Entrepreneur.com Redesign Launches Today

great one a d definitely worth checking out ;)

Hi there, it all looks flashy and young, but for me it is way to much 'noise' and hard to read the articles.

The re-design is good, easy, modern and officiant. 

I came back to the site to purchase one of your Business Manuals but have been searching for an hour??? I have purchased in the past and only trust your manuals. Where are they??????? I am very disappointed or show me the way?

i like the redesign. 

Awesome update the articles more often 

amazing

I like the layout but half the articles that come up in searches are not here anymore.

So much better!

Love it!

Why did we bother paying for a classified ad on your site when there isn't even a link to the classified section on your home page anymore?  

Refreshed is confusing and boring................boooo!!

Great Job with the new design....It was a refreshing surprise.

I have only surfed the newly designed site for a few minutes now, and my first impression was that it seemed more professional and up to date. The menu systems seems clear and easy to use.

It looks just like a blogger or wordpress theme now!

I think before you put new articles on you need to find someone whose sole job it is to DE-BUG THESES ARTICLE'S !!!! I am constantly running into articles that cause screen freeze or failure to load prompts. If I can't read the article, no matter how fancy the re-make, the article does me absolutely no good. I've switched from WiFi to hardline, from hardline to a local T1 and even a commercial T1 line, all with the same result's. And I've done it on 3 seperate systems. Can someone please get the bug exterminator out and doing their job ?

Love it, I notice you all always have people and stories about how successful each entrepreneur is. I have a person that you might be interested in using. I can be found at http://fiveashrenovations.com Derrick Fiveash owner/operator of Fiveash Renovations. I created my website for my home improvement business and aim to set the bar. We have a Facebook, You-tube,  and twitter page for his business and much more. Think he would go great in an issue. Also I am a local fire fighter. Every job I do I make a You-tube video to show a job from start to finish.

More clean, more organize, more easy to read, maybe I would like a little red, yellow or orange in the header. Me encanta!

I found the previous version much more bolder and attractive, this seems a bit stale, flat....

Okay. On the plus side no more annoying splash page. It's much cleaner. Tab section on homepage much better functionally. Liked the bigger ones but this works and that's key. Also more of them. It's easier to navigate. All in all i'd say you got it right. Not too much flashiness. Great functionality. Well done. I know some stuff may not work for a while but i know you'll get there.

It's not really very unique (kinda looks like a Wordpress theme), but I like it better than the old one. Very clean and usable.

I think it s----.  Poor move.

You broke all your links. A little smart work by web-site manger could solve that.

I love it. It has a more professional look and retains its visual appeal. Great job on the redesign.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it......why the revamp again?

awesome. i like the success stories

Really nice new design. Much easier to navigate than the old site. reminds me a little of mashable! congrats

Save the volume level so I dont have to set the volume again when watching the next video.

Put in some red.

It looks amazing! Much easier to read articles now ;)

The new design looks like a wordpress theme, you all can do much better! I'm not saying it is a wordpress theme, but it sure looks like one... smh.

The new design is sophisticated and well organized. I like it !

I really like the new site.  It was immediately better. 

Just checked the RSS feed today and it still hasn't been changed.

The new Entrepreneur layout and design has a fresh look and feel to it. It appears to follow the same design as FastCompany, but with more of an open feel.

Change is hard for most people to accept! In some ways, you've improved the original website.  In other ways, you've lost out on the fluff, which some people regard as color.  What's interesting here is that this site is a reference point for many entrepreneurs.  So, the use of excessive color, is not really that important.  Personally, I like finding article clips on topics which I find interesting and helpful. There's a sayig: "When you realize that you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it."  In my opinion, however, I don't think you've erred so seriously as others have indicated.  Of course, everyone has a right to their opinion.  But your risk at change is what entrepreneurialship is all about at its core.  Good for you!  You're trying!  Give yourself a good pat on the back. I point others to recognize how super large computer companies put out a version of something and then make corrections to it from public feedback creating a newer version.  Entrepreneurs need to pay attention to this process.  Perfection is not the goal.  Excellence is the goal! You can only be perfect one time in a lifetime!  All else afterwards is downhill.  So, let's not be too hard on the team at Entrepreneur for putting forth an effort to make things better.  Let's just help them make what they've done -- a good job -- a bit better, a tad bit more excellent. When I as a magician/illusionist/master balloon craftsperson do an event or item of interest, I always learn things about making things better.  Perhaps my willingness to attempt different things, at times, helps me make things even more entertaining for next time. We entrepreneurs must applaud efforts at change.  It takes guts.  It takes spirit.  It takes passion.  It takes creative energy. Do not go backwards.  Keep moving forward.  Take the positive opinions of the many entrepreneur friends of this site and think carefully about those suggestions.  Stick with this new exciting plan.  And make the next version of it richer within reason while keeping in mind the overall purpose of this site.  It is a reference tool to those who are serious entrepreneurs.  Let's not get too far away from that core purpose. I am Merlin:  A brand which I have now rebuilt over sixteen and a-half years.  I am seeking opportunities to share my talents with corporate america at their many functions and events.  Do you want to reach me?  Here's my email: merlin.magic@hotmail.com

