    I have been working diligently on a redesign for a few months and its going well.

    I feel that im now having trouble seeing the forest for the trees at this point.

    Would anyone be willing to give my site a look?

    I am looking for feedback relative to SEO, design, and flow through...or anything else really...

    My site can be found at www.internetce.com

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hello adell50,

    Congratulations on your hard work. I liked your site, appealing and easy to understand. Now, I noticed the following:

    On About Us: the resource "http:// affiliates.realestateexpress .com/42/183/47/" is causing the SSL warning.

    I don't see any register link anywhere which makes me assume that there's no need for one in your case, am I correct?

    On the Contact us page: The form sends data to the server even when there's invalid/empty fields. I know you have set the blue "Some information is missing." text but (you probably know what I'm gonna say) validate each field on the client side first, give specific warnings of each field, never submit to server invalid forms, keep your server validation too for double protection ;)

    Minor details, it seems you have almost everything wrapped up.

    Cheers

    Ahaaa!, I'm back! I noticed something else. You need to set up customErrors properly in your web.config, it's Off at the moment, just replace like this for example:

    <customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="~/ErrorPage.html">
    <error statusCode="404" redirect="~/404.html" />
    <error statusCode="500" redirect="~/500.html" />
    </customErrors>

    I noticed when sending information through the contact us form with an email like "sdsdsbsd"

    @ Bulkish - Thank you so much!

    - I have been wondering about that ssl error. Im not exactly sure how to fix it...is it just the one on the affiliates page that is causing it to go astray? I also see that error on my homepage up top.

    - Regarding validating the client side...i may need to make a post for some help on that, too :rolleyes:

    - regarding the web.config, should I just replace the below with the code you suggested?

    <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    <!-- AUTHENTICATION
    This section sets the authentication policies of the application. Possible modes are "Windows", "Forms", "Passport" and "None"
    "None" No authentication is performed.
    "Windows" IIS performs authentication (Basic, Digest, or Integrated Windows) according to its settings for the application. Anonymous access must be disabled in IIS.
    "Forms" You provide a custom form (Web page) for users to enter their credentials, and then you authenticate them in your application. A user credential token is stored in a cookie.
    "Passport" Authentication is performed via a centralized authentication service provided by Microsoft that offers a single logon and core profile services for member sites.



    In any event, thank you very much for your help! I really appreciate it!!!

    @ Scroble - Thanks for the feedback! I am in the process of changing the rss feed such that it displays my current hosted blog instead of my old blogger blog, but I am having trouble figuring out exactly how to do it.

    I managed the design of the site, but never really coded anything. Now that has changed and I am taking the reigns on seeing it to success (code, seo, etc).

    I am just having trouble figuring out the rss code to make it work. I cant seem to find out where to alter the source of the script that is on there now so i was thinking of just changing it all together...but im a bit stumped...

    I agree on the button change...that thing is a bit 1986, isn't it :p

    Thanks again for your input. I really appreciate it!
