Critique my detailing website please

**WillWashesCars** · 01-20-2014, 02:13 PM

I have been working on my detailing website for over a year now. Constantly revising, updating, and simplifying. Everything you see is done by yours truly. It is running off of Wordpress as a CMS and the theme is a heavily modified theme I chopped up and made my own. I have High School level education in programming (Html, Java, and CSS). So I am definitely no pro, and it took days to get it to pass W3C. But I think I finally am happy. Or close to being happy. What would you do differently? As a consumer or a professional.

I agree, definitely clean and professional looking. You're giving me motivation to go back in and change mine up.

pricing is up where it supposed to be, great photos. However, I would explain a bit more about certain auto detail steps. I see you had an iron remover on the tesla rims, maybe even a bit more pictures on the shop or certain tools

Thanks! And I look around on websites and graphic design forums daily. It helps motivate you to work and get everything going. I don't believe it needs to be fancy. Just effective.

That is somewhere where I am lacking right now. I completely redid the entire packages section yesterday and never finished. It was all on one page original and now I am running multiple pages. Definitely need to finish them before the big season begins again.

It looks really good. I would not be one to critique, but from a potential customer point of view it is easy to navigate which is a plus! I like it.

I really like the changes you made since you last asked for opinions.

The SEO is MUCH better.

The only thing I would do is add a little space between the headings of your 3 sections on the homepage.

For example, PAINT CORRECTION SPECIALIST
LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK increase the vertical gap between the rows.

Thank you! I really need honest critiques. It's hard to critique your own work and even harder to view from a potential clients perspective.

Are they overlapping on your web browser? I have had issues in the past with my code causing display issues. They are set to be only a few pixels apart, its sort of the visual style I was going for. And yes, I've definitely gotten better at optimization

Looks great nice job

**kevincwelch** · 01-20-2014, 07:38 PM

Looks very nice. It's easy to navigate, and if I were looking for a professional and using the website as a proxy, I'd send my car to you to detail. Thumbs up on those Teslas!
