User Experience
Doctors Foster and Smith offer a great homepage with many navigational options. We love the product pages that open serious dialogues with the customers. These are the same types of conversations that are carried over to their extensive social media profiles. Unlike a lot of sites, though, their conversation with customers seems to be genuine, not just another marketing platform. Product pages are great, giving detail, related articles, FAQ's and testimonials for every product. 'How-to' videos on the site are good, like, "How to clean your dog's ears." They offer speedy purchasing as well; with just three clicks, checkout is faster than a greyhound after a squirrel.
