Question new site questions

Ok I just made Easy Green Tea today and uploaded it. I was looking at the site and was thinking of putting a new page up that just had a redirect on it and can I then put my affiliate link for the green tea in that page and just refrence my new page from the hompage?

Does that make sense? I am just trying to make the affiliate link not look so ugly.

And how does the site look? Any recommendations? And should I keep the certified domain logo up or should I take that off? Should I worry about an SSL Cert too?

Thanks

The green on green on green on green is killing my eyes. It gave me an instant headache. You should sell HeadOn from this page.

edit:
I would change up the colors and make it easier to look at. Maybe a more noticeable call to action. I tried that offer on one of my networks and had absolutely no conversions. Good luck though, I have heard some people say it converts well on here.

1. CHANGE TEH KOLORZ!
2. Change font, Times New Roman sucks for web
3. I would center the whole page horizontally
4. CHANGE TEH KOLORZ!

So should I use more neutral colors?

Is it ok to mask the affilitate link via a redirect page?

Is having the godaddy certified domain logo worth it on the site? Recommend any others?

1) Center the page in the browser window
2) Make the background where the text is white
3) Have a stonger CTA (call to action) make an order button in the text area
4) I'd be cautious about using Oprah. She doesn't endorse this particular product
5) Add a design / pattern to the bg image
6) I don't think you need the godaddy logo since you're not processing the cc

Hope this helps

Should I turn it into a 1 page landing page and drop the others? I jsut thought I would add some depth to the site but since I am jsut mainly wanting the conversions I was thinking of making it just a one page.

Or should I make some LP's for my PPC and keep the site as is, modify the colors....

I wouldn't worry about dropping the other pages. It could only help with Google IMO. Of course, I suck at Google, so you may want another opinion.

Question

is it ok to link to another page that redirects to the affiliate offer or should I keep the affiliate links as is?

Is it ok to mask the links or should I contact NB to see if it is ok for this campaign?

Aesthetically speaking, so much green makes me feel like I'm swimming in muck. There's no reason why you have to use so much algae to make your point about green tea.

I'd break these paragraphs up as well, making it look less like a Herculean challenge to read your pitch. Who wants to read that whole thing anyway? People have short attention spans - ADD is the new normal.

Where are your type sizes and dropheads?

Remove Oprah, or your knuckles are going to get whacked by her lawyers.

The Oprah banner came from the affiliate on Neverblue. So why should I worry about her lawyers?

Because if you need to hire one, they make $300 an hour.

If I were in your position, I would hire a good designer to give you a whole new design. It's worth it if you're really serious about selling the green tea, or whatever that stuff is.

Well the affiliate banner came from NB so I sent them a message to see if I need to worry.

I have updated the css some.. Green Tea Updated

I have run out of time this morning so I will be able to do a little more this afternoon.
