        Everything about the site looks fine to me, the thumbnails could do with
        shrinking a touch and perhaps you could link the text as well as the images
        on the intro page. Prices look OK from a European perspective. Speed seems
        OK for Miva but it is your night time over here!

        There is a problem with ssl, it is saying "the security certificate is not
        yet valid or expired" but it's valid from 7/11/00 to 7/11/01 so it must be
        OK.

        The login account has both secure and non-secure items which upsets ie5 -
        generates a meaningless warning about view non secure items. This happens on
        all the basket and account pages twice per page.

        I would carefully consider the use of Upsales seems a bit pushy.

        Wouldn't take an outside US, is this deliberate? Set it to AK with a UK
        address all OK

        Got 4 of the famous "page cannot be displayed" messages for one
        transaction -seems too high to be acceptable 3 of these were in the ssl
        area.

        And my card got declined (Visa test number)

        Re the search engine thing, the great majority of our sales are as a result
        print advertising at a ratio of 10 to 1. Your site obviously has some very
        high quality product with a commensurately reduced general appeal. I would
        seriously consider advertising in some of the up market baby and "society"
        mags. In the UK "Country Life" would be ideal!

        Good luck

        WAY OFF TOPIC!

        Okay e-commerce gurus, take a look at my beautiful site:
        <A HREF ="http://www.nurserybright.com <http://www.nurserybright.com> and tell me">http://www.nurserybright.com <http://www.nurserybright.com> and tell me</A>
        why I haven't had a single order in the two days my store's been open. I
        had over 250 unique visitors a day after paying big bucks to get to
        number one on Goto.com for all the relevant search terms (which also
        puts you at the top on AOL, Netscape, Go/InfoSeek, Lycos, and quite a
        few others). But none of the visitors placed orders and none of them
        sent email or called.

        Is it something about my presentation? navigation? products too
        specialized? too high priced? not enough information? Miva too slow? not
        enough traffic?

        I just added the Boppy pillow and all the name brand logos on the front
        page tonight in hopes of adding some credibility, figuring maybe they
        were scared off by the handmade aspect of the products.

        Any thoughts would be appreciated.
