Name of Site/Business: BookPriceCheck.com
Site's Main Purpose: Ecommerce/Sales
Please Review the following:
Does the home page sufficiently convince people to go further into the site?
Does/can the site achieve its main purpose?
Navigation. Is it clear and easy to understand?
Appearance/Attractiveness
Typos and grammar
Images failing to load
Is the Contact, Privacy and Legal information adequate in relation to main purpose of site?
Search engine marketing. Can the pages be reasonably well indexed by search engines?
Additional Comments/Notes
Thanks for everybody taking a look and helping me with ideea / information! Right now we only have 8 real-time search agents to query the book prices from different stores, but we will add more in the very near future. Also, I am aware the site it's a little slow (since we make real-time http queries to other sites to get the book prices), we will upgarde to more powerfull hardware and more bandwith soon.

Clean looking site, easy to figure out and navigate. I would maybe add a litttle something at the top, maybe in with your logo about why a visitor would want to find a book at your site, what seperates your site from say Amazon.com?
As a visitor I'm diggin the idea of searching for the best price for the book I'm looking for but I just don't feel exicited about hitting that search button, maybe try to bring a little more attention to it and try to entice the visitor to click it. How is hitting that search button goint to make me feel? Am I going to be blown away by the dirt cheap prices that I find once I hit that button? Will baby kittens die if I don't hit that search button? Give me a reason lol.
Another thing I just thought of, which you may already be doing so I apologize if I'm preaching to the choir on this, but your in a market that is pretty competitive on the internet, you're up against giants like ebay and amazon. You should find a certain niche of books to go after in the search engines, you have a good selection of titles there so do a little research in the search engines to see what titles are being searched for without a huge number of websites competing for that keyword. For instance I typed in "mein kampf" and had several books about that pop up, now I'm not saying go after the neo-nutzi niche but I'm sure there are plenty of titles like that that other sites aren't actively going after that you can start generating hits for fairly quickly.
