Advantages: Great cards, website and ability to personalise the card

Disadvantages: None

Moonpig is one of my favourite websites for innovative content, it is basically a website through which you buy cards to send to people you care about on special occasions.

The real innovation with the site is that they have basic templates and you can change the text and sometimes add photographs too. I have found that this is really appreciated by recipients as it really personalises the card.

There is an incredible array of cards, from humourous to soppy, there are cards for birthdays, cards for anniversaries, cards for people leaving or people celebrating. The site is really well designed and allows you to read through all the cards fully.

Cards generally cost around £3.50 including postage to the recipient, they can be posted to you or the person you want to receive it. Once you have chosen the card you want, it takes you to the next page and allows you to amend the content and the font and size of the wording. Where appropriate there may be areas on the cover for a photo, this suits cards which look like newspaper headlines or magazines, you can add witty lines or really personal lines and include the recipients name if appropriate.

The cards look great, there is a great selection, you can pay by purchase, or you can put an amount into your account and whenever you buy anything, credit is simply taken from your account. Checkout is easy, you can add the recipients address and get to personalise the envelope too.

Once tyou have bought the card and organised postage, you are then asked if you want to remember the address and date and Moonpig will email you to remind you of the date of birthday, anniversary etc.

A really good website, good value and innovative product its just a shame the adverts are so annoying!!!
