About 4 weeks ago I started a new web agency, Rock Paper Simple. The website went up a week or two ago and I'd very much like to have any input anyone can provide. I've been doing this for 10 years, but sometimes my own sites are the hardest to work on since I'm so close. What are your thoughts? Does it communicate what I do well? Is it easy to find what you are looking for? Is it easy to use? Does it make you want to hire my agency? http://rockpapersimple.com
Here's my 2 cents. You're keeping it simple, yet beneath the hood lies a wrath of codes on the floor. Divs heavy, classes galore. Improper placing of tags, javascript inside <body>, etc. You could put it anywhere you like, but you should put dirty clothes in the laundry bag, not on the floor. Strip down those bloats by WP. In appearance, the site looks nice, except for the landing page (home). Something is not right with the graphics inside unoslider. Doesn't seem to compliment the design as a whole. The gear-coin? Arrow highway? What is it? Stockphotos.com stuff? You guys can do better than that. Does it communicate well? So-so. It feels like stock graphics. Stock templates. Maybe you are targeting stock customers. Easy to find what I'm looking for? What exactly I'm looking for? Portfolio. Yeah. Easy to use? As easy as the rest of the web. Got the standard 5 pages with long texts. You should summarize y'know. Keep it simple pun intended. Users won't spend so much time on website like this, unless you are news, or social, or interesting blog. Do I want to hire? I'll keep that in mind. Let me check my Facebook first. Keep on improving and don't stop. I know I won't. Promise that you guys will code cleaner. Let's not flood the industry with generic un-standard craps. I've seen countries filled with craps because they don't want to follow guidelines. Setting up shops wherever the hell they want. Restaurants that doesn't follow building rules. No fire doors and shit. No grease traps. No exhaust fans. They don't care. As long as people can eat good food. As long as people can use the beautiful website. That's the mentality of the unhealthy. All the best and good luck.
