Hi folks,

By profession i am a software developer and working in this field from past 10 years.
Apart from my usual job, I collect perfumes as my hobby. I also make perfumes and recently wanted to run an experiment by selling perfumes. I had hard time to buy some unique brands which encouraged me to run my online perfume shop with unique collection from different houses.

I would also love to help if someone wanting to buy a perfume and having hard time to select which one will suit your personality etc.

I have just finished the website (https://whiffy.co.nz). Just wanted to share my website and would love to hear from you guys in regards to any suggestions or improvements.

Cheers!

Lias

Couple of things.

Appreciate that English is a second language, but the grammar on your website isn't great in places. Combined with the lack of any registered company details, I suspect many people might assume your site is dodgy. I'd definitely consider registering a company and get it's details shown on the site, and maybe get someone with excellent English grammar to proofread it? I'm pretty sure registering a company is only around $100, so not a huge expense and it tends to give people peace of mind.

Information wants to be free. The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

Website dosennt work for me - loads, but then get your logo spinning in middle of screen and thats it, cant click anything. So thats a put off for me sorry. (Not that I look at perfumes :) )

Using Version 70.0.3538.77 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Win 10.

What I can see tho is a little disturbing.... the return and exchange text.... shouldnt you be sourcing from legit suppliers anyway, rather than letting your customers find dodgy goods ?

@xpd its bit slow due to high latency. Its average 205ms from Auckland, i am planning to move somewhere in Sydney, hopefully next month. That should resolve it.

Thank you for your time mate.
