Please provide critique opinions about the following site: http://datarecoveryedmonton.ca/
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
I know that domain does not match the site, its temporary there for testing purposes
I'am aware of sound issues in FireFox browser

Some sound clips will sound the same, that's because they are, I'm currently waiting for all proper recordings from guitar builder.
Thank you

1- Main logo should be click-able and lead to the main page.
2- Main page does not have a general description of what's being presented
3- Normally sub-topics on the main page should lead to other related pages (i.e. standard features, neck joint design etc.). It is recommended to move these topics to other internal web page
4- The main menu is not highlighted, so it is not clear what page you are on at a moment
5- Guitars page: The font size for the text on the right is too small

I personally don't like the number of different colors used on the home page, as we as the choice of colors. I think that the color combination doesn't go together.
I would also consider narrowing down the number of fonts used.
As it's been previously noted, the home page should have some sort of a description, that will give a visitor a brief idea about the nature of the business. e.g. "DKGuitars - High Quality Custom Handmade Guitars". There's something similar in the header of the site, but not on the actual page.

I agree with both of the above posts. The colours clash and are distracting, consider choosing complementing colours. I like the slideshow displaying guitars on the main page but I think there needs to also be a brief summary of what your company is offering clients (what you do). The "Standard features" and other 3 headings on the main page should be moved to a separate page, perhaps called "construction". On the "Guitars" page, the pictures of your product should be bigger. The page seems heavy on the left side, perhaps centre the pictures and move the text above the pictures, also make the font bigger. As mentioned above, the slideshow looks great on the main page but it takes up a lot of space on the other pages and makes visitors scroll down before they can see what they are looking for. Consider a smaller picture on these pages. Overall it is a good site and easy to navigate, theres just some stylistic things I would change.

Hi,
I like the pictures and how detailed they are. Your home is simple, to so busy or filled with ads. Your menu is quite functional and you go where you are supposed to.
I would make the text a bit bigger in the 'about us' section. Also, my very personal opinion, the colors. I would find more user-friendly colours.

Hello,
From the user's perspective:
1. The site is simple and attractive. Easy to navigate.
2. I loved guitars' images and enjoyed listening to the sounds.
3. I found the font size of the main text was too small for me to read.
4. Overall is very good!
From the designer/developer's perspective:
1. The Logo is not clickable.
2. Menu titles should match the header of the page. It would also be nice if the menu was highlighted to indicate what page you are on.
3. The image slider should have an option to pause/stop from the accessibility prospective.
4. HTML of the Home page doesn't validate. Other pages I didn't check.
5. I wouldn't recommend to structure html pages using tables, use instead.

The site looks good and simple. Here my feedback.
1- The logo would be better if it is clickable to the main page.
2- It will be better if you add son text (key words),or heading for each picture on the slideshow.
3- The main page would be better if contains some products( even new products)
4- It will be better if the menu bar is under the slideshow.
5- There is no information about shipping and returns.

When first landing on the site there is no indication of anything that is for sale. It is just information about guitars.
I added a guitar to the cart, but I couldn't find any information about shipping, insurance or returns.
The overall layout and design is nice, the font could be slightly bigger or at least a bit more linespacing. The about us page was a bit difficult read with the small font size.

I checked out your site as I'm an avid guitar player.
First of all the site itself is simple, clean and to the point. I found it easy to navigate your site and the flow was very nice.
The colour choice as most people have said doesn't really do it for me. I think a better colour palette is in order. I also found the text to be a little too small to read especially in the grey tone you used.
Other then that it's not a bad site at all.

I think you definitely need to make the text bigger, I'm not even 30 yet and it is hard on my eyes. I also think that the lines you are using, the orange fading into black, you can't really tell what it is, it just looks like an orange dot to me. Maybe have orange fade to white to have some separation with the background. White stuff on a dark background looks cool anyway. I also think you should have some kind of introduction on your homepage - it is important for search engines and for users who don't know much about guitars.
