first off m8ty your address at the top is wrong but I did find your shop and its nice i'm still a newbie so i'll just say what i'd be thinking if I was a customer

first off you dont display what payment methods you accept and this is usually one of the first things I look for

 

the left hand bar looks a bit tatty at the top theres a piece of cream background left and at the bottom it overhangs the bottom box ( just cosmetic stuff though )

 

Also having to double click all links gets a tad annoying.

Once on the shop when I was browsing, 'about us', 'meet the team' I clicked on home and it took me back to your website not shop.

This may sound a bit daft but i'd personally seperate the shop and your main site once on the shop have all home links redirecting to shop and have a plain visible link on shop stating return to main website. If the users decided to view your shop try to keep them there aslong as possible and making them work to navigate there doesn't help.

 

Just small niggles though overall like the design good job hope it wasn't to critical :)

Correct link is http://gbmotoracingparts.co.uk/onlineshop/

One thing is saw that really annoyed me was the top banner navigation menu kept reloading every single page change. You should separate the flash/swf navigation menu and just load the lower pages after its loaded once. I hope you understand what i mean I cant put it into word properly. Anyways I meant the top navigation menu shouldn't keep refreshing on every single page you goto.

For a first attempt I'd say that it's not too bad.

You need to check alignment (the footer) and spelling (... short bellmouth kit for r1 04 05 05 simmilar

dimentions to kit yamaha ...) plus possibly increase the font size a bit but overall, it's ok.

I agree with what has been previously stated. Your site has alignment issues. In addition, I think your site uses too many colors. Stick with a 3 color color scheme. I would remove the brown from your site (in the buttons) and maybe replace it with blue. Also your link over color needs to be changed away from the default osC light blue. Aside from the color, I like the stripped down version of your site (removal of many of the infoboxes). I suggest you install SSL and remove the product count in your categories infobox. Also the My Account link in your header is broken.
