Please Review My Web Hosting Company

    Hi Dp,

    Well over the past couple of months I've made it my obligation to create a high quality web hosting company, we are a company which prides itself on providing the best customer support and service.

    But the next question is how to get the word out and whether or not you guys think the site is being effective enough.

    Please tell me what you think about the website and the areas you think I need to address and work on.

    I intend on taking this business very seriously and expansions will be made in the future as well as that I am open to all opinions, especially criticisms.

    Site url: http://lighthost.info

    P.S
    I've always felt I should do more for the environment so would donating a percentage of all profits to an organisation thats supports forest regrowth and greener energy help with promotion?

    Thank you

    I think you need to make the banner alone, don't join the welcome message into that..

    By the welcome message do you mean the one on the left hand side or the text inside the banner?

    Thanks for the opinion

    Here are my suggestions:

    The website is really dark. Light pages convert better (proven) It's hard to read. At the very least, use white on black, not gray like in the top left section.

    Really hate the reflections in the contact us icon and the featured area. Even on the order now buttons it seems, why is this necessary? It's overdone.

    The latest news widget, we don't need to know who posted it, so remove "posted by x". Try to put only relevant information on the pages.

    The font seems a little small. May want to experiment with another font + size.

    Integrate the checkout process with your site, it's a different layout and just confuses customers.

    Otherwise, the site seems fine. Good job.

    Edit: "Warez linking" as a feature. That's a first.. Not something you should be proud of but hey.. If you do stuff like that, you will only attract such customers. Other customers will be savvy enough to know that it could have bad SEO implications to be on a shared server with such sites.

    Hey, great site, I love the design. Looks very professional. I would add some text links at the bottom of the site to Home, Shared Hosting, Login, Contact, TOS. Also, are you able to make the login page the same design as your other site pages? It looks like you might be a hosting reseller, so this may not be possible if you are using the host's actual portal, but thought I'd ask :)

    Good luck!

    Ok ive taken a lot of your advice into consideration can you please look at the new updated site, I tried to alter it as much as i could, and as for the color scheme i couldnt really change it without having to edit alot of image files so i decided to keep the current color.

    I also edited all the whmcs files so they matched the template of the main site.

    frankly.... i am not a fan of it...there 10000's of hosting websites which look similar or have the same type of style...

    go with something different to stand out

    i am not saying the website is bad, its awesome, everything is nicely out there, but just the feel of it seems so over used
