    green should be the color for you

    Posted on Sep 22, 2010 at 2:48 AM

    I like this page but it has some issues from my point of view.

    To answer your question: You should use green because it represents, nature, life, calm state and health. Pink is girlish and you have 57% Female, but not girls, your target is 40+, people mostly with health problems so they need a trust and calm feeling. yellow and orange are dynamic, energetic and optimistic that could be good but if it's to much they become bad flames.

    The header it's not arranged well, it's like you have 3 headers in stead of one and then the menu. I think you have to much going on there, and you should use them in a different way.

    This is what I think make sens, well it makes for me :).

      • 1are this buttons ?

        if they are buttons will not work like that because they look like part of the logo.

      • 2header

        it looks like you have 3 headers

      • 3contrast

        this should be an important call to action ? if it is then you need a different color a complementary color to have contrast so that it pops out

      • 4this is under the first fold

        because this is under the first fold (for 1024x768 resolution) you don't get what is with a little bit of yellow color there. maybe you could take it up a bit so that you see that is an arrow pointing down

      • 5why all this colors on the menus ?

    Use green - colour theory says so.

    Posted on Sep 22, 2010 at 5:22 AM

    This is a vast improvement on the original site which I just looked at. I like the design you have come up with. I just think you need to filter out some unnecessary/secondary information.

    I won't go over the points that others have made. But I will say that I agree with some of them.

    I agree that there are way to many buttons on the page, calls to action should be obvious and eye catching not disappear into button wonderland.

    If you look up colours that signify trust (http://www.color-wheel-pro.com/color-meaning.html) the green comes up trumps according to the theorists.

    You do have too much white space around the 'As Seen in:' section. I was wondering if you could switch that onto a vertical row, along with the Why use ABC online pharmacy, this would maximise the space you have on the page.

    Is the primary objective to get people to sign up?

    You have also boycotted some ideas which people are used to, like the search bar being in an unusual place, when comparing to the norm.

    Also if you are targeting 40+ women, why have you got a video of what looks like a recovering junkie on your front page? Just replace that with someone the target market will listen too - like a doctor perhaps.

    Good work. Proper Web2.0 look. Good luck with the iterations.

    fantastic

    Posted on Sep 22, 2010 at 9:33 AM

    To be totally honest I don't think anyone here can tell you which will perform best. We can guess (I like the green one) but the best thing to do would be to use some sort of multivariate testing to work out what your customers think is the best option.

    There's not much to critique on the website itself. If it were me I would go easier on the gradients and shadows but that's a preference rather than a proper critique. It looks really nicely polished and I see no real reason to change anything.

    Edit: The one thing I would critique is the lack of a clearly defined goal. There should probably be fewer calls to action, or rather there should be one strong call to action, and everything else should be calmed down a touch so that it's easier to guide the user to the primary objective.

    Less attention seekers

    Posted on Sep 22, 2010 at 12:31 PM

    This page seems like a lot of stakeholders have told you that this, and this and this needs more attention :-) And in the end everything just blurs out for the visition. When every element is an attentiongraber you makes you visitors heads explore.

    Conside allso to not overuse the embosed effect on too many elements. Think the design show that you master todays design trends to perfection, but save some of your CTA skills to elements that should be attentiongrabers.

    Think you should consider less of the blue, becourse it makes me think more of speed drug than health drug :-)

    I vote for green. All the elements are placed in perfect positions except the header which is divided into four parts. It would be better if you bring the testimonials down to the main image and remove the line between the logo part and search part. Otherwise the layout design is good.

    It looks like there are too many buttons but some of them are not buttons and they look like buttons. By giving embossed effects to many elements one cant differentiate between buttons and other objects. For example: callouts by Jullian, Frank and Bill. Because of too many colors and buttons, the main menu navigation is losing its importance.

    Very Bright and too cluttered

    Posted on Sep 23, 2010 at 1:34 PM

    While it is bright and appealing to the eye, the header looks little too cluttered. What about taking out the section that shows the search and placing it somewhere else?

    Nice overall design.

    Posted on Sep 24, 2010 at 5:33 AM

    Hello Taner, The website is well designed with full web2.0 features, videos, social networking and also well arranged.

    I liked the facebook and twitter badges at the top, nicely designed and placed.

