of a normal male athlete? its a bit off putting. Also i think the site looked a bit better after i clicked through to see the sections- the home page put me off a bit- perhsps put pics of your top selling products on your home page
Also it looked a bit too american for my liking. and you about us section very short on any details.

As he is selling amino acids and the like I think it is the bodybuilding comunity that he wishes to target. The problem is though that the website is dreadfully designed.
It doesnt display properly, the layout is broken, the colour of the text for the categories shown in the box in the centre of the page is too similar to the colour of the background that they are sitting on so you cant read them very easily.
I think you have made a good start but it need a lot of work.
Warm Regards,
Joe

Good luck as i know from exerience it is a very very competitive business and some of the big USA boys pay millions on promotion.
Product design seems to be the only way to make a niche in the market
Best of luck though

it really is a mishmash of fonts/colours/styles and javascript tbh i really dont know where to start.
is this a custom built site or a open source solution?
your coding is over the place so much i would seriously think about starting again, you will have a knightmare in the future trying to update or debug it.
also look at an open source solution if your budget is tight.
also are you seriously paying 4.99/ month for stats??

Website is made through ekmpowershop, with some custom additions. Why do you ask if we pay for stats? Thank you for your opinions, we will look into that.

lying outside your html class is a link to some js from www.ekmpinpoint.co.uk (http://www.ekmpinpoint.co.uk) they are stats collector charging £4.99 a month for stats something every half decent webhost will give for free.

Your web design is not so attractive, in my opinion.
If you want to increase sales, you can redesign it with professional help.
Maybe you can try some professional shopping cart software.:)

What are you trying to say with the logo? 'Our product eats holes in your body tissue'? Doesn't flex my 'ceps I'm afraid.
(That emboss function is usually best avoided when dealing with images. It's actually a trick function put in by the Designers' Mafia to make things look novice like.)

Thank you for your opinion, but we really dont see any problem with the logo. I think it clearly shows what business we are in, and logo never says more than companies nature. The outlook is what we choosen. And its not made by Designers Mafia:eek: but thanks anyway
