Hello,

My name is Damian Bruno from Sydney, Australia. We recently launched our new online corporate website at http://www.shinemedia.com.au

Feedback would be appreciated regarding the site.

This seems more like a disguised ad than a review request. Why not be more specific as to what aspects you want reviewed.

The text is far too small for me - the pages load far too slowly by modem. You also worry me with a heading in an official appeal site of "Two de Force"!! "Tour de Force" rings bells for me.

Remember, requests for help really need specific info - this is too general.

While Flash is pretty in some cases, it doesn't do a thing for your site. Any graphics or flash should educate the viewer on what your site is all about and what it can do for them.

The SE's won't like your site, or rank it well either since, at this time, they don't index flash. How are they going to find the pages of your site when they can't follow the links?

Yes, make sure you tell us whats wrong with your site before we look at it. We wouldn't want to come to our own conclusions, would we?

Ah, Mr Guest (or is it Ms?). You hit the nail on the head. Many web managers are aware of site weaknesses and would indeed benefit from asking just that. "Please help me improve the following sections as I just can't get them right" type of thing. This indeed would certainly save a reviewer having to browse it all.

At last you're getting the hang of this.

Hello,

Sorry about not being more specific in regards to the website. It was recently put online and I was just after a general opinion about it.

Our main concern right now is the navigation bar and people finding it.

As for Search Engines we aren't looking for opitmization in that area.

Thank you for all the feedback, it has been helpful.

Thanks,
Damian Bruno
