The Little Guy Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 OK... my site needs something to get members to want to register, anyone have any ideas for me? http://publicsize.com Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62858-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 yes, a new design and some form of marketing. The site looks pretty hideous. " PublicSize™ is a growing place to build up a public of followers that you can become friends with, and be notified of almost everything they do. They post a news post, you will know, they post a shout out, you will know. Join today for Free! " I don't this statement really explains a whole lot about the site. If you are looking to build a new social community, I certainly don't think you are going to win over sites like myspace. I really don't see any particular reason that anyone would want to sign up.

The Little Guy Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 This isn't a "Myspace" infact, this wasn't ment at all to have a myspace like interface, but... I added a friends section that works simular to myspace, but that is supposed to be a small part of the site. The site will have: - Games - Web Search - Ebay Spy - Notes - Address book - Shout out box - YouTube Video of the day I don't want to turn this into a "Social Network" like myspace, but a small part of that built into the site. It is so hard to explain what this site is ment to do, since it is supposed to do so many random things, and basically combine lots of websites into one site. As you said... a "New" design... What do you think would be good? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62858-help/#findComment-312952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
moberemk Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 That's probably the problem right there. If you can't really describe the point of a site in one sentence, then it will be really, really hard to sell. Oh, and the google ads. Google ads in two places on the page?

The Little Guy Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 Yahoo has many services, but they don't have a description of them on their homepage. My site has many services too.

jcombs_31 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Yahoo has many services, but they don't have a description of them on their homepage. My site has many services too. so now you want to compare this to yahoo? There are many companies that don't have to detail what they do because they are well known, but to start out you have to do some form of marketing and describe what people can do and why.

steelmanronald06 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 - Games - Web Search - Ebay Spy - Notes - Address book - Shout out box - YouTube Video of the day - I can go to yahoo games and play a mess of games - I love my google, and now they have igoogle which caters to me - Why when I can go straight to ebay myself or go to google shopping? - I've got a notebook & pen AND notepad...need I say more? - My email client has this, as well as my CELL PHONE - Umm....text messages? Blogs? - Doesn't YouTube have video of the day, except they have one for each category?

perezf Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 You deinitely need a new design, this site seems to sloppy you need to bring it together and create a nice attractive layout Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62858-help/#findComment-316034 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattison Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 id say make your design less formal, so it makes people want to read, like face book, bebo ETC, it just seems a bit dull, and that i dont want to look at it anymore Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/62858-help/#findComment-330107 Share on other sites More sharing options...
