I guess some people are going to say it doesn't matter... but it does. At least the Dixies website is a better... although you don't have to be very "corporate" to realise that 'cupcakes' is an overcrowded market.

Adding or omitting the apostrophe in the name was discussed on The Apprentice. I seem to remember she didn't want to add one because she wanted the name to feature in the web address. No excuse for other issues though. :) I agree it gives it an amateurish feel, but most customers won't be bothered about punctuation errors - they'll just go straight to the shopping cart.
It's interesting what business people can get away with. My boyfriend did some programming for someone who builds websites. He gets loads of work and employs quite a lot of freelancers. I visited his own website to take a look at the format and it was absolutely dreadful - I could have done far better myself. |
