Good Stats, Low Sales

I agree that I don't like the homepage
Not saying that it is "bad" but it doesn't get the message across at all. It's not an obvious store at first glance.

Do you like it better now? I know I need to remove page titles, but I gotta figure that one out

Way better. Still, I feel, too much white space especially up top. Things are too far down the page. I have to scroll to see the very first thing.

I made some more changes yesterday. I added some product sliders to the home page and made free shipping much more prominent on the page.
I still need to fix the header and make better usage of space. I also need to change the "Shop" buttons to something that matches the theme.

Your thumbnails are way too big. I'm browsing it on a 1920x1080 monitor and they are huge, think what would happen with a mobile view. This is what is giving you all this scrolling. Tighten up Takahasi.
Your individual pages are way too compressed to one side. Again, I am on 1920x1080, but it seems you designed the site around 1024x768 hard. Make it dynamically render and adjust to resolution. Combine this with the thumbnail reduction, should be an easier method of browsing the site.
Your "free shipping" is where your logo should be, your logo is where your header should be. Free shipping notification should be relegated to the individual item pages and not front and center on the site. Everyone offers free shipping, it's pretty much expected nowadays. Although if you undercut others deeply enough, I would say it's worth a shot to not offer it. You only have 40 items or so, no point in trying to play with the big boys when you are just starting out.
That's my take on it.

Does it look any better now, PSX? I made some changes

What are you using to create your pages? a CMS software or HTML editor?

I know this is an old thread, but would you guys take another look at the site and give me some feedback. I have changed the site quite a bit in the past 30 days.
I would like feedback on the desktop and mobile site.

Looks good on desktop for me!

That is way better now! Do you see sales increasing?

A little bit, but fishing is out of season right now. There are small markets that are year round, but even in Florida its the off season right now. I am trying to triple my inventory within the next 30 days. I need to be ready for March. That is when the peak season starts.
Even the most hardcore fishermen like my neighbors and I haven't fished in nearly a month. The weather, wind, and water temperature is just really bad right now. We generally fish together twice a week and we also fish once or twice a week by ourselves
