Hello,

Please review my site; www.bmgperformance.com. Its not completely finished but its almost there. Some of the navigation is not working right now, they are striked through. I have a drop-down menu system that is already coded but there is no use for it yet. This site was hand coded, every line was typed by me in notepad and not some program. As of right now, the website is made for Internet Explorer. An early verison of the site, custom made for other browsers, will be shown for non Internet Explorer users.

Thanks

I cant really say to much as you have not finished it, I can however point out that you have not got any <meta> tags of any king you need these tags to enable search engines properly search and index your website. I recommend that you insert them before your site is finished.

Thanks for your reply,

You must of been the only one with a browser other than Internet Explorer, who visited my site. Everyone else has used IE. I use browser detection javascript on my main page that directs you to a different folder with a custom made website for other browsers. For some reason, images got deleted or switched around in their folder, and a CSS File was switched, making the other browser site look like crap. I should of checked this sooner, so this was my fault. As for the META tags, everyone has to visit my main page, which contains to proper meta tags. This is the page that gets indexed by search engines. I figured I didn't need them on the other site.

lol, I,m a suker for Firefox. As for your meta tags you need then on every page this in effect lets spiders index each page and then rank it on its relevant information. Without the proper tagging your site will index assuming you have the tag below:

<meta name="Robots" content="index,follow" />

But without it on every page or site linked the content will be regarded as useless and non related.

I would have to say the quality of your images lets the site down. Your selling performance. Performance equals quality. Imagine if you wanted to buy some replacement windows. You go to the glaziers, only to see that the windows in his workshop are cracked.
When users see a picture of a bike, they've got to see sparkly, they've got to want one.
I understand the problem, I had the same trouble trying to design the logo for myverdict.net. I can't help with the solution, I'm not expert enough on image programs. I suggest focusing for a day or two on learning how to get one image right. Having accomplished one the rest will take minutes.

Thanks for your reply Taffd,

Yes, the quality of the images does let my site down. I have know this for a while. I had to turn them from high quality jpeg images with backgrounds into .gif images with transparent backgrounds to make them look better on the site. Somehow along the way, the quality of the images went down. I have been trying for weeks now with different software, but I finally gave up. I just have one question for you: How did you access my site? I recieve an email with information about the user visting my site such as their ip address, the referrer, browser name and info, screen resolution, and the time is was sent. I didn't recieve one when you got on, but my hit counter shows it. I am just checking to make sure there is nothing wrong with my php script.

Thanks,

Getting that info by email is going to be a hassle if you get lots of visitors. Anyway, I used the link in the question, from this site.

Use some padding (some elements are too close to the page margins), don't use times new roman as font at all and look some more on those images .. some are pixelated.

The navigation is giving me difficult in Firefox. The popups in the navigation aren't working correclty.

Thank you for your reply, some of the buttons on the menu don't have any information that go to them them now, so they are striked through. The ATV,NITROUS,LINKS, and ABOUT US buttons are not working. I am still working on them. The drop down menus don't work when they are striked thought. I have no idea why it does that, but it happens in every browser.

thanks
