Website Critique: Enhancing your presentations with Presenter Media

Presenter Media is a website that offers PowerPoint templates, animations and clipart for unlimited download during an entire year subscription. It’s a great deal, but most first time visitors miss the subscription information. The video website critique shows where the website can use some improvements to make the subscription services more prominent to new visitors.

Overall Improvements

• Basically put the focus on your subscription service. Check that your main website content is above the fold. If people can’t see it, they won’t subscribe!

Homepage

• The Flash animation at the top is not working in your favor. It’s displaying your products, but not showing what could be accomplished using your products. You are not just selling images/clipart so I believe it’s best to show what can be done using your products instead of just displaying them.
• There are so many ways you can use that top banner space, but the most effective way is to create a call-to-action for the subscription. Just take a look at other subscription based stock photo websites and you’ll notice that the subscription information is right there at the top to grab the visitor’s attention.

• Another option is to polish up the look and feel of the 3 categories that you currently have blending into the text. For example take a look at what Harvest did on their homepage to focus on the subscription and below that show the 3 distinct groups that they’re targeting.
