well, the only negative Impressions could be, that your Shop is not (yet) responsive.
You would not be able to reach many Customers, using Smartphones.
I would therefore strongly advise you, to check on the Themes, listed here

http://www.bigmax.ch/

to find out, wich one of the (free!) Themes, shown at the site, would meet your Taste.
Most of them are available trough the OC Extension Pages, when searching for them with
the Keywords responsive and bootstrap Themes.

Hi,

I have had a quick look at your website. Overall, I am impressed and would purchase from your store if the price was right. I have not checked them out compared to other market places.

Good Points
  • - You have got your address and landline phone number
  • - Using SEO titles
  • - Great product images. Clean and shows what the product is.
Improvements
  • - I would remove the Ex Tax: price. Unless you are charging I would not include it
  • - When you go into a category I would set it to view as grid by default. (Just my view)
  • - The descriptions, I would try and break it up a little bit rather than having it all on one line. Makes it easier to read.
  • - How about adding some of your top selling products to the home page shows people what you have rather than them having to click to see the first product.
Please note I am being ultra picky. But I guess it down to want to help people as much as I can as I can not find a niche that I want to compete in....

So please don't take offence.

Hi,

When I did this I used a free extension but I can not remember where.

Just googled it and found: http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 5&start=60

Does this help?