the space between your nav bar and your content is occupied by an ADD? WTF? That is the #1 web design mistake. Well maybe not #1 but up there.  To be honest everything is cleaner but you have way way way less information "above the fold" (the space that is visible without scrolling). Change that and you will fix all these complaints. 

Initially I didn't like the new design but I have gotten used to it now... I thought the red gave it a better edge though.

good stuff

I'm loving it. I Think initially people will have a negative response,because they have to get used to something unfamiliar to them. Once they get over the initial shock I'm sure they'll appreciate how much better information flows on this site. I do miss the red from the old site though.

Good job, nice design.

I'm not too sure what people are talking about here.  The new design is way better. 1. How is the new site difficult to navigate?  Seriously, scroll to the top and hover over categories. 2. The color makes you want to stick around for a while.  The old red was unsettling, while the new blue is more relaxing.  3. The brand will be fine.  I guess people have the get use to change, but I love the changes to the site. The social media buttons in the header are clean but stand out, perfect.  I will be visiting the site more frequently, I'm glad you guys did this.

I hate the new look and don't know what you were aiming at but you definitely missed the target. 1. The new site is harder to navigate because of the font and poor navigation bar. 2. The site color scheme looks boring and does not provoke interest, please tell your designers to read book on color association ( Recommend the book, Color- messages & meanings by Leatrice Eisman) 3. It kills the brand! Coco Cola and sprite can change color schemes and slogans at will, but you're a magazine! I have two words for your design staff, " Stop it!!!!!!"

I'm torn. I'm an advocate of simple design but the original design was unique in a world of sameness. I, as well as others understand the move to create/use this format. I will get use to it and not even recall what the other site look like but it will take a minute. Kudos for not standing still, just remember it will take some time for your readers to adjust.-Daryl Stinson @ facebook.com/darylstinson

I also miss the red and this design is less attractive than the previous one, it like doesn't call your attention.

Oftentimes, a website redesign leaves me lost and confused on how to find the key things I'd grown accustomed to reading regularly. However, this redesign is a very good one...Thank You!

Anyone who doesn't like the new design is living in the past. The old "theme" was completely outdated, and quite frankly, unappealing.

I think this design is simple, clean and easy on eyes. Can focus on content rather than colours everywhere. New design is better. Believe the words of a web developer.

The old design was much easier to use and was simple, the re-design will take a bit of time getting use to. Kinda looks more like a blog than a magazine site now.

Old design was much better. 

..Fresssh....!!  :)

Looks great!

finally, it looks so much better

I like it a lot better.

Well done.

I miss the red. And I'm guessing this was redesigned to work better on a smaller screen, maybe for mobile? It will take some getting used to. The old design looked more magazine-like, this one makes you realize you're on the web. I don't know if I like that. It's not bad, anyway, but I didn't see anything wrong with the old one.

BRING BACK THE OLD FORMAT! BRING BACK THE OLD FORMAT! BRING BACK THE OLD FORMAT! BRING BACK THE OLD FORMAT! BRING BACK THE OLD FORMAT!

The noisy video ads are very unpleasant, the general look is nice though.

The old design was a lot better than this.

The design looks more like a blog than before which looks like more than a blog...Anyway, i like the new design and the color.

The old design was much easier to navigate.

