the link doesn't work :( x
 
omg! haha how silly am i?! i didn't even notice that! even though i clicked on the link 3 times AND read the address more than 3times! haha :\ sorry! x
 
I think the site is really nice and informative. There are a lot of links down the left hand side, but i prefer this as you can click on exactly what your interested in. I was slightly confused on the manicure page as it says mini pedicure at the top, also i think you need to bold the prices as on some pages they are not very visible. Lastly, you need to capitalise the letter 'I' as you have it a lot on the homepage in lower case.
Other than that-great.

First thing I would say is, get someone who's good at spelling and grammar to sit down and go through it with you, there are lots of these type of errors, far too many to list.

You also need to have the same font - style and size - on all pages, otherwise it looks very messy.

On the nail art page, do you use Blinx or Minx? They are two different products.
 
i don't like it at all. i'm sorry, i don't want to offend you but i really don't. it doesn't look good at all. it's too much. it looks cheap and unprofessional.
if i was you i'd re do the whole thing. going over spelling and gramma as there is a good few spelling mistakes and som odd wording on the site. the writing isn't consistant either, it looks as if you have copied another site on certain topics eg. the tint section and the shellac section. if you want to quote the brand you are using then just use a quote - not the entire thing.

i'd lose all the tabs from the side - start again with maybe something along the lines of about me/spoilt and write about you, who you are, where you're based, what areas do you cover include if you are willing to travel outside of that area and if so what per mile you charge etc. what qualifications do you hold (you say you are professional, qualified etc etc but never state what it is you actually have, include a nice picture of you and keep it to 'me' or 'I' unless of course you work with other people then change accordingly. i'd loose the 'tips' section, it sounds patronising. maybe re word it and have something like a tip of the week section if you really want it in, though i don't think it's needed. people are coming to your site because they want a treatment, not a life coaching session - there are plenty other sites available for self help. have a tab for treatments - list all treatments and prices and a brief description (what the treatment consists of eg products used, time taken, what it's for etc etc). always talk stuff up! they are 'luxurious' products that 'revive' and leave you 'feeling fresh', they 'replenish' etc etc you get the point) about what they are etc and state if skin test is needed etc. have a make an appointment/contact me tab and maybe a gallery tab and testimonial tab. there's no need for a page full of headings. people want easy to navigate sites that are clear and straight to the point. they want to know what you offer, how much you charge and what's included in the treatment and how long it takes. it's as simple as that.

the pictures you have i'm not sure if they are stock photos or what you have actually done, if they are what you have done then have a gallery section to display them if they are stock then just stick to the one photo - there's no need for half a page of them.

i will be honest the only reason i know what 'babtac' and 'guild qualifications' are is because i've found out about them on my beauty journey - is a client going to know what the above are? are they really going to want to be searching on google for what 'babtac' means? i also don't like the ';o)' - it looks so unprofessional so try to avoid using it.

the shop section is a great idea, but you def need to have pictures up and not saying 'in stock tomorow' - if it's out of stock just say it's out of stock and maybe have something where a customer can receive an email when it's back in stock if they choose, otherwise a customer might return the next day and if you haven't updated for whatever reason then it doesn't reflect well on you, you seem unreliable and it can also give the impression that the site is old and not updated.

i think the 'cougar party' package sounds rude and disrespectful and i don't think you can carry it off. your site i think is trying to show your business is grown up and mature, classy not a young hip and happening business which could maybe pull a 'cougar party' off. so maybe think about re wording your package offers? why is a 'panther party' called a 'panther party'? i can 'get' the cougar thing because that's an older lady but i'm not sure what on earth a panther is apart from an animal? i think the 'cub' named package is a bit naff to be honest too, why not just stick with the ever popular princess/diva package or something along them lines? i think the stereotypical pink, glitter, drama filled spoilt image is far better than the image of a 'cub'.

make sure your name and logo match with the image you want to and display your name and logo proudly! :D

i'm sure if Ruth happens to stumble across this thread and she's got a bit of spare time to look over your site i'm sure she will be able to give you some fab tips! :D

Hey,

Firstly, i think its great that you offer so many different treatments and the individual pages for these are also great as it means you can go straight to the bit you want to read. However, after reading it all i had a bit of an information overload but that might be because i read the lot, if i were just looking for one thing like Spray tan i would only read that. I also agree with previous post that the Grammar and spelling needs to be addressed asap as this could give an unprofessional look to the site, i also think the font needs to match on all the pages and maybe only highlight the prices. I like the Shellac uv Varnish colour font and size!!

Other than that well done and good luck
 
hi this site has lots of potential but as mentioned too many spelling and grammar mistakes

I also dont like the ; ( thing, these symbols should be kept to texting.

I also found cougar party insulting and couldnt make head or tail of cub and panther parties.

whats a SPRATY TAN? sounds scary lol

whats hassles and bassles I thought it was hustle and bustle

lose the small i doesnt look too good at all

with a bit of tweeking this will come on leaps and bounds
 
thanx all. as i said my eyes went so boggled. i let it go live so i could post it on here but now i will un live it lol..... and have a fresh eyes look !! i know theres lots of mistakes but 7 hrs sat trying to add all my stuff was exhausting to say the least ! tips were great .. i havent the money to pay even £100. at the mo for a propper web page i did see ruth at nec.. that will all come when proffits start rolling in i hope.. ps. all the photos makeup nails etc are all my work apart from one makeup 1 if i remember... i did that look and am waiting for the photographer to mail me them... right best crack on with editing lol... anyone care to helpl lol xx

gosh no wonder it took you 7hours, there is absolutely loads on it! lol

good luck with re designing - now you've had a 1st run through and got some feedback i'm sure you'll know exactly what to include!

have a nosey through some other peoples sites to get some ideas, obviously don't copy just get a feel for what you as a user (who knows nothing about their business or treatments) find easy to use about their site and what colour combinations work well together and font types etc etc. :D

OK 3 HRS LATER :o:o:o see if i need to change ANYTHING LOL OHHH I NEED HELP HAHAHAHAH XX

I used 2 photos from a makeup site dinair have... but they have now been removed to stop confision lol... i have some fab ones on the way when the photographer e-mails them x thanx for your comments , much much needed.:o
 
would it be any help to you at all if i re wrote what you had written and pm'd it to you so you could add it to your site? not me write it, just go over the gramma (some words have extra spaces between, some have fullstops in the middle of sentances) or is that a really offensive rubbish idea? if so please ignore what i just said. i have a few hours to spare as my little ones are out with their grandfather and my partner is out too if you wanted me to help you now. x

I cant comment on spelling (dyslexic)
but I think your shellac tab says 3 week manicure its 14 days , and on the shellac page you really shuld enbed the shellac video :) so people can watch it insted of just read , it brings it to life if you know what I mean ?
hears mine : CND Shellac Nails Isle of Wight

I have not been through it all yet but I did notice on the home page the font / header to the left :Welcome To Spoilt makeup and Beauty
maybe make it look nicer ? if you want to keep it black do my maybe change the font? to make it look more like a welcome :)

did you do the site your self? if you did then well done ! its not easy ! and youve got a good start :)
 
just wanted to add i think your home page would look so much better if you had a logo where the word 'spoilt' is at the top of the page. i know you said getting together £100 for a proper site right now is just impossible but i know that some peopel offer logos for around £20 - i think it would add alot to your site and when you get your professional site made you can take the logo to that site too. it will help people to identify with you and your brand also. also, the font on the home page just doesn't look all that good at all.
