I hope no one actually bought into that crap. Most of those themes are really basic with just a nice header and very little true customization. Not to mention some of the domains are a little silly.

I’m very glad to see that you too my suggestions to heart, and implemented a lot of them. As you can see, small, simple changes can really improve a site a lot.

I’m going to edit the review to mention your extra $50 discount now.

Feel free to consider purchasing a “follow-up review” in a couple months or so as you continue to improve BaseSites. Hopefully I’ll be able to write it with a better disposition

Just one last note from me

I understand that a website with a face is alot more valuable, especially selling products or web sites. I have just added a link to my peronal blog, which has some info on why I set up basesites in the first place.

feel free to check it out: http://www.absorbingtheworld.co.uk/blog

Tyler – This isn’t spam, but if your not happy with me adding this here, please delete and I won’t be offended

Hi Tyler,

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you again for the very honest, and practical review yesterday.

I’m pleased to let you know that in under 24 hours, we have taken your advice on board and changed the following:

1) Add screen shots on detail pages
2) Changed the links that opened in a new window to open in the same window.
3) Removed the testimonials page (until we get some customer feedback)
4) Checked spelling and grammar
5) Reduced the prices of all sites by $50
6) Added paypal buttons to the site spec pages
7) Added site link and price to the sales page
We are currently reviewing all duplicate content issues (which so far are only on the auto web sites – the copy writer that wrote the content for those sites went home early today, and will not return)

We will continue working on improving the customer web site experience with basesites, improve the overall quality of web site design and copy and above all, have a play with the pricing on some higher/lower content filled sites.

If any of Tyler’s readers is interested in a site, I’ll offer a further $50 discount – Just mention Tyler’s blog and I’ll send you a paypal invoice.

Also, any readers of Tyler’s blog who plans on launching a web based service/product, I’d recommend ordering a review from him! At $100 – It’s a steal

I have to agree with tyler that some of the sites I looked at are not original. In fact, some of them are common wordpress themes. These don’t seem like sites either… more like blogs. It wouldn’t hurt to validate the pages as well. Coming from a business that sells landing pages, I would expect the code to be compliant with today’s standards.
