I'll leave that for others ... but ... would you be willing to give us a list of the modules that you used? Did you create any custom modules?

Hi,
As you can see that it is an ecommerce site with Microsoft RMS.Except for the text/HTML module and login everything else was custom built.
Shopping cart summary
Shopping cart
Order confirmation
Registration
featured items
product list
department navigation
Category list
Our next thing that we plan to build is an ecommerce site which will not use Microsoft RMS

Bobby

Hi,
Sorry I forgot to mention the admin side of this.
1. Options to set campaigns
2. To see orders and also amend them
3. To set the Tax according to state region
4. To set shipping rates
5. We also have a set of reports which shows the customer list , top selling items, items that do not have an image
6. Since this is an RMS related one the dpartment creation item creation are done from the store and uploaded.
These were the modules built for this site.Please do let me know your comments on this.
Regards,
Bobby

hello,
The site looks good, and the store is easy to navigate. The only elements I can comment on really are when looking at the source code.
First thing I would do is remove the DotNetNuke copyright notice (admin menu / site settings)
Next it appears as though you have not entered a description for the home page - I highly recommend you enter a description for each of the pages you create within your site as it can really influence search engine results.
Looking through the code it appears as though there are a lot of in-line styles, ie:
style="padding-right: 4px; padding-left: 2px; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(155, 126, 50); font-family: Arial;"
You should really try to avoid in-line styles and place any styling in the skin.CSS file - one of the reasons for this is that it will make it easier for search engines to index the content, and if you have a lot of in-line styles you may find that you are indexed for the keywords of:
font
style
padding
arial
etc. - I have seen this happen before.
Apart from that, the site looks good, thanks,
