    Default Website review request

    Hi, guys,


    Sorry for my English, first of all.


    I am one of the founders of a new unique project in sports betting area.


    We launched several months ago. We know that a segment of pro bettors is very satisfied with the project, but at the same time we have a lot of things to improve (we did not have a lot of investment, so some ideas and improvements were not implemented yet).


    We would like to ask everyone here, especially fond of gambling affiliate area and sports betting in general, please give us a fair review.



    We would be appreciated if you answer the following questions:
    1) 1) Have you got the main idea of what this site is all about?
    2) 2) How much time have you spent before your understood the gist of the website good enough?
    3) 3) What do you like about the website? (details appreciated)
    4) 4) What don’t you like about the website? (details appreciated)
    5) 5) Do you have a free tip on how to improve the website?
    6) 6) Do you feel there are some technical bugs from your side (browser related, …)?


    We would like to give a small money prize of for the best review. The amount will depend on the total number of participants ($5 for every participant – for example, $50 in case 10 reviews are posted)

    http://www.betsec.com/

    If you have any partnership proposal, please feel free to contact me at important(at)betsec.com


    The web address of the website could be seen from my email address. Thanks, fellows!

    Hi Betsec,

    At first I thought the site is missing some colour, but the fact that you give a large amount of useful information to your visitors it makes out for the lack of colour.

    I would suggest that you make the recommended book makers stand out a bit more. I find the site very interactive, love the section where the community can agree or disagree to the picks and the discussion board.

    I would only like to see the design a little bit more elaborate. I am sure that as you going alone, you will improve it.

    I wish you all the best with your site!

    Thanks, Maria! I agree with your comments, if you mean Graphic design, then yes, we will work to improve it in the next releases.
    We did not pay enough attention to the Graphic design as nobody of our users complained yet

    Well, Maria, there is no doubt we need to have more opinions from women. Sports betting industry is very occupied by men.

    You know perhaps a nice take over page would do the trick and you don't have to alter the rest of the page.

    My reply to grem is still not published by moderators. Is something wrong there?

    Okie dokie here is my review and it's more a personal preference than anything.

    I love color and every site I stay at has to have some or I move on. I felt that when I visited your site I was overwhelmed by white background and black font color.

    The reason I love color on a website is because it catches my eye. For example. When you go to a restaurant and look at the menu you will notice certain items they want you to look at are done in bright colors ( usually the more expensive items ) and the items that are less expensive and usually not as popular are done in soft colors that don't catch your eye.

    While blue is a very popular template color I would suggest changing the blue you have to a darker blue that stands out. Here is an example of the site I am currently working on. Just to show you the difference of bright colors compared to plain white



    With that said many people / players may be looking for a site just like yours and simply want the info and get out. If that's the case your site looks excellent. If you want people to take a closer look however I would change things up just a bit to showcase where you really want players to go.

    Information wise you have a lot and it seems in excellent order and very easy to read. I would make it clear that a membership is required to visit your forum

    Hope this helps.

    Chris

    Hi, Chris!

    Many thanks for your review. Your site seems to be targeted more on casino players, so it should have a great bright design/colors. It is worth to mention that our site is targeted on professional sports bettors, but we would not like to ignore other players as well, so we agree the graphic design should be improved, you are very right here.

    And what about the gist of our platform... Have you spent much time to understand what the site is all about?
    We have an assumption that it is hard to understand the idea for people with a small sports betting experience.

    Site looks good. I don't like the reg form page, looks tacky & out of sync. Intereted in what kind of traffic/coversion rates you're getting with a site like this but overall it looks decent.

    Thanks for your comment, blendtec. Yes, we will work on reg page.
    We proud of our traffic, as it consists of smart and rich people, highrollers. But we still need to improve the conversion from affiliate programs, because those bookies we advertise at the moment are already used by most of our visitors. I am sure when we add some new bookies, our conversion rates will be very good.
