Website feedback
Discussion
If you got a couple of minutes, could you please give me your thoughts on the current version of www.turatello.co.uk
I had the website on for a couple of months on and to be honest not much came in through the website. Somebody actually said they can't see the contents at all, it shows blank white. I did try it on a few computers and it was ok, taking a few seconds to load initially but getting there in the end.
Curious what others think on layout and contents. Thanks in advance!

Immediate thoughts were that it looked quite amateur, then I noticed it had been built using Wix...
Honestly, if you can't afford to have a web designer create a custom design for you, then take advantage of the professionally designed templates out there. Use Wordpress (hosted or self-hosted), or a decent point and click website builder like SquareSpace or SiteJam.
All in all, without going into too much detail, the website is OKish, not really bad, just not very good. Plus it isn't responsive, which is a massive no-no for any new website.

I will agree with what the others have said, but I dont know what your budget is, perhaps this is what you can afford at the moment.
If its the case of making it work...
Lose the Italion flag, my first thought was you are in Italy!
Drop down menus do not work well for mobile devices, consider your design.

It looks very basic.
- The flag banner, doesn't do anything. That's the first thing you see (especially on a mobile device) and doesn't sell the product at all.
- Why do you have a pdf price list and not product pages? I wouldn't bother downloading that to find out how much anything costs.
- Your blog isn't updated very often, seems like the site isn't regularly updated.
- The layout and navigation is poor, again it doesn't inspire me to shop your website
- You don't have an address on your contact page
- Try to incorporate your youtube video's in product pages or embed one on your home page.
- Your shop only has 3 products
- If you click on some of your slideshow images they don't link to anything.
- Your add to cart button is white and only appears when you hover over it
- When you try to purchase online it informs me that you can't accept payments online, why bother with an online store?
It feels very amateur overall, if you're selling fifteen grand products I would expect to buy them from a professional looking outfit. There are numerous errors on the website and you can't purchase from it anyway. You do provide good product details and information which is a plus but why bother with that type of website if you can't sell?
You would be better off creating a look book or brochure style website which then encourages visits or telephone orders.

Struggling to understand the logic behind that website. It's obviously been put together by a layman, but selling high luxury products to what must be fairly well heeled individuals. We would probably charge £1k - £2k for a fully responsive brochure site of that scope (without ecommerce). No idea what the profit margins of the business are but you would have to think ONE new customer would pretty much cover the cost of such a site.
Also think it also safe to assume that some potential customers would be actively put off the products because of the website. Rightly or wrongly, people will associate an inferior website with an inferior product. No offence intended to the OP - just observations!

Quick thread resurrection. Following the previous feedback, we've now launched v2.0 of www.turatello.co.uk. In Wordpress this time.
Constructive feedback welcome!
