well…  I have finally made the plunge.. yup.. I am going to have my own website for my soap !!
very excited… and nervous..  I am creating all the pages, text, pictures, etc. and with the help of a friend, will be uploading them… I will manager the website, but I do have another person registering and hosting my website.  The domans are registered to me which is a good thing in case I ever decide to change "host"

so…  if you go to ournaturalcreations.com or .ca hopefully by mid September.. it should be up and running.  right now.. you just get an "under construction" picture… 

I am not going to have a shopping cart yet.. but there will be an order form that you fill out and email to the web address…

will keep you posted!

back to creating….. lol

Wolfy Oct 11th 3:39 pm

That same picture is on my business card..  I edited my index page.. and now my pictures don't show up on the index page.. gotta figure out what I did wrong… and I thought this would be easy.. lol

Hey Wolfy, still have not received package, when did you send it out?  Do you have a parcel ID#?

Great site, Wolfy! I can tell you really did put a lot of work in it and the amount of information on the soap is really great.

If you want constructive criticism, I'd say there's a bit of redundancy throughout the text (why goats milk soap is answered several times under a few sections), I'd move the Homemade Soap link up to the second spot on the left hand nav bar, I'd make the left hand nav spacing smaller so the average person can see them all in his/her browser without having to scroll down, and I'd consider removing the intro page.

Remember that most people who want to go to your site will consider this the most important page, so you want to make it the easiest page to get to: http://www.ournaturalcreations.com/04    handmade soap.htm

also, it looks like you've got a weird space in the link, which would make it difficult for people to link directly (see above)

Sorry, I've been doing web editing for the last four months, so I'm sort of in the critical mode. It really does look great!

Wolfy…wanted to let you know that the pkg came in today…yum…eveything Smells so good!  I am currently slathered in the Blueberry Body butter…I've been home sick in bed with the swine flu the last couple of days… so I covered my feet in butter and put some socks on to let it soak in…feels so good!  Thank you!  Thank you!  Do be advised…I will be buying more of the blueberry soap when you make it…I just LOVE that soap…just impatient that I have to get though a bar of lilac soap I bought on the Cape before I can break into yours…once you turned me on to homemade soap…I'll never go back to commercial soap again.

Sincerely yours….your soap groupie Darlene ;)

Wolfy Oct 20th 8:06 pm

Thanks guys.. and thanks Mox… for the suggestions.. I do hve a guy who is going over everything that I have done to fix stuff that I am incompetent with.. lol

I will take your suggestions into consideration…
:O)

Dar.. glad the package arrived… I will be making more blueberry soap.. now that I have new molds.. I was not too happy with the molds that I used before…

I can honestly say that if I ever stopped making soap.. I would still buy it from another soaper… I can't stand using the commercial soap from the store.. it makes me feel blech… lol
