Hi all,

Just finished the online store, well actually still a few tweaks to make etc... And it's always an ongoing project.
But today the website went live, and just simply looking for some feedback on the store and layout etc...

It's: http://www.designer-man.co.uk/

You'll notice we do not have an address up yet, currently awaiting the set-up of our PO Box address and that as well as company number etc.. will be put up.
Still loads of stock to upload but getting there slowly.

Thanks for checking it out!

Hi Luke,

I need to look at your website more and will leave a more detailed feedback. But what ever you do DON'T get a PO Box address rent a virtual mail address. PO BOX is just as bad as having no address in my view.

Just wanted to say that before you spent time or money.

Thanks for your reply,

With regard to a virtual address, I've done a little research into them, and many seem to be based in the cities (for obvious reasons) I'm actually based a little out (South Cumbria).

Have you any recommendations for any of these that also include forwarding of mail? The thing is with this, that increased costs will be incurred on return parcels, in which a PO Box seems a good option as it allows me to simply collect from a local post office.

Thanks for your time,

Regards,
Luke

Superb looking website. I always liken this style of website to that of H&M and I think it looks very impressive for the fashion trade.

I would agree with not having a PO Box and if you want to stand more chance of getting customers to pay online I would consider having a telephone number clearly displayed as this will give them peace of mind that they are dealing with a professional organisation they can communicate with. This is almost certainly something you will need if you plan to accept payments directly using a payment gateway/merchant account.

Best of luck with the store!
