About GoWorkIt:
GoWorkIt.com offers New York City businesses an instant solution to their staffing problems. Companies simply visit GoWorkIt.com’s website and submit a work request and members of GoWorkIt.com’s 3,000+ workforce who are available reply to that request. Thanks to GoWorkIt.com, employers can now find a suitable replacement worker within minutes – saving them from losing profits or overburdening other employees.
Based on viewing the homepage, I think this is a website for finding a job.
One of the most bothersome elements of this website is that the front page is too busy. I had trouble focusing on what the company does and I was distracted by the “new registered workers†and the “new jobs offers†section. They almost look like they’re an advertisement.  I do like the video link that talks about connecting workers to employers, I think that would look better if it took up the majority of the front page with only small links to the rest of the website’s content.
The “How Does It Work†page is witty, but there is too much text here. Shorten the anecdote, and make the entire page fit into one screen so that the user doesn’t have to scroll down. If the employer needs someone quick, they are going to want easy access to a solution, not a block of text with links at the very bottom of the page.
The sign up process looks easy enough and breaks down occupations and tasks into easy choies.
I would sign up for a free account.
This website is a great idea because it takes the overloaded mess of most job sites and focuses on a more narrow task.
My only advice would be to make this website look less template-y. I would create a simpler homepage and make the mission more clear.

A quick overview of the homepage showed that it was a place to find a short-termed gig.
Now go back to the site and comment on various elements of the site. What do you find bothersome? What do you like?
The color combination of your site looks great. Especially the video was very helpful. However, the sign in button only has links to “login†or “forgot passwordâ€.  I am not yet able to figure out where to register. My first instict would be to think that registration would be somewhere close to login. Was unable to find it immediately. Registration is already a hurdle for most people, and I think you should make it as easy as possible to get more users to sign up.
What do you think of the sign up process?
I found out where to sign in. But I could not figure out where to sign up. Or, at least to me, it was not immediately obvious.
Would you sign up for a free account? If not, why?
If I am looking for a job or seeking an employee and know for a fact that your service helps, i would sign up. Some examples would help.
How do you think the site compares to other similar sites/competitors like taskrabbit.com and snagajob.com?
They both look much more professionally run and manged than yours. Simple things, such as a phone number on task rabbits home page will drive more customers to it than to yours.
Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have.
Some testimonials would to a nice job of adding that extra “trust†factor to your new site. I would suggest getting some quotes from employers as well as job seekers.

Visit https://goworkit.com. Spend no more than 5-10 seconds on the home page. What do you think the site is about?
It appears to be a website for temporary workers.
Now go back to the site and comment on various elements of the site. What do you find bothersome? What do you like?
I found the color scheme to be attention grabbing but the website was odd to navigate. The video was helpful as was the How Does It Work Page.
What do you think of the sign up process?
I think the log in option on the front page is confusing. Once you find the sign in it is quite easy but hard to navigate.
Would you sign up for a free account? If not, why?
If I lived in large urban area I would consider it.
How do you think the site compares to other similar sites/competitors like taskrabbit.com and snagajob.com?
I found both those sites easier to navigate and more professional in appearance.
Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have.
I would like to see it easier to navigate and some feedback from satisfied users would go a long way in keeping folks interested and using it.
