Thread: My new website! New look! Need comments!

Hello everyone,

Haven't been on in a while, I try to keep up from time to time. Any howsers, as you probably noticed I've gone away from a company and just into a personl web development website.

I've been working on a new look and would appreciate some honest comments. Now I don't want any spelling corrections as those I will fix myself, and there may be broken links as I am still working on it, but honest comments would be nice as I complete the website.

Thanks!

LOL.. webdevelopment doesnt work

There seems to be an error. You have been re-directed back to the home page. If this error occurs many times you may contact me. It will help me resolve the problem. Thank you!

none of the side links work.. all give errors. Hackersafe is chopped off on your portfolio page, your complete transaction doesnt work. BTW are you using hacker safe on your site?

Karen

oHH.. all of your page descriptions are

<meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="The Internet. Your next work space.">

Nobody is going to search for you by name, except locally and those you give a card to! You dont want my honest opinion, as you will have to jog out for kleenex!

Dont make me macsmack basic SEO to you!

I like the softened look, and the brevity, but feel the abbreviated images project too much of an unbalanced perspective. Perhaps they were cropped with a personal view in mind, but nowadays, I feel the effective use of images will only gain importance and how they "anchor" content and compel conversion......were visitors allowed to see (experience, personally invest in, understand) more, or to have a 'broader' conceptual linkage to your direction, you might be better served with more 'complete' or less generic/bland images. Just a perspective!

Interesting that we both seem to be going back to our "roots" so to speak. I have recently ressurrected a business with a twist of my own, and am already experiencing a great deal of satisfaction, despite the fact I am still loading as well.

Good luck, General!

< ducking a MacSmack of my own for delving into SE-unfriendly Flash >

Flash has a place, even in seo and marketing, however, that music sucks.

Karen

Turn it off, or tune the site out!

(I am not planning on casual client development from random traffic: this is purely driven by my own traditional marketing efforts to a specific market segment. I enjoy being able to pick and choose my customers, Karen......and I simply do not hear the chatter along the fence!)

Kinda grumpy, girlfiend.....harumph!


Good Going, Jeremy.......now hurry up and finish, will you?
LOL

Jeremy, NiceDesign. Good for you. I'll agree with you fixing your writings a tad .. I think I noticed something else, lol, I'd have to look again, I forget what it was ...

lmfao.. HIJACKING Jeremys thread..

Vasili.. you should give me that OPTION if you really want to keep not just me, but LOTS of customers.. Lot of your market will be at work, and honestly, they will TUNE it off with the X key and look elsewhere. I can live with the rest of it.. wish your menu was slightly larger as its dwarfed by the size of the site, I think u could tweak it up a bit visually, and I know you took the steps to make it seo friendly.. think you should post an html version to show that side of your skills too!

Karen

That's a rather "Nice MacSmack" isn't it Karen, LOL ...

ooops sorry Jeremy, further hijacking underway, lol ..

(I dunno....a smack is a smack, especially when you're not expecting one....it wasn't supposed to be my site being "reviewed")
Didn't see the volume button at the bottom, did you? No Matter....and no, I really do not concern myself with transient traffic to this site....it is only there as a point of contact for those driven there. Period.

Sorry, Jeremy.....maybe Our Leading Lady will edit your thread to the pristine thing it once was?

LOL.. Holly, I wasnt REALLY smacking, just honest since he directed my attention there. And I really wasnt smacking Jeremy either as i can do that in pms everyday.. and he likes it.
(secretly Eric likes it too, wink)
Karen

Haha, nah! The comments are much appreciated so talk all you want. I should be finished this by Saturday/Sunday.

I will let you know guys, thanks.

The "Unsuspecting MacSmack" lol .. yes that lil' devil can 'neak up on ya .. lol ..

LOL at you Karen, "I wasn't really smacking" lol
No my dear ... you were "MacSmacked" lol .....

Oh, ok, sporting of you Jeremy

Hard to read. Texts almost transparent.

Haha, good one :P .. I was just trying to make a look, but now I gotta think of the blind ones right? :P .. haha .. I will make a darker gray!

Put something transparent object at the bottom of the page. So can scroll down more, to avoid ending at the bottom edge of screen.

To the links you mean?

Yes, put something transparent underneath there, noone can see. just to make the page can be scrolled down a little bit more; like the bottom of this page, the page numbers are at least 5mm above the edge.

At the moment, I am working on darkening the text on each page as well as making the pages bigger below, then I will make my way to most of your comments.

Hey

I am starting to darken the text all over and make the page bigger below for more room. I've added more content on certain pages and there is still more to come.
