I would love feedback .http://paradiseicemore.com I have put this 3 times and still waiting.

Hi @aeromans1. Thanks for your patience!

What items are your top sellers? You might want to consider using a featured items section to highlight those near the top of your homepage. This reduces the effort for customers to buy items that they tend to purchase the most. 

I would also consider adding a "contact us" page. You can add a contact form to the page, and also include the address and phone number so everything is centralized to one place on your site.

Hi Adam

Not sure if you replied as there are thousands of emails and I might have missed it. My web site is www.tranquilityskin.com and my square online store is https://tranquilityskin.square.site/s/shop. Would love any suggestions. 
thank you!

Hi @tranquilityskin - hopefully it will be easier to see that I've replied since I'm tagging you.

Your site looks really nice! The main thing that jumps out at me initially is that there aren't too many images on the homepage. A few well-placed images can help engage visitors when the first land on your site. I like the image you use at the top of other pages, so something like that would work well. I'd also recommend adding a button to the section to motivate buyers to take an action. You also might consider adding the Instagram section to your homepage if you're using that to promote your business - it'll get you more followers.

You've got a great start going for your online ordering page, @BeChewzy. I think what your homepage needs is a little bit more extra info about the business itself. An "about us" section and a "contact us" section, for example. I'd also recommend adding the address, phone number, and hours to the footer. I would also recommend adding images for all items where possible, partly for consistency but also because it will make visitors hungry! 🙂

I would love your thoughts on my site: coffee-inspired.square.site 

 I just opened and plan to update inventory/rotate it regularly. Already, I am trying to adjust my shipping rates (continue free shipping with a non-sale price) and may add more pix (needed?). Thanks in advance!

[AdamB]

More pictures is often a great idea, @Coffee-inspired!

Do you have a business logo? I like the image you have on your homepage, but I don't feel that it works very well as a business logo. It's totally okay if you don't have one - you could use text instead. I'm also thinking you might try switching the layout of your header section to one where the image is on the right and your text is on the left. This will let visitors see the full image and text more easily.  Do you have a simple catchphrase or saying that resonates with your business? I'm also thinking you could move the text you have there now to it's own "about us" section, then use a simply phrase with the "order now" button.

Please take a look as it's my first attempt: www.papermoonphl.com

You did a great job, @kyletheresa! To things that jump out at me as opportunities for the site:

1. An instagram section - are you using social media for promotion? This will be a great way to get followers.

2. Using stories like a blog - given what you are doing with the business, stories seems like a great opportunity to talk about your collaborators and the local community.
