Australian Olive Oil Company

[Abikadabra]

My landlords are olive oil producers and asked if I could put a site up for them as they are exporting small boutique style olive oil bottles to Japan and they needed a web presence. I might have knocked this one up a little too quickly and may have missed some things, so any suggestions and criticisms are appreciated. www.australianoliveoilcompany.com.au
I will be back in 10 days (heading to the other side of Oz) so will make any suggested changes when I return. Thanks. Abi

That's a very nice site Abi, I like the slideshows you do on your sites. Beautiful photos.

Beautiful site, really good colours and the photos are stunning, really well done. And you are so lucky to have your workplace at an olive grove.

Very nice site! Love the colors and layout. Gorgeous photos too! A+

I like the site generally, but I don't think that the colour pallette matches the product - light olive oil and a dark, heavy background.

If your client needs a web presence because of the Japanese market, why isn't the site also in Japanese?

Thanks everyone for your comments. With regard to the dark background, that was at the request of my landlords. Below is the original website I made them, with the colours reflecting the olives, and the olive oil (I optimised the photos to reduce the size of the file to upload onto the forum, so pics are a bit pixelated). They wanted the site to be different from the one I made - larger, and dark so I made a new one which they are delighted with (although I think the first one was nicer - just needed a bit of tweaking with the layout). With regards to it being in Japanese, they did not have the $2,105 spare to pay for a Japanese translator to translate the website, and using an online translation tool does a very bad job, so the site is only in English. They have been selling in Japan for 4 years, but have not ever had a website.
