Why is this website hosting sales ugly?

jure12jure12 Member
in General

I stumbled across this website that sells VPS and Dedicated servers in Amsterdam.
Look at how ugly it is made;
https://skb-enterprise.com/nvme-vps/

It's like it's only optimized for smartphones and not a normal monitor screen.
If I were selling servers and VPS, I would be ashamed to have such an optimized site.

    I think it serves its purpose, but it will probably get an update eventually. Many hosting companies just get something up for legal purposes, etc. It's not so much to showcase how pretty their website is, it's just to have a functional website to get the banking and billing approved. Not much else, IMHO...

    It doesn't matter as long as there's good deals. Heck if the website is like MzunguHosting if it provides $3/yr with IPv4 and good specs I will still bite

    Some of the "Bussiness Websites" out there still have the footer links with href="#" from the HTML templates their designer downloaded.

    Yup, they honestly don't care. As long as it passes the compliance check, it's all good.

    It will still make sales regardless.

    Probably they dont care because they still get more and more sales anyway.

    Speaking from own experience. Mine is shit too. It was made 5 years ago to replace a even more shit one but hopefully get some time this year for a proper remake

    In April will restock 96 dedicated Servers (exact amount, purchase done) and i doubt Stock will last long. 1-2months maybe. 3 ... If bad which i currently highly doubt

    Thanks for sharing your expert design critique! We actually ended our hosting activities after selling them recently, so the page has now been replaced with a placeholder. We appreciate your keen eye!

    I wasn't aware you were exiting. However, I did see some great deals on eBay for some of your hardware.

    Hahaha ... https://mzunguhosting.ml/

    I like their fake chat in the bottom right corner and their web site music is for cumming dude !

    .and google chrome still gives me an error 'SyntaxError: line 484' while listening to their bum bum hit music.

    it just throws me a new erro:

    ... I guess their website was made by some misunderstood artist.
    I believe with this kind of design and artistry they have great sales (not to mention syntax errors).

    You are welcome. As far as I can see, SpectraIP has bought your company.
