Hello!
I buy/sell/create Alaska Native artwork. At this time I only have a few of my pieces on the site. I am marketing to the older generation, established galleries, women, and collectors.
It is quite bare. I am hoping to find out what I need to do to the site before I start advertising it in ernest. I am using a company called Homestead to build my site. It`s basically a template that I plugged things into. I will spend the money in a few months to have it updated to my specific vision.
Other than all around comments I would like to get your opinion on:
1.What other pages (information) should I add?
2. Do my photos of the artwork work and are they pleasing?
3. What color scheme do you think will work, and should I add other graphics or photos?
4. Would you buy from this site? Why or why not?
Your comments are very much appreciated!

hmmm....how does one get people o nit-pit ones website?
From your reveiw I can see what I need to work on.
I know now that I need to add a page that relates to price, material and quality. And to add a page describing why these prices are what they are (they are actually incredibly low prices for these types of pieces )
I am at the moment negotiating a deal with a copywriter. I am unfortunately one of those people who can pitch rather well in person...but when it comes down to writing it all, I am lacking. This is a good thing to know, and something that needs to be addressed.
These are all very helpful tips. I am one of those people that has to know what the thing has to look like in the end so that I can aim for a goal.
Thank you!
The prices are based on the type of materials used (which are very rare and can only be worked by a certain group of people), the cultural background of the artists, and the skill. I have included a description of what the pieces are made of ...albeit breifly (walrus ivory, caribou and polar bear hair)...but maybe adding a page about the "specialness" of the materials will work?
I am assuming most people who will be vewing the site have some knowledge of the pieces....should I just go ahead and assume they have none? What do you think?
But I do think I need to seriously consider having individuals that have had no contact with my company. This is very thought provoking actually. lol.
I have been playing with the pictures and arrangement trying to get a feel for what I like.
I have tons of photos that I have taken myself...just trying to see what would work visually....and still feel warm and fuzzy.
Stay warm!
