    I think I posted in the wrong section before? Never made a site by myself before, need all advice good and bad. I look at it and it seems odd, please tell me what you think?Here it is. Now mind you I am still creating some pages but really concerned about the way the front page is.
    thank u very much,
    Jodyq

    I would suggest giving more width to the column with the main content, my eyes are not immediately drawn to the meat and bones of the site. I would also suggest dimming the prominence of the colors of things that are not priority (e.g. text box background for login, etc). Maybe place the ads somewhere else. Besides that, I like it.

    The design is interesting, but your initial description of the service the website provides needs work. The structure and style require total revision.

    I also recommend asking someone to revise the descriptions of your Top Ten Web Hosting Companies. You want people to appreciate the website and the content you offer.

    Ok, I was able to pull it up this evening and my first impression was very messy. It really looks like you just threw the content on the site with no regard to presentation for the main page. Also for sites if your trying to sell something its best to go with soft colors instead of hard dark colors.

    My Suggestions:
    - Do not center the top text on the main page.
    - Shorten the text at the top or break the big paragraph up into sensible paragraph sections so the user doesn't get lost in the content.
    - Present the listed host in a table
    - Choose different colors for your website. Maybe go with a website template or get inspiration from one.
