Well I might as well dive in head first. I'm submitting my sight for review. Inviting all to come by take a look, sample what you will and write about it here. Suggestions are welcome. The site is geared towards feminization and mistress training, so I wouldn't expect much deviating from that.

Well... I guess my first impression is "where's the content?"

I don't mean to be rude, but it's hard to give feedback on a site that seems to consist mostly of a welcome post.

[MistressMelsa]

oh I don't mind. you have to register to see the content, it is an adult oriented site after all.

I registered (couldn't use firefox to register - the site complained that Javascript was off), and found myself nowhere. I had to click quite deep to find the only thing the site seems to offer, which is the blog.

I read the summaries of quite a few, clicked for (more) on one or two and realised that I still had no idea what the site was about. There's seemingly a whole bunch of posters to the blog, talking about hypnosis sessions about becoming a girl and stuff like that.

The bottom line is - there was nothing to interest me about your site. There was no presence of the owner or mistress, no images, no offerings, nothing to buy, nothing to get me aroused, no links to other similar blogs or sites. Nothing. A site needs something other than the ramblings of one or more unskilled writers.

I tried to unregister my account, but typically that's impossible - you should offer it.

I hope you find my review constructive. Best of luck.

Her site is just starting up, so yes, as stated content is slim. However, there is a fairly active chat session. If you are strictly tease/OD, then there is no better site than right here at Milanova! But, for those of us who have additional interests in feminization, sissification or erotic hypnosis... Melsa's site might be a worth while place to check out.

Well my first impression on this is the reviewer is not much of an explorer. This is mainly because he refers to 2 clicks after login "quite deep" and supported by him not finding any pictures. But i will rectify that, as it seems to be a recurring err. New users often click on the gallery and see nothing without realizing they are looking at their gallery. to see others one most visit their profile. So I will make that more obvious. As for my presence its mostly in the chat, but I do concede the welcome message is out dated. As for what the site is about, its right at the bottom of the page, every page.

Addressing the other lacking aspects is a little more involved. No offerings? Offerings of what? Nothing to buy, nope not at this time. Nothing to get you aroused? Well I did warn you that the content was very specific. No links to other similar blogs or sites. Now that could use some improvement, but its a new site, and none have yet offered to link up. Any takers? I know i could grovel to any one of the bigger sites, but I hate doing that. I want my site to be acknowledged for its unique qualities without having conversations like this all over the web.

And I do hope that wont be the only review I get. Even if the others say more of the same, at least it would confirm what needs to be addressed.

As a web designer, I have this to say.

It looks tossed together and looks like a page that is designed to just collect email addresses. I'm not saying it is, but your notice on the bottom shows that it was made by a free service and you have nothing except that it is an adult site on the main page.

You mention that you have to register for the things because it's an adult site. I can point you to several adult sites that have SOMETHING describing what is inside and why you should register.

Even a description of the type of adult content on your site would be good.

Anyway, now onto the specifics...

"so if you see anything not working inform Harlock" - Who is that and why isn't his name a mailto link?

"The site is free until further notice but there is some advertising, I can't talk about it so don't ask." - This makes me nervous. Why can't you talk about it? My first thought is that it contains something illegal like child porn or some such.

"You are welcome to register and interact here and have fun as we change the face of the world." - Change the world? Well, perhaps.. But unlikely. :)

"Oh and if your experiencing registration problems we recommend switching to the Firefox 2.0 browser." - I use firefox myself for it's web development capabilities. But if 1.5 is crashing or if it doesn't work with IE, you are cutting out MASSIVE amounts of traffic. I suggest you test your site against 1.5 and IE 6 and 7 (and I'd also do IE5, Opera and Safari, but that's just me).

If you need any help with the web design, I can probably help at no cost. But it sounds like you already have someone (harlock?). he should've already told you these things, but perhaps not.

Well kudos Lance, this review was much more informative that the last. Guess thats the advantage of a web developer's look. The welcome message has been updated. In it I've addressed these issues. As for looking tossed together, I guess you are entitled to your opinion.

