Hey guys,
A friend of mine recently made this website for my small business(selling sport supplements) -> www.powerhouse.bg
I know it's in bulgarian but I just wanted to see what you think about it. I think it's nice and easy to navigate and serves its purpose. What do you think could be added (the tabs on top are home | products | promotion | about | delivery | contact). I have a youtube channel where I will be posting more videos soon, and a facebook page. Most importantly how do I get it up on google search?
Thank you in advance!

Looks very clean and easy to navigate (I don't know bulgarian though!)
Maybe someone who knows Bulgarian can give better feedback :p

Google has a bot and u will eventually get there, but if you want to be like on the 1st page, you need to hire a SEO (Search Engine Optimization) guy, which can be pretty expensive.
Ofc if your friend has some knowledge and is willing to learn, there is a lot of SEO info in the net so he could give it a try.
For the site - it looks OK, but there are two things I don't like and they kinda ruined my 1st impression:
1) The font you're using looks really strange and not in place with the overall theme of the site
2) The right tab where you have those small banners needs a redoing. It's just too empty in there and yet your pictures there are very small. Either get more stuff there, or make better/larger banners for the brands.
I know those things are small, but IMO if u fix them ppl will have better overall impression for the site.
Just my 2c

Use better fonts. imo you don't need that rectangular picture of a ripped guy there it kinda messes up your "layout grid". It's not quite there aesthetically and I don't know about it's functionality because it's in another language. Btw I took a look at your friend's portfolio and sorry to say but hes just not a very good web designer...

Colors are a bit gloomy. Right side column, the logos could be in single fold line on top of each other so they fill more of the column.

i agree with things said in this thread already and i want to add:
if you go for example
Interactive Nutrition ---> Lean Gainer
then if yours on the lean gainer site the left side is "default" again like it was in the beginning.
i think the interactive nutrition should stay expanded and there should be this small black bar in front of "lean gainer" like it is when you hover over it.
So that you know where you are currently.
I know its already in the title every time like "Interactive Nutrition: Lean Gainer" but still 
maybe try to let the name "Powerhouse" stick a bit more out of the logo to make it more readable.
But thats prolly just me

I liked it, only thing was those logos on the right, too small. But don´t make them too huge, nothing irritates me more than a site with flashy banners and huge logos. Also a bit darker backround might look more pleasant. Otherwise this site beats most e-shops.

Its ok. The layout is ok, but colorwise, I must say it looks pretty weird. The fact you are using highly saturated colors in combination with greys *which DONT have saturation* is an ugly mix, you might want to avoid that.Id recommend change the BG to something with the metalic tiling to a simpler bg, like the one in http://www.geekfield.com/ which is a small texture. The logo needs a bit of work.
Maybe you want to consider moving the facebook, skype and other buttons of the same type to the bottom of the screen where they wont capture that much attention, since you want the user to navigate the site, and the rest is extra info.
Maybe the same with the bar on the right, the sponsors can go down as well Just my 2 cents. Good luck!

Hmmmm, you might wanna change the picture of the ripped man with the soccer ball.... at least remove the white back ground. my 3 cents
|
the banner at the top is way too big imo.

Unfortunately your browser does not hava JavaScript capabilities which are required to exploit full functionality of our site.
Why do you force me to enable Javascript?

Thanks for the comments. I really don't have enough content so far to fill the right side as much as I would have liked. Also as far as colors/images/etc go I'll try to improve them to be more user friendly.
Again I appreciate your comments.
ps I thought everybody had Javascript enabled?

It's a reasonable layout, not to hard to navigate. Information is present and doesn't look to bad either. I have javascript disabled by default. then I choose to whitelist certain sites (e.g. TL.net) after i get to know them. It's a security precaution for me. Also eliminates lots of annoying ass things when browsing unknown sites.

No. NoScript is a reasonably popular addon. It's great to use JavaScript to improve your users' experience, but unless it's central to your site's functionality (which in this case I'm pretty sure it isn't) you should do your best to make sure everything works without it.
The site seems to work reasonably well in ELinks (text-only browser, great for doing accessibility testing). A few of your images (the ads down the right columns I guess) are missing ALT text, and I don't understand the purpose of the iframes on the main page. In firefox, the ads on the right change size when I mouseover them, which doesn't look quite right.
