This website is too simple in terms of design and content, non of the C.R.A.P is applied, there is no clear navigation to guide the readers, and the reader hardly find out where to obtain information they need. More images added would certainly make the website more attractive, and the proper use of contrast would not make the content look so dull and unattractive.
It just too much text appearing within this page, its really hard to read , there is little proximity between lines, word are small, high linings are dull looking, there's no fancy looking designs are found. A good idea would be to add more images instead of words, as well as implement some colouring at the background, as viewers are more likely to prefer looking at pictures about their products than only from reading. Because of its unprofessional displays, it may let most consumers having a strong feeling that its a fraud company.
Its hard to identify the main page and the sub-page, this company's website is considered as a failiar, showing quite a difference from how they are doing in their actual business.
The HTML codes used are nested table, its long, cramped and not in order. The author will find it tedious and tiring to edit the codes as there are too many of them and it is all over the place. Also, the author will find it difficult to debug as the complicated codes are too hard to control, as well as its maintenance.
