    I like your graphic designs and the hover navigation. I think the fonts are a bit small, but everything else is great. :)

    hi wwm,

    i'm not sure people are looking for an 'exciting new' graphics company - i think rather they would be looking for a company they can trust to look after their graphics needs. a reliable company. that sort of thing. a company with a proven track record.

    you're missing a lot of seo possibilies by using all the graphic headers but i guess from what you say your client is insisting on them.

    One thing from an seo advice point of view, is to recommend to them that they get really good backlinks from all their client sites. Backlinks that are varied but contain all their desired keywords. From what i can see, web design companies get more business through word of mouth, referrals than through search engine listings. Still no harm. And worth making those backlinks enticing.

    I did some analysis of a webdesign company while i was in chile earlier in the year. Their search engine results sucked and they could have been number one for any term they wanted probably - they were very well established. But every single backlink just contained their company name or a graphic. So they rated great for the company name but nothing else. But they weren't really interested in search engine rankings - they had enough business anyway...

    because on-page you're missing out a lot of optimisation stuff, the off-page (backlinks) give you a second possible chance to optimise...
