Hi,

Ok - this site is completely finished. I just wanted some reviews on what I could do to maybe spiff it up a bit, or make anything better. If you think it is perfect then let me know too! I am not really sure of what should be added, taken off, etc. so comment away.

Thanks so much for your help.

I can't really find much wrong with this site. Looks good graphically, works in Netscape, works on multiple resolutions and gets down to the point. You got a good web site going!

[Jay]

Thanks a lot Vincent. I appreciate you taking your time out of your schedule to look at my site.

I thought it looked a bit skinny and some of the graphics weren't to my taste (just the unix and win2k ones I suppose), but what can I say? Have I made anything better? Nope. Looks nice

[Jay]

Hehe, thanks Chicken.

"Next Generation Hosting finally combines everything your looking for in a web hosting provider, making us..."

The "your" should be "you're". Also, you have %99.9 instead of 99.9% a little farther down. Last thing is that the menu text is a little disturbing on the eyes (though it could just be me since I haven't been able to sleep much lately).

Jay,

Excellent work on the site. Great balance and loads damn quick.

A couple of suggestions/questions however :

1. Why do you have Unix features listed only? I think it would be more beneficial if you had NT plan details available (unless you were trying to discourage NT buyers... But then what's the point? I'm getting off track here already...)

2. In the plans pages, I suggest you put the $34.95 setup fee section (below the plans) up the top. I know it's probably going to discourage a few people, but I think it's better to get it out of the way and so people suddenly don't complain, 'Hey, where's that $34.95 from??', particularly if they don't bother looking down all the way properly.

3. I always advocate consistency throughout the site, and your FAQs page should do the same. Leave the questions (not only the hyperlinks, but the actual questions themselves) blue, but change the text back to black to fit in with the rest of the site. Quite frankly I think it looks better with a blue/black combo.

4. With the ordering process, I suggest you tell people on the first page that this is the 1st step of an xth step process just so they don't get discouraged by the number of steps required.

5. I must complement you on the Support pages. I've never seen a host put PDF/Word versions of the CP on a site, and I think it's a great idea. Well done! Now if only you could do it with the NT pages too...


Apart from the above suggestions, kudos to you on a superbly done site. Bravo!

Well it looks good under Linux w/ Netscape 4.75.

Many sites are hard to read under Linux, and your's is quite readable.

[Jay]

Thank you so much JTY, Justin, and especially BC! I will be sure to make those changes BC, as you are definetly right about all of them.

Thanks again!

Wow. It looks really good and sure is orignal for a hosting site. Very cool...I think.

[Jay]

Thanks, Chaps! (Although this actual post is 2 years old, and as a matter of fact I am pretty sure the reviews on here was for a different design.)

Eh, what am I complaining about! If people want to review the current site too, be my guest.
