Great FX Business Cards is a site that produces business card templates. Is it worthy of the name “Great”? Let’s see.
From the moment you open the browser window, the site looks very professional and streamlined. The colors really help to accent the streamlined feel, especially the background that fades to white on the way down the pages. Using the side navigation bar, the site is fairly easy to navigate, although some of the pages do go down very far, so you have to scroll all the way back up to go back to the homepage. The navigation sidebar fits on one screen without scrolling, so I think it would be cool if they somehow got the navigation to smoothly follow you as you scrolled down the page. Other than that, the layout is similar to that of a blog and really easy to find what you are looking for on the page.
One thing that I like about the site is that they don’t try to get you to buy before you know about what you are going to be buying. There are articles on the site that not only tell you about their service and how to use it, but there are also articles about using business cards in general, about making a business card that people will want to hold on to, and even general business articles. These articles are helpful to anyone whether they become a customer or not. In the long run, I think that those articles will leave a good impression on people’s minds to make them more likely to purchase the business cards from Great FX. The products themselves look to be very high quality and to have a very professional look to them. You can design the cards online, or upload your own custom card, which is great for businesses that have their own distinct look and feel to them. The pricing is fair for when you are ordering lower amounts of cards, but when you order in large amounts you get awesome prices that are around $0.10 per card.
To me, it looks like this site does make the “Great” mark that is in it’s name. This is definitely a place that I would look if I needed to order large amounts of business cards, and I would recommend that for any of my business-owner readers: you should check it out too.
