Honestly, the old site comes across as way more “real” to me and I think he should go back.
I appreciate that they’re getting their enclosure done with 3D printing but going for a highly refined website design while 3d printing your enclosure seems like a mismatch in quality expectations. (I think the new site comes off as an attempt at a refined modern design but is very “light” or lacks real personality or depth)
I think the old site and the 3d printed enclosure of the product are the perfect match.
- nerdponx 4y agoIf anything I take it as a positive signal when a company has an "amateur" website. If they are successful without a fancy modern-looking site, then it means that the product must be decent enough to sell itself, and the business owners are presumably putting their energy into the product & service and not just appearances. I have no idea if this is true in general, but it seems to hold up in my own experience.
- Ken_At_EM 4y agoAll actions and design choices signal something. I feel the same way, I’d be much more likely to buy from the old website. The new site brings me slightly closer to asking myself “is this real? Is this a scam” because it lacks authenticity and ends up looking like yet another generic web whatever point O website.