Hate it!  It looks very boring and drab... Where is the color?  It looks like so many other business sites on the web. Be unique, Be different!  The site should be reflective of the spirit and personality of a true Entrepreneur..  Risk taking, daring, unpredictable,bold, heroic...  I don't get that feeling when I click to this site. I feel "bored" like I'm in an online library ) : Where's the e- "X"-it?

Liked the previous design better. It was like a well thought out kitchen island one may find in the home of a world class chef, all things were organized and easily accessible. With this spread out new design accessibility goes by the wayside.

Very clean and organized. A good improvement. I like the freshness of the layout. Keep it up. 

Love the new design! Much easier to navigate and overall a cleaner, fresher and up to date layout! Kudos!

Love the new clean look, quite refreshing

The new design looks clean. It should be easy to get accustomed with navigating the new design. But let me tell you that I am missing the color red theme. Maybe you should switchback as far as the color is concerned. I think the new design color looks dull IMHO (I am talking about the COLOR only). I think it should still be Red.

I hate the new design, I can't find the business forums. Everything just seems to clustered or too big. Idk just a thought.

The new design is awful, I cannot find anything! all the annoying articles written by text broker are there but I can't seem to find the forums! This new design makes it hard to find something that where once easy!!!

The new cleaner design should make it much easier to view on mobile devices and tablet computers. Nice job Entrepreneur.

Very nice upgrade - reminds me of Mashable. This will def. increase the # of articles being read.

Very much liking the new design, I might have to borrow a few bits of inspiration!

It looks great, but it's way slower!

I love the streamlined and "clean"look of the new site. KUDOS. Lisa Manyon 

Point taken Mark. We're going to adjust our RSS feeds to show more of the story for readers today. So hit refresh on your reader in about an hour!

Very nice new look for entrepreneur.com website. Keep up providing us the latest trends in Entrepreneurial world.

I love the new site. Much cleaner. Good job. Adrienne Graham Hues Consulting & Management Inc. http://www.huesconsulting.com 

refreshing!!

What a copy of AllBusiness.com (http://www.allbusiness.com). You'd think you could come up with something original...

A clean new look, nice one there!

Entrepreneur.com has always been a great site. The new one looks even better. :) One thing that I noticed is that you all do no development on the RSS Feeds. A lot of us use this medium to stay on board with your articles. Right now the RSS feed only shows one single sentence and I have to click on the article directly in order to see more information. This is a huge headache when I'm viewing your feeds on a mobile device (I use Google Reader as my mobile feed). You should provide more information in the feeds or either just allow the whole article to be read in a single feed. Otherwise, whats the point in having them available?

Hi Henry, Thanks for your feedback. We're working on it.

Looks fantastic! Great job and thank you! -Reilly Newman CEO / Graphic Designer, Zangaroo Designs

The combination of rss that is not the full article and the sight being rather heavy make my mobile experience practically unbearable. I mostly read my news through RSS  and most of the time I will skip the Entrepreneur.com articles I see in my feeds because I am loath to load the site on my phone.  I was hoping the redesign would lighten the page weight so Entrepreneur would be more mobile friendly. If t is lighter it is not enough to make the experience enjoyable on my iPhone. Simple solution put the whole article in the RSS and add some RSS ads.

Thanks, Brandon. The mobile edition is coming soon. Working out some kinks.

Very streamlined design...I especially like that the clutter is gone!

I like the redesign. I've had no page load issues or any of the other problems described above. The layout and colors are really nice on the eyes and the flow of the page is substantially better than before. However, you could still do without the pop-up ads and the pop-up article suggestions.

I tihnk it is great... I didn't have any trouble as two of the other posts talked about.

The new site is cleaner and easier to navigate, but it lacks the edge that previously complimented your brand.  I hope you will consider making a few changes to bring back the dynamism that I loved about the previous design.

The design seems to be improved but any other changes been made to site? encountering a page load issue!

Do us all a favor and go back to your Beta tester and smack'em around. It took me over 5 minutes just to get to this point. Multiple page re-loads, blank screen's, re-rout's, the list could go on. New and improved is great when it is done for a reason, not just to show us all that it can be done. Dog and Pony is for politics, not business. Just go ask for the Pet Rock to see the result's.

Definitely an improvement, but where's the mobile version?

I'm really impressed with the new redesign. I've had Entrepreneur.com as my homepage since a year now and always thought the design/UX was awful. Good job!
