Easability Review

www.repairmyguitar.com
Hey all,
I`m looking for 2 things on this review:
1. Does the site flow smoothly / easy to use?
2. Do you understand quickly why you`re there and the benefit you will recieve.
Alot of time was spent on limiting user error, preventing spammers from submitting forms, catering to the "non java scripters". If you`d like to test the functionality you can use the State - "ztestonly" at the bottom. Otherwise please don`t spam the stores, thanks!
Functionally it works properly, I know its not w3c compliant, doesn`t like php much. Aside from that, let me know if you have any other issues/comments.
Thanks so much!cubemonkey1/28/2008 9:05 AM

I use Firefox 2.0 and haven`t had a problem with the menus, but i believe you can limit the number shown to 10 or so like IE does automatically, I`ll look it up.
I haven`t thought of them having images turned off. Is that really common? It`s not like images are inserting malicious code like javascript. Just wondering I`ve never heard that mentioned before.
Not sure what you mean by "title tags" in the links. If you mean the title attribute, I was under the assumption that it adds to the non-indexed text in the file, making bad SEO by reducing the keyword density of the page. Therefore not really doing anything useful, I think even most screen readers will skip that attribute.
I will change the alt tags to include keywords, I hadn`t thought of that thanks!
Thanks again for the great feedback.
repairs! That seems to be getting harder to find these days.
Ya, initially the goal was to start "smaller" even though it turned out not to be so small and just do guitars. I will be adding a means of searching for what other types of instruments stores can repair.
The site has been up and running getting business and will continue to do so freely (except for my own money). Once I feel, and they feel it has demonstrated a value for their business, I will charge a small yearly fee to be listed on the largest guitar repair website.
Stores that choose not to pay will be filtered out and only receive emails with the problem and no contact information. Hopefully they will see they are missing out on business their competitors are getting.
Please do use it! So far I have received great feedback from both customers and stores!
