Looks good to me, although the faq doesn't fit the layout of the rest of the site.

Nice!

Very clean and clear on both LCD and cathode. The image of the servers at the top right does dither a fair bit for me
-IE 5.5
-Win 98

The options under it look great. It looks to have a *touch* of brushed steel though it's very subtle if it is (a good thing). About my only issue is the logo. With the rest looking so good, it seems it a little 'hokey' compared to the rest.

Umm, the text could use a little reformatting, and you should include a link in the left logo that directs back to the index. Most people expect that as a generic navigation technique now. And as mentioned - that FAQ page!

That right hand panel is a work of art though!! *lol*

Hi,

Very clean site. Easy on the eye too!

Some suggestions.

1. On the front page, reduce the amount of white space down the bottom just above all the links. People don't like to scroll down to get to the links, and reducing the space will help. This applies, in fact, to all pages.

At the same time, see if you can stretch that right grey bar down to match the text (approximately). It looks a bit better, but it's no biggie.

2. Why is there a break between the 3 plans and the 'compare plans'? It breaks the flow and doesn't quite suit - I suggest eradicating that space and putting the 'compare plans' text in a different color to make it stand out. (if that was the effect you were trying to achieve).

3. On the Control Panel page, it looks better (and more 'orthodox') if you put the red headings right on top of the text, and leave the space *above* the red headings, instead of the other way around.

4. Security!! It is absolutely imperative that you get a secure certificate when people first access your Order forms (through the 'Order Now' links), otherwise there's always that chance that hackers can intercept the info and misuse the info. Guess who gets the blame for it?

5. Hmmm.. Domain registration not clickable? It might be a bit better if you let it be 'clicked' and just create a new page saying 'Domain registration' coming soon. No biggie however.

6. The FAQ page.... Well... No comment required. The other two have already covered it.


Otherwise, it's a very good, clean site. Now, just fix the security please!!

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Feedback

Overall
-It had a nice clean look
-Navigation was easy. I never had a problem moving around
-Pricing information was easy to get to, and ordering options were also easy to go to

Specific
-I agree with akashik the logo seems amateurish compared to the rest of the site
-doman registration link is a bad link

Content Issues
-You might want to include a section that talks about your company. The idea is to build credibility. I generally do not feel comfortable doing business with a company unless I know something about them :)

Navigation Issues
-The site was not completely consistent as far as the navigation went. the FAQ and Ordering page do not match the site design

Misc
-I don't think you should have an affiliates section if you do not have any ;) Plus if you have to have one it would be nice to explain what an "affiliate" means to your company

good job!

David

It will be easy to read if there will be one table with comparison of all packages.

I like this a lot. Its very simple and creative. It gives a very professional feeling, which is what you want to create for a hosting website.

One thing I noticed is that you didnt specify a DTD. This is not required but its a good idea to go ahead and do so because it makes your website look more professional and helps with cross browser compatibility. Also all of your tags attributes should contain quotes around them. Some of yours do and some of your dont.

bgcolor=#999999 should be bgcolor="#999999"

I hope this helps.

Design's pretty nice, but the comparison chart could be fixed up a lot. It's one of the main elements of a successful hosting site, when I look at it as a potential buyer, and it could be clearer and more attractive. Try getting rid of the table border= type border in favor for a nicer looking style, don't use yellow on orange, and try replacing the Yes/No with checkboxes or something like this.

Overall design looks good, but as others have mentioned, make sure that you entire site is fluid and nothing stands out. (XHTML is yummy)
