Grade the Website.

I cannot read the language so I can only comment on the graphics of the site. The site looks fairly good, their isn't an overload of images to look at like some sites. However, that's a LOT of whitespace on the left hand side.

0. I did not understand what it is. Can't read the language. 1. Calendar starts from 1391 which to me was interesting. Although no idea which calendar it is. 2. The images like the city and the guy with phone look stretched. 3. "Forgot your password?" is barely readable. 4. I can see a little square near right top which opens a menu. Not sure what that is, but I guess it's bug. 5. Language options, please.

The language is not the point , you can use google translate if you like. The point is its services: Online shop: http://www.ataland.com/Pages/Shop/Products.aspx[^] Online hotel reservation: http://www.ataland.com/Pages/OnlineHotel/OHotels.aspx[^] World's hotels up-to-date information: http://www.ataland.com/Pages/FnHotel/SearchHotelN.aspx[^]

It is for decoration and it is a link also.

I can't read Persian but am from Pakistan and have worked on a few Urdu sites where RTL is the main direction. from TOP: Menu could use a separator between Links Login box is not properly visible Put the Hotel Searcher box (or whatever it is) to the Left Side if possible Darken the GRAY text, the smaller fonts make it a bit harder to read Some background to the site would be good, like some texture or something else light colored.

I like it. It is not a super-duper travel/resort reservation site, but it looks good. - even if I do not read farsi, I find the text to be on the small side and not contrasty enough ( not dark enough). - It is a bit "weird" that (some of) the images (at least the one I saw) feel a lot more "european" than either Arabic or Persan; who is the target clientele ? Iranians ? "Arabian" ? Europeans ? another weird thing, Are the "Coleman" (camping stuff) links really useful on a tourist site like this ? Are people in your area really interested in buying a portable camping gaz burner when traveling? M.

If you are asking people for feedback who come from various language backgrounds, it does. If I as a user has to say something about the website, I need to know the language.

Which year is it currently in Persian calendar? If it's like 100 years after 1391, you might want to change that date picker.

Not good. Put a proper menu or something else. It's just plain out of place for me.

I like the fact that the colors relate well with the banner image. As for the content it seems a bit busy except for the left column ( it's sparse). Other then that I say well done.:thumbsup:

I also don't speak anything other than English, but I think the layout is very good and the images look nice. :thumbsup:
