Customer Reviews

Great budget site
I have had my Mr Site website for a while now and have had no major problems and any minor ones were sorted out quickly by their customer support.

It's not a site for those who know how to design sites themselves as there are other avenues that can give those people more options & I don't think Mr Site was ever designed for them. It is however brilliant for those of us who want a web presence on a budget that you can have control over. I turned to Mr Site after having paid a web designer a fancy price for a website, that took ages to materialise and then I had to keep paying them every time I wanted an amendment such as adding new stock! Mr Site has more than paid for itself for what I want and at less than £100 per year for the pro version it was basically set up within 24 hours, I can add stock whenever I want and put up whatever special promotion or links I want to without having to wait ages & pay through the nose for it to be done......yes I have to put my own time into it but adding stock takes minutes whereas with the professionally designed site it was at least days if not weeks before it was done in which time I could have been selling the stock.

A website can also look slick if it's just a simple site that you want providing you stay with a classic simple style template.

The problems seem to arise (talking to other users) when more experienced designers add extra features or already have artwork for logos as Mr Site is designed as a cheap website presence for those of us who know little or nothing about web design.

Other reviewers are right in that you can't back up the website but then I paste copies of each page into word documents & keep records of the options I used when setting up so incase I make a hash of something I can just copy the pages back in which I am prepared to expend the time to do because it is a cheap website presence that gives me control even with my limited level of computer knowledge.

I wholeheartedly recommend it as a first step at web pesence for those who don't know about web design & ideal for community groups,bands,event organisers and individual artists & photographers who need a basic portfolio showcase to direct customers to.

Great value for money!

mr site pro
Having had no experience with web designing before buying this i was a little nervous, but after a few hours tinkering i had actually produced a simple and reasonable website for my new business. I have noticed people reviewing saying that the cheaper Mr Site Packages may be better value, i do not agree, Mr Site Pro has the site optimization facility which enables you to get the site registered with Google & Yahoo to name a few. Once i had learnt about keyword placement and meta tags i actually managed to get my company on the first page on Google and 1st line 1st page on yahoo this has given me a huge advantage over other companies in my area all for £70.00 my previous place of employment paid hundreds for that privelage, obviously it is going to depend on your keywords but all in all i would recommend this package over the others if you want your site high up on the search engines

MR Site Pro Reviw
MrSite Pro offers an easy way for a small business to get into the world of online shopping. It has many useful features, particularly the ease at which stock can be removed and added. The "Word" style interface for inputing data is particularly welcome and easy to use.

Site boosting tools for search engines are very useful in placing you at the top of the pile for shoppers searches.

The only major drawbacks I have found with MrSite Pro are the tie into Paypal and the MRSite postage system. With MrSite Pro only using Paypal which seems very expensive to use, the MRSite Pro owner is somewhat limited for payment options, it would have been better to also offer direct tie in's with payment gateways such as Visa, rather than having to go through a middle man such as Paypal. The Postage system is fine but lacks flexibility, you have a set amount for each item or a final cost this is fine but doesn't allow for deals and flexibility.

Otherwise MRSite Pro is highly recommended for the small business user and can save your thousands on having a website created.
