    I'm very bad at design.
    I used a bought template. So it should be too many problems. But I've change some small things here and there.
    Can you guys give review on overall design and layout. How the colors match, the font size and type etc, etc...

    Plus is there anything else that you thing you would want to know if your are looking to get hosting. Meaning what other info do you think that I need to include on the site.

    the url is
    http://hosting.theraksasa.com

    I think the site looks very good, the main logo and the flashy nav bar look alright, and most of the text areas on your pages look fine.

    In my opinion the only things of concern would be:

    1) you don't have currency symbols on the pricing graphics, and they look sort of flubbish anyway for a commercial site, but only those three without symbols, all the other graphics look cool and I dig the colors.

    2) On your solutions page all of the links on the right are out of place with the checkmark images, they would look better in a table or something appropriately spaced, the next line of text should be right underneath the first one and not way ahead of it, but really that's nothing i guess..

    3) I think you should have the links and other stuff in the footer area centered and not starting over on the left, it would give your site more of a centered/standish look in general. I feel the same about the latest promotions section and the RSS section on the index page, you could get more use out of that big blank area on the bottom right.

    But that's just one opinion.

    The site looks good. The problem I found was you have links under the different plans but they do not go anywhere, they are dead links. Otherwise I think it looks like a standard hosting site.

    The site looks good, the color scheme and the template is nice, but the numbers
    look pixelated.

    The main page:

    Starter Plans
    Starts at 300 MB disk space.
    Starts at 3 GB transfer/mo.
    Suitable for new sites
    Fantastico! Script Installer
    cPanel control panel


    All the stuff in red under that one and all the rest of the plans are clickable links but they go no where. When you do follow the one that does work "more info" all the links on the right hand side are the same way. They all look like links and are clickable but stay on the same page.

    Well I still think you need all that stuff on the bottom to be centered, like most other sites with similar designs have it. Your footer links and the copyright info at the bottom don't look right, to be honest to me this makes it look unfinished or like the designer got tired of the job and moved on as quickly as possible without doing any little things like that to make it look more professional..

    Still though everything else looks alright besides the few things i mentioned above.

    It looks pretty good and simple. I like it except I say put a better background color than just white. Also, get a better domain name.

    I haven't any problems with it

    What do you suggest? something with the word hosting in it? raksasa is actually a word in malay.. so the name is actually easy to remember.. Some on is siting on raksasa.com so i settled for theraksasa.com.. remembering it is not so hard.. but i agree that typing it is a little hard beause of the "sasa" at the back that requires you to use only your left hand :p
