    Looking for independent reviews of this financial counseling site. Informative and helpful, with lots of financial counseling info?

    What's your opinion?

    definitely looks classy, i enjoyed the animation you used to catch people's attention because the site does happen to have a bland look. but then again, a lot of financial counseling sites have bland looks to them in my experience. i like that you used images for each main content link you wanted to attract attention too. good job

    Looks not bad. Here are my suggestions for improvement:

    - A logo would be fine in the header..

    - The header image with text should point to the homepage

    - I'd adjust margins for the main menu

    - Maybe replace the blue links on the homepage with something of other color..


    In general looks nice, great animation!

    Hi..
    The current design is good but can be made more inviting. I think the look of the site could be made more Web 2.0 and contemporary.

    Just some initial thoughts -

    1. The homepage should have a stronger Call to Action area.
    2. Services are displayed one level deeper.. A lot of people might just turn off the page if they don't find what they are looking for (read: your service) on the first page. See what we have done on our site www.magnoninternational.cm with the services section.
    3. The name of the company should be in the form of a logo.. Think it is quite rudimentary to not have a logo.

    Have a look at our portfolio and see some good web design stuff that we have done. We bill at a very reasonable $15 per hour.. Let me know if we can be of any assistance.

    Best regards,
    Vivek

    You need much more of your detail portofolio.

    Overall nice design. The coding however is horrible - Doctype declaration missing, tags not closed... have someone re-code the template.
