I went as far as opening it....I'm new to web design, but me personally, would want it to be the size of my browser, i enlarged the pop-up window and the page stayed the same size.

And i can't read any other language then English, so i didn't dive in....sry for my 'uselss' comment.

Ok maybe this comment will help you more...

The good things....

Good Graphics
Easy Navigation (Download available without having to fill out a mile long form is very good)
Loaded Fast on the T5
The Page is easy to figure out what you are trying to sell or offer

Not so good things.......
On 1024X768 the page is positioned to the left and to the top and a rather lager BRIGHT White border surounds it.... The fact that it doesnt fit the page at that resolution can be delt with but i must say it would be better if it did take up the entire page...IMO

But the main problem i have with it is that BRIGHT white border...I would sugest to change it to a not so blinding color maybe even a dark blue or such....

Just to let you know that i was imediatly drawn to the lower left area where you talk about

AgentWebRanking?
This is not a bad thing...I just thought you would like to know where the focal point of your page was...Just in case this is not where you intended it to be...


Oh and on the right in the little box where it say click here to know more i would sugest to make it so that you could click anywhere in that box to be taken to its destination and not just on the text...

Hope this helps ya... Overall its a nice looking site and serves a purpose

Very fast to load (56.6K Modem - yes, they still have those)

Everything else is said by the previous two posts. Simple, and well laid out, the border is kind of annoying, have to admit (at least on the main page). The rest, not so bad, because I didn't have to see the white on the bottom.

I liked the clean appearance and the clear navigation.

There's a lot of horizontal breaks in the layout, particularly with the broad white band right under the navigation bar with the download graphic in it. It breaks up the flow when you read the site. You may want to consider moving the information about the product higher up and the download, find out more placed beside or below it.

Unlike Squintz, my eye was drawn to the right, following the horizontals rather than down, so the grey Agent Webranking, click here... caught my attention first. The white boarder is a little distracting. You could try making white the dominant colour in the page itself as an option.

Cheers

Cam

Ps I did download the software

Maybe that was the idea (not saying that is the case). Just out of curiosity, agentwebranking, are you going to respond to any of the replies in either of the 2 threads you started? Just wondered if you were able to find your way back . I suppose that's a dumb question....your site logs should have this board as the referring URL for quite a few hits.

On topic with the site review, in your initial post you stated:

Could you please review our new design? Are you all in agreement on your current design? What do your apparent partners think of the feedback provided here?

Hi boxer_1,

I am following what codingforums users are suggesting and I will pass the remarks to our web-designer. The site was redesigned few weeks ago and I wanted to hear from "different eyes"

I also plan to add a discussion forum about our software to our site. Because there is not a 30 days trial to test remotely hosted forums, I asked codingforum users what forum they are currently using.

If codingforums users also find our software usefull, :=) . Remark, I have added my sig to my posting as I always do. If it is a problem let me know and I will remove it.

Good afternnon from France.

Fabien
