Does Too Much Padding Look Unprofessional? And How Big Should A Contact Form Be?
Right now, I still need to make a lot of changes. For instance, I have done no work to the copy on the site yet. The video thats in there, is not the video I'm using. The 3 bullets I have, will be changed into some type of compelling offer.
Then all the copy underneath will change too.

I'm just trying to get things situated right. And these are my main questions:
1) Does the template have too much padding? I feel like padding is pointless because most professional sites I'm looking at, don't have padding in between the header/menu/body etc. Should I remove the padding so I have more content above the fold?
2) The form. Is it too big? One side of me says a large form gets attention, another side says it distracts people. Should I completely remove the form off the front page, and put a little button under where the video is going? So people have to click to a back page to submit info?
I will be using both SEO & PPC to get traffic to the site. So one side of me says I should have a large form on the front page for PPC. Another side says I need to use that space for content/educating SEO traffic.
So let me get one thing clear. If a website does the job of having a compelling offer on the front page.... and lots of social proof, does it really matter how obvious the form is? Its been almost a year, and I still have no idea how smart it is to have a form on the front page. My intution says focus on providing value and a compelling offer, then make people find the form on their own.
Any advice on this, I'd really appreciate.