    The only change I would say is footer seems some lighter, make the gradient a bit darker. May be as the top blue or just a bit darker than current.

    Overall Excellent work.

    Too much blue - too busy

    Posted on Sep 24, 2010 at 1:59 PM

    The lay out is busy! And its too blue. Try something cleaner and maybe more of a minimalist approach?

    As everyone else said before green should replace the blue, and also you should clear a bit that header as it's very crowded and a bit hard to realize what's in there. Also you used green and blue for the buttons, but instead of the blue, if you want to make a difference between the Monthly Specials category and the Popular Medications you should go for a different green. All I'm saying is that the present brushes aren't the best choice and you miss a bit of clarity, especially in the header section. All the best

    Busy busy busy

    Posted on Oct 02, 2010 at 10:15 AM

    I would choose green for the section in question.

    Otherwise it's a nice design overall but its VERY BUSY. I do not really know where to look first and where to click (like the Godaddy website..) I'm lost :-)

    Nothing!

    Posted on Sep 21, 2010 at 4:58 PM

    Looks great... I am leaning towards the Green panel version... looks serene and relaxing to the eye.... the pink one looks like a tampon company colourscheme.. Overall, a very nice, featured looking layout.

      Thanks for your comments about the color selection. Do you agree with L Brown's comment about the color? He said "The orange and blue concept works best for me. I like the fact there are only 2 main colours, with the green just to highlight key areas."

    I like the first concept

    Posted on Sep 21, 2010 at 8:27 PM

    The orange and blue concept works best for me. I like the fact there are only 2 main colours, with the green just to highlight key areas.

    A really smart looking site. I like it.

    I do have to mention that i think your header area is very large. Very little content will sit above the fold of the page on a 1024 screen res.

      I agree. The rest of page below fold is "filler", mostly for SEO purpose. People directly want to search the medication they specifically want to look for cheap price. Also, we put a big arrow to lead them to fill out the form and that's above the fold. We want all attention above the fold.

    Less of Everything

    Posted on Sep 21, 2010 at 9:41 PM

    First, to answer your question, the green. You're already using it for buttons and such so it ties in.

    More importantly though, there is too much going on. The main navigation was lost to me until I looked much closer.

    Isn't the primary CTA for a pharmacy to get refills/new prescription orders? The two buttons for those things are some of the smallest elements on the page. For those visitors that are new to the site, I would think the Gift form would be a big draw but it is hidden below the fold.

    The shopping cart and search box feel out of place and over done.

    Given your target demographic, how relevant are the social media plugs?

    I'm sorry to be so critical, but ignoring everything below the arrow, I count 23 different things saying click me and that doesn't count the search box or the shopping cart elements. I just felt overwhelmed.

    I wonder what this home page would look like without the search/shopping cart section as well as the quote section. I would make the video and the "Trusted by over ..." really pop off the page.

      Thanks for your constructive feedback Brett.

      Do you agree with L Brown's comment about the color? He said "The orange and blue concept works best for me. I like the fact there are only 2 main colours, with the green just to highlight key areas."

      "The main navigation was lost to me until I looked much closer." I will definitely ask this question in our usability test, but so far nobody mentioned this.

      The main functionality is the search. Usually people know what medication they are looking for, because they come to online pharmacies to look for the cheapest prices. So they are not shopping around much. That's why we put the search box in prime space. Also, in many larger ecommerce sites, search is becoming the main feature.

      New order and Refill Order - we think people will not miss these because they first look at the logo area and they don't need to be so big at that prime real estate spot like other buttons.

      Can you please explain what you mean or how we can "pop off" the trust banner and video? That would be appreciated. Maybe change its background to something darker?

      I still think it is green. If you're trying to highlight the trust section, make it stand out.

      As far as placement, number and size of the various elements on the page, we'll have to agree to disagree. Like every other pharmacy site I looked at, there is just too much going on in my opinion.

      Concerning the "pop" statement, if you want those 2 elements to stand out, remove the visual noise around them. You're giving users too much to take in. It is like an art museum. How often do you see a wall of 30 pictures? It is more like 5-6 with healthy spacing (padding) around each picture so that your eye is drawn to the picture. The picture pops off the wall because your eyes can distinguish the art from its surroundings.
