Hello,

I recently started this new fashion jewelry website and I really want to attract as many people to it as possible. I know some may be suspicious of on-line shopping but I want to make sure it looks professional enough and trustworthy for people to use. Suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

looks good but the prices are bigger - looks strange.
And the flower on the top doesn't look good.

But overall it looks good

Overall - nice site. Very simple and eye pleasing. Easy to navigate and find items. On the other hand - I do agree with formula - the flower does look a bit strange with the necklace hanging on it.

You said that you really wanted to make this site look professional and trustworthy. Therefore, I think that in the section "About Us" - you should probably state your mission and objective right off the bat. Within the first few sentences, the reader should feel that they can trust you. I think that the sentence starting with "We know the hassle . . " should come next. This explains why they should buy from you. Then the other paragraphs show that you understand where they are coming from, what you offer and that you know your business.

Also, in order to look professional - grammar and punctuation is very important. I noticed that in the last paragraph - you used the workd "weather" when you should have used "whether".

Hope this input helps. Good luck!

I like the header a lot it really looks great. Although I am not crazy about how the product images and product links are displayed, it just seems like it doesnt fit with the rest of the design.

Thank you all for your replies. They definitely help. We have just started and we know there will be some changes that need to take place but customer feedback and other people's opinions are very important to us right now to ensure that we stick to the right path.

Currency or language conversion?

The website doesn't look good with Firefox, there are quite big graphical problems with it. Perhaps this is because of the 11 errors and over 100 warnings HTML Tidy reports.

Why there is a box of currencies if the only option is USD? And why it's the only option? It would be nice to allow the prices to be converted automatically to e.g. euros.

There are a hovering effect on the left navigation bar but not on the top navigation bar, consider adding one to the top bar as well. Why the hover effect of the page links on the bottom is different from the hover effect of the left navigation bar? It doesn't seem logical and doesn't look too good.

If you want to sell also to outside U.S you should have the measurements also using the SI system (i.e. millimeters, centimeters and grams).

The orange buttons of the shopping cart don't fit very well to the overall color theme of the site, in my opinion.

Your website doesn't allow people to order without creating an account, that's very bad. I don't have to fill in any forms when I go to grocery shopping or if I buy jewelry from my local jewelry store, why should I have to register with your site?

The About Us page doesn't really say much anything about you. Who are you, are you a company? If so, what is your registered name? Are you a member of any organizations? Where are you located at? Do you have a phone number? A street address? How about the names and some photos of your staff?

Your product pages doesn't say anything about shipping fees or delivery time. Why not put the information right there? "Order now and have this ring delivered to you by next tuesday!" or something similar.
