I love the domain name and the website idea.

Design suggestions:
-Your header image takes a while to load, try compressing the image.
-The contact page is lacking design, an image would really bring this page to life.

Functionality suggestions:
-I signed up 20 minutes ago, still no email to verify my account.
-Your forms reset when an error occurs, look into 'html entities' in PHP.

SEO suggestions:
-Write more content and get as many keywords in there as possible.
-Your h2 and h3 tags are lacking specific keywords.
-Investigate keyword density.
-Create pages specific to each keyword/keyword phrase: Facebook likes, Twitter followers, etc.
-Get more links from different domains.

P.S. 25 minutes still no email

nice overall design. The page looks clean and easy to understand. The heading font on the page is a tiny bit pixelated but I am using a large monitor to view the website.

Thanks

Talking MrSS Review on FollowPlusLike.com

Design:
1. I agree to nathan.joshua, the header image takes a bit slow to load during the 1st time of visit. Kindly reduced its size so the file size will follow. But once it has been cached it's quickly loading.
2. The design of your interface looks like the same scheme of Twitter.

Navigation:
1. I love the steady navigation. This one is useful for not scrolling up or pressing the home button. Good. I know it's not hard to scroll up or press the Home button, however people are sometimes lame to figure it out. lol
2. I think you have double entry of homepage in your navigation. Both the Home button and FollowPlusLike button leads to homepage. I think one is enough.

Functionality:
1. I also notice the username and password field is not emptying every after failure or successful login. It must be resetting, like nathan.joshua pointed out.
2. After every login, the "311" figure in phrase "311 Users are rollin' with us." is jumping up, look:

Before logging-in


After logging-in

My observation that will affect your SEO:
1. Homepage duplicate content. I can access your website's homepage through the following links:
http://followpluslike.com/index.php?
http://followpluslike.com/index.php
http://www.followpluslike.com/index.php
http://www.followpluslike.com/index.php?
As for the other links, I can access all available pages with or without www in the beginning of URL and with out without question mark at the end of URL.

i.e:
http://www.followpluslike.com/contact.php
http://www.followpluslike.com/contact.php?
http://followpluslike.com/contact.php
http://followpluslike.com/contact.php?
http://www.followpluslike.com/register.php?
http://www.followpluslike.com/register.php
http://followpluslike.com/register.php?

The solution? 301 redirect.

2. Identical meta tags, description and keyword in every page. I notice all pages having the same meta tags, keywords and description. It should not be, for me that's a fine line to consider it as keyword stuffing. Put only keywords found in that page.

Some other things:
1. Why is the link in Order Now button is a shorten link? I'm curious why people are using it, because personally I don't like shorten URL.
2. I was wondering how would you come up with your logo, not mixing up those popular / trademark buttons of Twitter, Facebook and Google plus. Remember those were copyrighted.
That's my review.

Design suggestions:
I do really like your design, it looks great.
Recover password tab, the your email box is way to the left and not centered under the text.
After entering the wrong username and password, the homepage breaks a little. The number of people that "are rolling with you" is moved up between signup and username.

Functionality suggestions:
Signup process, it doesn't ask for much info which is great.
Contact tab, are you sure you don't need a spam protection?

The design doesn't have much substance at all to it, and I'm trying to decide if that's a good or bad thing. On the front page, the header looked really out of place and I was waiting for a bit to see if a background image was going to load or something.

I asked my friend reading next to me and she just said it looked boring.

Nice design, but probably no SEO optimized - I don't see a lot of readable text
Where is your privacy policy? This is important!
Loading 3 rows of online users seems excessive - how does this add value?
Excellent layout, clean, easy to navigate
You say "and we never do anything without your say so." - this is very vague and is not SEO optimized
