Where are the great animated home page we had "Safe  Secure  Sound"  ?
any feedback why it is removed?  ( @cass )

http://bitshares.org/

discussed with toast to disable it, cause we're thinking most of users don't like this frontpage^^

Well maybe you guys are thinking not like the majority of users... How can we know that your thinking is matched with the majority of users?
Why don't you ask the forum members before changes like that? Make a poll first here to have a right feeling! Maybe it was not the best home page in existence but it was great and much better than the current one... but maybe I am wrong ... and you are right... but I would take feedback first from this community and would not ignore them! Make a poll and act accordingly please.

Doing every little thing by consensus is too inefficient.  We need to develop rules on minor actions that can be performed by representatives (without consensus ) and major actions that require a grass roots vote.  I suppose as DPOS evolves these rules will emerge.

yes couldn't say it better  +5%

if we want to poll every decision before acting then this would decrease our dev process significantly IMO

Should we move the 'DOWNLOAD' menu item to the first spot?

MERCHANTS
NEWS
TV
BLOG
DOWNLOAD
MORE…

Currently it follows two menu links - NEWS and TV that take you to external sites - with no easy way to return to BitShares.org, I think DOWNLOAD should come before MERCHANTS.

Also, the BitShares FAQ  http://bitshares.org/faq/ page which is prominently displayed on R/BitShares FAQ http://www.reddit.com/r/BitShares/comments/2edvtk/rbitshares_faq_newcomers_please_read/ is nowhere to be found via the BitShares.org site menu, most likely because it is so out of date. It should probably be updated and linked to in the menu, or if the wiki etc. is better for this sort of thing maybe it should be removed altogether. Considering it is the first hit on Google for BitShares FAQ, it would probably be best to have it updated and incorporated into the MORE area of the menu.

btw, @xeroc on your R/BitShares FAQ you link to the outdated Fee Flow image (BTSX), there is a more recent one somewhere.

site will completely get redefined! Pls join the discussion on nullstreet ... Method-x is in charge of new site now ...

Mobile Responsive is def important for SEO.  The smaller the site file is the better.  Speed of loading site is equally important.

SEO is a non-issue. Mobile optimization and speed is important if you're targeting long-tail keywords. When people search for "bitshares", bitshares.org will always be the first result in Google.

Site load speed is one of the top on site factors for ranking factors according to numerous analysis reports regardless of long tail or short tail.

SEO for bitShares is irrelevant. The only keywords that matter are 'bitshares', 'bitusd' and 'bitgold'. Even if you do manage to rank for keywords such as "online banking" (which won't happen after panda and penguin) you won't get a conversion event from it. What keywords are you trying to rank for and why?

Another great looking site.

http://test.casheer.net/

Within a few seconds, I know what's going on with the product.

Would like to hear some comments on this site's approach.
