ParticipantThe white text ” The Return Of Feel Good Music”
on the white background is hard to read, but other than that it looks solid man.November 10, 2011 at 10:32 pm #9660softcore
MemberIn “Weekly Volcano” you forgot to change the “default” Article 1 title! 😉
Looks good overall – if you are not short on money, try to find a way to make those Wix ads fo away – if they require subscription fees for that, give it a thought as the website will look way more pro without them! 😉

ParticipantOK, first of all, I think this is a great first start. So don’t take anything I say personally. I’m only speaking as a guy with 15 years of doing websites, and thus I want to help you get better.
First off, I’m reluctant on Wix, only because I’m seeing Flash becoming the bastard child of the net with all the anti-flash sentiment out there. I am happy to see Wix gives you a mobile counterpart, as there is a mobile site that shows up when I looked at it on my Android tablet. If you’re not paying anything right now, keep it. Grow from it, but down the road if you grow as a DJ then think about your own hosting.
I would tell you to invest in a domain name, like icemanDJ.com (it’s available) or djicemen.net (it’s available). Do just a redirect to this site, so it becomes easier to spread your name and site around.
The purple text looks ok, but it gets harder to read on the moon. I’d also suggest on your home page you put some kind of “news” as the primary thing. An even you’re playing, a new mix you posted, etc.
When you post events, put details. Not just you and a name of a venue. Post what the event is about, cover, dress code, specials, address, etc. Make it easy for people to come check you out.
Love the videos. Keep doing them. The New Jack Swing mix is cool…you have an MP3 of it?
I’d change the “Articles” to “Press”. That’s what you’re posting. Press about you. So this is advertisement and thus you should name the section “Press”. “Articles” makes me think it’s a blog.
You should post a clickable link to your blog and any other social media. I see them in your contact section, but I can’t click on them. You have to make it easier on the user or else they won’t bother.
Keep it up! Evolve. My website might look amazing now, but look back to when I was also a rank amateur trying to figure it out. Every site is a slow evolution…just keep updating and growing.

ParticipantI like the site. Yet, I would suggest making the words easier to read. Maybe, use black outline on your letters…if that can be done. Another thing I would do is include photos….especially of women. Many people on the Internet don’t read. Yet, they’ll damn sure look for pics.
