    The content for the most part will be completely replaced but I need some layout ideas for my home page. Whether it be images, content, etc. your tips will be acknowledged. Feel free to critique the rest of the website as well. Thank you.

    - Your home page is boring. It doesn't grab my attention and doesn't have any clear message. You have about a split second to grab someones attention, you won't accomplish that with 2 giant paragraphs. "Technology is moving fast, we can help slow it down." Why don't you make this big and bold right in the middle of the page?
    - Your logo could use some improvement, it looks as if it's been stretched horizontally
    - Use more imagery, like on your services page to clearly show what you do. Like for wordpress, have a wordpress logo, etc.
    - Your "work" page needs some work... (pun intended). You have 2 websites and like 6 categories? I assume you're going to fill this up? If that's not the case, then don't use categories. Add more details about each site.
    - Either take down the "quote" and "contact" pages or add content. "Under construction" images are so pre-2000, looks very unprofessional
    - Your layout for your blog looks incomplete, and has poor use of spacing.

    The overall impression you get when I look at your website is that it's incomplete, which doesn't give me the sense that you are very reliable and half-ass things. If you don't want your potential customers to feel the way, then I suggest you fix the issues mentioned above.

    Use typography technic.
    This makes your text more readable and awesome.

    A telephone number very imperceptible and difficult to read.
    Design very poor for site web design company.
    Look on the top and best web design site company on the world and get inspiration.
    Good Luck!

    Use some graphic and point based or gif type of images to explain your product and services.

    Keep your main page extremely user-friendly with nice colors and graphics.

    To be honest with you, there is nothing to like about your website. The design is as simple as it can get which doesnt help in attracting anyone.
    I suggest that you look at other website with similar contents as yours and try to pick the things your website is missing.

    good luck
