We appreciate any feedback you and the time you have or will take in reviewing
1) A lot of space, above the fold is being waisted.
2) A small Login link with a drop down containing the fields when someone clicks on this link.
3) Move the search box above the fold.
4) Use a different font for the headline.
5) The logo is taking much more space then it should, on a typical website.
The design looks quite clean and non active.
I like the logo, it matches the domain name, but would be better to be a bit smaller.
You could add on the search box a "predictive search"
You should also point out a bit more the search box and make it a bit bigger.
I agree with ankit, there is a ton of wasted space above the fold. Since you only have the one search function on the home page, you should bring it up above the fold. When I get there, one of the first things I see is a login signup form. If you have two goals for people coming to the home page (i.e. signing up and/or typing in card info, you should delineate them on the page. For example have the search on the left and the login/signup on the right. One heading could be “Search for Cards” and the other could be “create a free account”.
Your logo takes up way too much space and violates the basic web convention of being in the top right hand corner. I would make it smaller and move it up and out of the way of the main content.
Also, I don’t see any main site navigation. Not sure if that is by design or not.
The design looks a tad dated, i`d say it needs some more contrast there; lots of space are wasted, for the first page with what you have there you shouldn`t have scrolling, it`s not very user friendly. The logo is maybe too big, the headline's color should be different to pop... etc. You over-complicated a simple thing. Keep in mind people want simple, look at Google search page.
