Juwo, this is the most confusing thing I've ever looked at. I have a feeling the product is not very focused itself, and thus is hard to convey. If you can't convey it in a single page with a few terse sentences (ala skype.com), you might need to redesign and make it simpler.

I'm glad you're a Christian, but a company-about page is probably not the best place for pro/con links. It's distracting.

I really don't know how you would explain it, because I don't understand what your product is. Whatever your explanation is, it needs to be clear and concise, e.g. "Juwo is the easiest way to organize and share your recordings." The location of the diagrams on your website is the least of its problems - it is almost irrelevant. I would suggest first getting rid of about 90+% of the text on your frontpage.

squeeze more juice from your multimedia content

That doesn't mean anything.

I read that people dont want to click, but scrolling is ok - I thought that was the lecture at startup school? (I saw a breief note on it here on this site) the condensation is at the diagrams on the right. Should I move the diagrams left? I am stubborn about Jesus; even though I have lost a lot of good opportunities because of it.

I have no problem with scrolling ... but that doesn't mean you should try and cram more words on the page to explain what's going your website is about or how to use it. The harsh reality is that the vast majority of people won't make it through the first paragraph. I don't have all the answers ... but try making better use of headlines, images/diagrams, or a quick demo. Somebody should be able to visit your site and…

I have reorganized the page.

so tell me, how should I explain it? should I move the diagrams to the left, or just one column?

When I visit the site, I have these questions, in this order: (1) What is Juwo? (2) How do I get it? (Or get access) (3) How do I use it? (3) What can it do for me? Here's what happens when I visit the site: (1) What is Juwo? After scrolling up and down trying to make sense of the page, I gave up and just started reading from the top. After the first two sections I still am not quite sure what it actually is. I feel…

Please click on the demos. The software downloads and installs. It is desktop-web.

I have reorganized the page.
