Feedback on home page + Site

Recommended Posts

Hi, I would like some feedback on my site please.  I think it needs to be more interactive on the home page as I have a high bounce rate.  Also there is huge spacing when I look at it on a mobile.  Can you change the overall design of your site or do you have to stick with what you initially chose?  TIA  https://www.carrieroyweddingphotography.co.uk

Please share your website URL so we can take a look.

Are you using Squarespace 7.1?

I love the design and layout of your website. But the site is very slow! The loading speed of the site's main page is 9.61 seconds. It is very slow, so you should work on site optimization. First, compress the images so that they weigh less, but without losing quality.Screenshot_2.jpg.e2534cfaae99964ff2e796685a83237f.jpg

I've just had a look at your website and this is what I'd suggest:

- I'd definitely have a look if you can compress your images so they speed up the load time
- I also personally prefer to use websites where the pricing is easy to see rather than digging through the website
- marginalise your text so they are all at the same width and increase the size of your buttons 
- I'd also double check some of the spelling, I think I saw a spelling mistake under 'packages' 
- concise your header to about (move contact under), wedding (move packages, pay deposit and pricing) and gallery
- add blog and FAQS into footer

but overall, I love it and I think the pictures are wonderful. I wish you all the best!

Hi @CarrieRoy

You've received some great feedback above — I just wanted to add that since you are UK-based, you should display a GDPR-compliant Privacy Policy and cookie banner.

Thank you everyone for your respnses. 

First, do I need to delete each individual image to resize and then upload again or is there a way to resize within square space?

Also Timrex mentioned removing the indents, how would I do that?

Sorry but I'm not very good with the design elements and appreciate the help and advice x
