Beautiful photos, of course, you've got great scenery to work with!

Right off the bat, I see that none of your pages have Titles. This is very important. Make it descriptive. It will help people find you in the search engines.

I was wondering why you did not continue using the Lightbox feature on the Featured Listings photos? It's tedious clicking, closing, clicking, closing, to view each photo. Be consistent.

Lastly for now, when I scrolled sideways on your homepage, there is a small logo that is pasted in there that looks like you forgot to delete.

I too, love Blue Voda and Voda Host. So glad I switch to them. I've completed 5 websites, the last being www.PropertySlides.com. Always thinking of new ideas for more.

Hi, nice looking layout & easy to use. Couple of things that might need a look at?
The menu jumps about when moused over from one size text to another or from normal to bold. (Bit annoying)
Could do with the menu in different colours to make it stand out, especially the background, as it mingles in with the pages text on the drop downs.
On the http://www.caribbeanhomefinder.net/t...lifestyle.html page, the menu wants bringing to the front as the drop downs go behind the images.
On some of the pages like turks-caicos-property-pfsc8yac***lub.html you have used iframes. Although this keeps the page looking neat, it is not very SE friendly.
You have also made a large amount of text the same colour as the page. The SE’s are wise to this & you will end up getting blacked.
Most of your pages need to be named with titles & also inserting keywords & descriptions in the page properties area.

Good luck.

Like your site, two things though, your scrolling banner is alittle too fast and jerky, hard to read. The other is on the pull downs for cantact and featured properties you need to have a box behind them, they are hard to make out, and impossible on some pages. Good luck, I'd like to retire there.
