    Oh no, your flash in the homepage is hard to be loaded, and
    I don't think it helps your business. So, I think you'd better
    place your hosting plans right in homepage. Just like other webhosters.

    Thanks for the review denzuko,
    I was a little curious to know what the load time on the flash banners were, what is the speed of your internet connection? If you don't mind me asking?

    I am currently re-working the design as we speak to add some of our best plans to the main webpage, I believe it would benefit alot better then a few flash banners definately.

    Again, Thanks for your Review. :)

    I'm using very slow connection.
    It's not completely loaded for 20 seconds. :-(

    Thank you for your kind words :)
    I still feel it needs a bit more work, however I am quite happy with how it is at the moment.

    Did you find it took a while to load with the flash videos? or was that fine for you?
    I may look at changing the compression on the video to make it load quicker, trial and error will be the key here.

    Thanks,
    Brendan.

    I agree that it would be better if you don't put so much some 'sophisticated' features like go daddy does. Because this thing will decrease your chance to get customers who have low connection. But the theme is quite comfortable in my eyes ^_^

    Didn't take long for my browser to load up the flash document, the site design isn't the best but it is ok,

    goodluck with this site!

    Thanks for the reviews guys :)
    i will definately put all your suggestions to use when i redesign/fix it up, i knew there was a few things i needed to sort out however its 100% better then the original so i'm very happy with it.

    ryodimas; i have to agree with too much "sophistication" i'm trying to not be like the big companies with 100 flash videos + popups and such not sure why i did the flash banners to be honest :)

    Looking to finish off the new design at some point today, i will post again once complete,

    Thanks :)

    Hello, from a designer view, it is good. (Maybe set off the flash audio, and allow visitor to turn it on manually. I jumped when the intro started to be honest. :D

    From a marketer view, (I may be wrong or I may not reflect your own opinion), but the flash intro is outdated and off topic. It penalize the overall credibility. The customer will get a first idea of the company, based on what they see immediately when they enter your site. They want to get to the information asap.

    You should focus on a particular product/offer and promote a special not to be missed promotion directly on the homepage. Let the customer know he reached the best place to purchase the service he is seeking, and dont make him hit the "back" button in the first 5 seconds.

    This is from my own point of view, it may differ from person to person... I am not an expert marketer nor designer but I've been developing online advertising for more than 6 years and I hope I my comment where constructive.

    Keep up the good work and sorry my english skill is not perfect.

    The animation is original for a hosting site. The overall design is unremarkable, however.

    I like it. clean. Looks like youve removed the flash everyone was talking about. Chat looks good. Certain aspects still take a while to load tho.

    I would change your facebook and twitter logos.. so they are the "standard coloring" that is trusted worldwide.
