Some find it easier to navigate a website when the links are listed alphabetically ie; Aquariums, Aquarium Hardware. Those links

And your search engine could use some help
Some intuitive means for spelling errors/substitute suggestions
ya still a lot of errors to fix up

like i always like to say "english is my second language" lol

the funny thing is i can't speak my first one anymore

New site looks good. Maybe include a google map on the contact page. Grid vs List view does not work. Images on product pages don't always display properly (e.g., they zoom in too far that you can't see the product -- ATI fixtures). Meta tags needs to be setup properly for products (e.g., search for Bubble King and I get zeovit listings).

The site is still operating and fully browsable. Did you know this Dave? You need to disable the site through the CMS and not via DNS redirection.

Site looks good. Like the Layout. Couple things I found while I skimmed through:


The drop down menu when searching by manufacturer for protein skimmers says "bubble magnus". Remove the n

It appears that there is two different font colors in the product labels. See here:

I didn't mean your spelling errors
I meant customer spelling errors

If I type in the search box korralia ( with 2 Rs ), it returns with " Your search returns no results. "

I'm not a Web designer, so my lingo may be off ...

You need an intuitive search engine. I assume it would have to be populated with all kinds of suggestions to replace customers' mispelled product names

It's not fancy, but it's clean and uncluttered. Looks good.

Looks like there's a little post padding going on here...............BRAD!!!

Site looks great for a first run despite any errors, they will get fixed in time I don't doubt.

Still need to add a few products like the Waveline pumps but very happy to see your site up again.

normally I provide a document for edits, but this was on my lunch and I just posted as I found them. And let's face it, I don't need post pads, I talk enough already.
