i1254.com is a convenient search engines companion tool, which grouped
almost 80 world-class search engines into ONE simple user-interface. Targeted region specific search and provide a smooth way to search through news and current issues, it is not mean to be a competitor to turboscout.com or bjorgul.com, but rather an extra option to the net-citizens. As i1254.com was designed to target to different market
segment.
I developed the site some 2++ years ago which the prototype was really ugly(No color, no graphics....arrrgh!!), out of the opinion that I never get accurate search results after top 10 lists on any of the search engine I use, not to mention flip to second page for another 20++ results. Hence, it was frustrated to switch accross different search engines to obtain more accurate results.
That was the main cause of why I put in into the web for public use.
More importantly, I need constructive suggestions on why would a visitor stick to my site, I mean under what circumstances will you visit i1254.com and stay long??
As to the best of my understanding, people surf the web are either coming for an application(like using search engine, emailing, gaming, chat, mp3, auction....) or content(like articles, news, products info....), but rarely for shopping.
i1254.com falls into application category. Consequently, I need
critiques, be it good or bad, on how I can improve the usability as well as user experience with i1254.com
Thank you...
