    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have revamped my website and want to get some feedback. It is always helpful to have other outlooks. I know there is text missing as well as pictures etc. I am just wanting some suggestions on the layout in general. Thank you for looking in advanced. I hope you like it.

I like the site, but do you build cages? Or is it just for "this is what I have, use it or not"
And that portion also seems to be in German... I think...
 
Thank you for your input! I used to build cages and sold a bunch for a long time. Now I just build for myself and I found a lot of pictures of other builds so I decided to post them all there. I haven't finished the context yet and it is in Latin. I am hoping to be doing the finish out on that as well. I am glad you liked it. Was it easy to navigate? That is most important to me.

Click to expand...

Ah Latin, yes I was close with my guess of German :eek:
But either way, yes, your site was very user friendly! I really liked how you separated your python species instead of just jumbling them together. The shipping quote option is very obvious, and the site overall seems to be very good. All your contact info is easily seen on every page so I give your site two :thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
No problem, make sure to update this post when your done with the site, would love to see the final product!
 
Ahhhhh Darkroom lol.

If your main concern is navigability, I would increase the font size of the menu to something larger... right now, it's dwarfed by even the email/phone text and doesn't really draw the user's eye.

I guess one of the main questions I'd have is: do you want to be perceived as a business, or as a hobbyist who sells a few things?
 
My main concern is to be able to navigate. Most websites you get lost in them and it drives users away. I am hobbyist at th moment but you never know where it could go. I'd like to be able to grow as well. Thank you for your input on the navigation it is very helpful ill keep that in mind when I site back down to do the finish out.
 
Its almost there. I just need to find the time to take some pictures lol. The hardest part this far. I took some of yalls suggestions and I think it has greatly improved my site. THanks for the help an updated version is coming soon.
 
Thank you! I just need to find the time to take some pictures I hope I can do it tonight and get this wrapped up tomorrow and finally be able to put the word out. Thanks for the input.
 
ok getting very close now. I had some guys breeding so I couldnt get all my breeders but other then that its about there. If you find any bugs browsing please let me know, I am still trying to get the kinks out. thanks again for looking.
 
Looking great! I went through it a little more extensively and found very few grammatical errors. All the videos worked except for the one on the home page to the left of the Facility Tour banner.( but I'm using my phone so that could be the reason) All the pics were good, but the available page was missing the pics but I don't know if you have even put those up yet. So all and all it's a really good site and really informational for any beginners
 
that is awesome thank you very much. I still have some pics to take but a lot less now. I also have my gf go through and read the copy. Shes an english major i leave that stuff to here lol!. Thank you, you have been very helpful. I appreciate it all.

i am trying to build it out to help provide as much information as possible and be easy to navigate.
