    • Looks good, works well and seems full of content!

      My only criticism woul dbe to move the shop away from RokQuickCart and move towards RokEcwid as its a much better shop and look much better within a site, amongst having options for categories, multiple payment methods and better control of the shop.

      Your event calendar is a little boring, try and maybe use the RokMiniEvents extension, it looks nice and does what it needs to! Why display tons of empty calendar dates when you dont need too! also you can manage your events via google calendar :)

      Not very keen on the affiliates page, its again too boring! Try styling something yourself, i like the way the rockettheme extensions page displays items with a big image and text at the side of it with nice big buttons, would be easy to replicate a similar style rather than an ugly list!
      see: www.rockettheme.com/extensions

      Also work on some of your SEO dude, your relevancy is poor for the site, you need a better description and keywords to get a higher rank.

      Meta tags analysis.
      The Description meta tag relevancy to page content is 55%.
      The keywords meta tag relevancy to page content is 43%.

      Have a play with the meta tag analyser on this website (free)
      www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/metatag-analyzer.html

      Maybe get a sitemap extension too?

      Hope it helps!

    • Hey thanks for the detailsed reply. Fairly new to joomla and we are trying to add improvements as we go. seem to learn something new everyday.

      I will be looking into the cart you mentoned. Initially I setup the quickcart because as the name implies, it was quick. Things have not picked up in terms of using the cart but I hop with improvements it will.

      We have not really started usint the event calendar yet, but what I like about this one is that it displays event flyers. the downside is that users cant submit to it, its only admin driven so something that can handle flyers but also allow users to submit events would be perfect. I will look at the options you mentioned.

      the affiliate page needs woork, i agree.

      SEO stuff seems to change alot and I need to get up to speed on that. I will be contacting someone today to help me with those tricks.... i have a family member who does seo at his day job.

      I really appreciate the time you took to look at the site and review it.

    • Looks nice! What component did you use to put the little Twitter/Facebook icons on the edge of the screen?

    • The Social icons -
      Anything tabs : www.pixelpointcreative.com/support.html
      The videosection -
      hwdMediaShare is created by Highwood Design : hwdmediashare.co.uk/
      The store -
      RokQuickCart but i might move towards RokEcwid
      The events -
      Image Calendar : www.sysgenmedia.com/
      but it lacks a front end so it takes more effort than i had planned when i implemented it. I think if people could submit they would use it.

      thanks and keep the feedback coming so i can make improvements!
