    Check out my website please!

    Just finished it and have it at about 90% where I want it. I used Weebly, it was good, but some things in the editor and when it is published are different, The logo placement is one of the issues. Im going to go on Fiverr to get something for a quick fix in the meantime look for some alternate route.

    Here is what I need to work on, anything you guys suggest please advise!

    Need a logo,
    Want to get a picture of me on the about page
    Need to work on and hone in on SEO
    Need to fill in the contacts page Feel like there is to much space missing on the right side

    I just sat waiting for something to happen then left your site. (Like most of your customers)

    Why isn't there any content on your homepage?

    It's a splash page. The menu button is to the right. Taking a different approach.

    I would not suggest doing this and follow web design principles. The point of your website is to sell your services, I tried to use your website and didn't/couldn't figure it out and now another detailing business has my business.

    Make it easy to use and navigate.

    This does not work one bit.

    You have to have a sense of navigation when visitors hit your page.

    It doesn't mean spend 10 hours mocking up a homepage.

    But you most def will need to have some content on there.

    But please, don't spend more than a couple hours.

    You'll probably get less than 500 people to visit your site in the next 6 months.

    Remember if someone is actively looking for a detail in my experience at least, something has gone wrong with their ride lol. Throw up, spill, various disasters, etc.

    The other case is that they just want to take good care of their car. I like to have on the front page a "special" to get them to the price page while also some supplementary info.

    Websites need to be easy to navigate and read this is not. Most people will only spend a few minutes on your site at most and if they can't find what their looking for easily they will leave.

    Do you mind expanding your thoughts. To me I have a main page with descriptions and a link to that actual pages with what it is has as a summery.

    Let me give everyone my mind set while creating this...To me when I have gone on other websites I find everything to clustered. pictures everywhere almost distracting. I guess what I am/was going for was 2 pages. One being a very simple to read page for those who know about detailing. and the other being a more descriptive page for someone who is unsure of what they actually need.

    Keep the thoughts coming guys I appreciate it!
