Hi

here is my idea:

Hi vhqdesign,

Thanks for your quick reply.

You are on the right track.

I like the big domain searcher, and the simple look. Can you make a button for "How to buy" that could be great.

I don't like the black color, If you could make this a more friendly color, but still a color that is different from the blue.

The two products will be named "Limited" and "Unlimited", one cheap product with limits, and a more expensive unlimited product.

Latest annoncement should show time and date, so the customers know when this have been created.

Some where in the bottom we need a link for conditions. So people don't think we want to hide them... We prefer to show them.

Annoncements is typical not so big. Mayby only the half of the text in your example. Mayby you can make this a little smaller. You could mayby use some logos from PHP, MySQL, Debian, Joomla, DirectAdmin etc. to fill out the empty space.

I will love to see other designes ideas to.

Thanks for your ideas.

Helena I love your first input, very clean and simple. I need you to add some links to about needhost and contact. Mayby it could just be text links in the top. It is not so important, but it is required.

Can you make a quick example on how you think the ordering process could look like? try still to make is simple and easy.

Anne thank you for your input, but it is to cold and advanced.. We need to get a more fresh look, fresh colors and more simple :-)

Thanks.

Hello nicdal

Could you please send link to the order page you want to see designed? What kind of info would you like to see there?

nicdal

There are many ways to make the ordering page.

The ordering process is like this:

Step 1/4 (Domain search)
Step 2/4 (Package selection)
Step 3/4 (User information)
Step 4/4 (Payment)
Done

Try our current ordering process on our homepage.

On step 1 you can do this:
- The domain is free, you can buy it
- The domain is not free, you can transfer it
- The domain is not free, you don't want to transfer it, just add it.

On step 2 you can do this:
- Select either package 1 or package 2

On step 3 you can do this:
- Write you personal informations

On step 4 you can do this:
- Choose to pay with creditcard, write the credit card informations and submit
- Choose to pay with wire transfer.

On step 5
- All done.

I hope this was what you needed.

I'll be posting cool concept soon :D

Here is my concept :D

I went for a more technological concept. Still 2.0 but with flashy colours and high contrast. Less is more but that doesn't mean it shouldn't have a bit of style and uniqueness :D