I must admit I was a little curious and decided to sign up using a disposable email account (http://10minutemail.com/ if you are curious), the initial introduction did catch my eye as these marry closely with my own fetishes and desires. I agree that the website seems sloppily put together, it failed to grab my attention quickly enough to hold it, a vital point in this time of increasingly short attention spans. There is little if any introductory information, the 'hypnosis' that is talked about seems to be mainly in blog postings with no information as to what is done, the methods used or even the content. One would think this would be front page material?

So a site based mainly on the blogs of its users and a rumoured lively chat, so I could posit it is a growing online community rather than simply a site but we were invited to review the site not the community. I for one have my hands full with any number of online groups and without being able to research before hand see no immediate desire to join another because my interest is simply not piqued at this point. I don't particularly want to read a group of random blog posts to find out what is going on. Some clear concise information about what the site is for, who it is for, the hypnosis and feminization would seem to be in order. The website development one would assume would come with time till it is polished but it seems to be rather lacking as a starting point.

My suggestion? Clear and available information, pointers and something to introduce new members and the desire to take both good and bad criticism alike. Blogs and chat do not make a site although I wish you luck with your endeavour.

[all2true]

Hmmm
The intro page was a bit spartin
Oh and the words were off the right side of my screen
so I had a bit of difficulty reading the first letter of each
sentance was:
ike this.
also, what's with the big blue swirl on the top left?
Is that for hypnotism later?
or did you liked the design? (if so why is it not on the second page?)

I sugest adding a photo somewhere on the front page (either a women, or sub male)
this looks more like a blog site than a web-porn site
just one photo would be enough to intrest me, even if it is more of a blog.

Could you also play up what your are promising?
"If your not looking to be feminized to the point of looking like a girl in 2 -6 months then really there is not much for you here."
I would re-word this sentance, this does not sound dominate enough, my suggestion:
Male slaves will learn and be converted to a femine appearence in just 2-6 months! ( you don't have to talk about the not much here, because only those who want to will come, the exclusion is superflous, not needed. People will exlude themselves based on ther unwillingness.

"Unless of course you are a girl. In that case there is much to do here, mainly exploring your dominant side and learning the skills of the trade."
reword, my suggestion:
Dominate women are welcome to join in the fun and excitement of learning how to keep male slaves!

"There has bee some confusion over the gallery page so let me illustrate. The gallery link goes to your gallery"
Hunh? There has beeN some confusion/ how are you illistrating this idea?
do you mean: You will have a gallery link in your personal gallery, so no worries
OR
The gallery link is a part of my gallery program and a link is included once you sign on.

The Link to Harlock
gives me an error unless
I am logged in, this link should be present even when I am not logged in
I am wonder why can't I tell Harlock unless I log in? Error 99, I think was the error

"Oh and if your experiencing registration problems the site reportedly works on these browsers accordingly.
Perfectly: mozilla firefox2, 3, Safari 3
Nicely: I. Explorer 7, Opera 9
Barely: I. Explorer 6
Not working: any browser without javascript enabled, readers for blind people"

Please reword this, again this is my humble suggestion:
If you are exeriencing registration difficulties the Mistress is willing to inform you that the best browsers for this site are: Mozilla, ect
Also Explorer 7 and Opera 9 are working nicely
However Explorer 6 or browsers without javascript do not work as well.
(don't mention the bit about the visually impared, because they will not be able to log on, so why tell people they will not be able to?)

In summary
if I was going to be feminized
it would have to be a strong dominate women
Be bold, be athoritiative!

[MistressMelsa]

Well thanks for all the suggestions people. Some of them were really good ideas. A touch of salt and I'm pleased with the way it presents now. Don't agree? You're entitled to your opinion, and welcome to post it here. I will read it and consider it. But beyond that its my site and so long as it works the way I want it to and brings in those I wish to work with I am pleased.

[chastity]

In return may I ask if you will become a member of our community, will you join us in conversation, will you continue to post upon these forums or was this just a fishing expedition?

[MistressMelsa]

I cant say I'll promise that. But I'd like to. Its just a matter of holding my interest really.

[Lance_Lake]

Fishing Expedition.

[MistressMelsa]

Fishing Expedition.

I'd certainly stay longer though it the said community was more welcoming and not so quik to jump to conclusions.
