Hi i just launched my webdesigning company but before i spend money on ads and campain's, i want to know if i have a good website so i dont have a bad effect on my visitors ( that may become new clients) so i want know what you think about my website ( www.high-tecdesigns.com) so i don't miss out on upcoming clients (im not advertising on my company i only want help Thanks
Yes it is a good website, but i don`t know with that portfolio, if it`s temporary just for you to see it, its ok, but it`s unethical to use other`s designs claiming that they are yours. You wouldn`t like that, would you?
Hi good job, but i have some things to say about it - try to use a simple design for your logo - Don't use flash slider, try a jquery slider like (jcarousel) - in prtfolio page, i think that you forgot the name of projects also the link of each one. - You have a CSS issue in your contact page try to fix it - i don't see that you need a submenu for the moment. I wish you good luck
Don't mean to bash you but is just my honest opinion. Your design's are very bad, if in fact you designed your website. You should look into improving your skills before trying to offer it as a service. I have seen many free designs much much much much better than your site, and that's supposed to attract your clients...
Ok than tell what is so bad about it, thanks for you opinion, but just saying the website looks ugly or bad doesn't help me, be more specific, so i can improve that part of my website, like to logo,background,the banners, tell me more
nice site on the Web Design example page don't show too many examples because this make the speed of the site slow. And also add a live demo link's. Also add a link on logo when i click on the logo nothing happens . over all is fine.
It's very bad design -- it might be pretty, but it's filled with accessibility issues and 'how not to build a website' methodologies. For starters it's a fixed width layout too big for netbooks and tablets, but is also a useless little stripe on my workstation; Fixed width designs are a steaming pile of /FAIL/ on websites, no matter what the PSD jockeys and lazy folks might tell you. You've got fixed metric (px) fonts on your content, illegible color contrasts in several spots -- so that's the trifecta of broken design methods. Figure in the massive pointless flashtard banner, inconsisten paddings, layout concepts like the three across perfect width/perfect height elements, use of the site logo as a filler -- basically most of the layout concept needs to go in the trash. Under the hood, things get even worse -- the first line proudly proclaiming the code is in 'transition' from 1997 to 1998 coding practices; tranny is for supporting old/outdated methodologies, not building new websites. No language information, the TITLE tag is massively and uselessly overstuffed, while the keywords are short good luck ranking on any of those terms particularly when they do not exist in body, no media targets on your CSS LINK, Javascript doing CSS' job for the menus just for some goofy animation, extra DIV and ID around elements for no good reason, clearing DIV like it's still 2001, presentational use of classes (likely from some dumbass 'grid' type system), tags and attributes like FONT and COLOR that have no business in any HTML written after 1998, paragraphs where you cannot even PUT paragraphs (direct children of UL), images doing text's job, complete lack of images off graceful degradation thanks to all those content-less tags, paragraphs in non-breaking spaces doing padding's job, I could go on for hours about what's wrong with the markup. The content paragraphs are particularly a laugh -- the "Accessible and usable" part since the whole page reeks of "WCAG, what's that?" and "Semantic Markup, what's that?" Size wise it's a wreck too - not counting the flashtard banner you've got 334k in 20 files to deliver three content images and 1.44k of plaintext content. At that point even the relatively small 8k of markup is doing 5k or less' job... though really 1.4k of plaintext is a indicator you should probably have more text and less goofy crap. Just to show you what I mean, I'd be gutting the markup for that page all the way down to: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en" ><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0" /> <meta name="keywords" content="Web,Development,Search,Optimization,Accessible,Design" /> <meta name="description" content="The best Full Service, High Quality and Professional webdesigning company with 12+ years Web-Designing experience" /> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="screen.css" media="screen,projection,tv" /> <title> High-TEC Designs </title> </head><body> <div id="pageWrapper"> <h1> <a href="/"> HIGH-TEC <span>DESIGNS</span> <b><!-- image replacement sandbag --></b> </a> </h1> <ul id="mainMenu"> <li class="current"> <a href="index.html">Home</a> </li><li> <a href="about.html">About</a> <ul> <li><a href="about.html">Background</a></li> </ul> </li><li> <a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a> <ul> <li><a href="portfolio.html">Web Design examples</a></li> </ul> </li><li> <a href="contact.html">Contact</a> </li> </ul> <div class="leadingHalf"> <p> We are leading web design, web development and search engine optimization company with +12 years of web design experience, delivering highly-creative, brand-driven and results-focused web solutions to corporate and individual clients. </p><p> We help companies of all sizes to use enstablished and emerging technologies to do their web businesses and marketing.

Which is why I'd suggest throwing it out and starting over, there's little worth saving on it. Also, you might want to get someone with a better command of English aboard the project too. "Most refreshingly new and original ideas" -- Might as well say "Me love you long time".
I like grey color more than black colors. It will be high contrast on many screens. Your portfolio contains a few not shows images, just check
Hi, your site doesnt seem to have much on it, so I scrolled on down to the footer to find something to navigate to. The first two selections were dysfunctional. After that I gave up. The first page I went to was your portfolio link, it was bare. The second link I clicked on hosting/domain_check went to a 404 page. I think you should work a little bit more on your site, and then come back for a review. Good luck.
It is pretty bad design imo, the colors and fonts are really ugly, you should do something more simple if you're not a good designer yet.
At firts read learn what is Above the Fold in Webdesing. Webdesign isn't about nice graphics. It is about usability. Keep it up, you are on the right way.
The good - the portfolio had some appealing designs. The bad - a bigger list, sorry. The front page looked dated (I am not a designer, I'm a business coach and marketer, but Death Shadow's review (apart from being a tad harsh ) was far better in terms of what you can learn technically... so I will look at it from a potential customer's point of view The name isn't memorable; if I have to guess between you and someone who spelled tech as 'tech' instead of 'tec' I would end up at their website. It looks like a game site. Black reeks of AlienWare and Gamer websites - look into the psychology of colours It's not responsive. See DeathShadow's post because he obviously knews more about it hehe... but the short version is (to a potential customer like me) a responsive template that has been skinned by you is FAR better than what is there now. In the last 6 months I don't recall a meeting that did NOT involve an iPad or Android tablet being passed around the meeting table for a proposed designer for a project. If you are not professionally viewable on those platforms you are already starting with a handicap that a new business/website can't afford. How do I buy? You have chat and contact icons buried down the bottom, but I can't see anything that links me to seeing what you have for sale and how much you charge Who are you? What is different about you to other designers? Your website needs to answer this.
