Justus Roux Web Site Review
Author: Justus Roux
URL:http://www.justusroux.com

Rating: 4 Stars
Reviewer: Mireya Orsini
Justus Roux's website opens to a simple and straightforward home page, in which all the relevant links are lined up on the right hand side of the screen. The pertinent adult content warning is placed in a visible spot. The website is set in a rather pleasant color combination of dark red, with salmon as the main background color, and it has a single picture of what happens to be one of my favorite romantic paintings titled Il Bacio, by Francesco Hayez. This is a painting that I am sure most visitors to the website will recognize.
Ms. Roux has set individual pages for her available work, with clickable links to her current books. Upon opening each one of those links, the visitor will find a picture (be it the cover or some other erotic pictorial), blurbs, and a link to purchase the book. She has also set individual links to excerpts of her work.
Further down, the visitor will find links to other erotica authors, a link to a free ongoing serial (gotta love a good freebie!), details about submissions of stories and poetry for book compilations (the new anthology Who's Your Daddy? is an example, as it features short stories from several authors), and lastly, links to where you can purchase her books, her CafePress store, a section for links, contest and her newsletter, and finally, a link to her bio and another one to contact her.
Overall, the website is simple, pleasant to the eye, and it is not overwhelmed with graphics which could make the loading of the pages difficult for those using dial-up connections. The site contains all the relevant information that could interest readers wanting to find out more about the author and her work. As far as I could see, it is up to date, which is something I always appreciate when visiting websites. The only thing that I didn't quite like was that I had to center the page with my browser's bottom scroll bar, to be able to have the links visible. I have visited Ms. Roux's website several times since I found out about her work quite a while back, and I do intend to continue doing so.
