I would love to hear any feedback. I'm not a pro, I built this for a friend and he wants to start
a PPC campaign so i wanna make sure it looks ready.

Thank you

    I guess no news is good news right? I'm not looking to win an award, just wanna make sure it looks good to someone who lands there from a PPL.

      A few short points:

      Pros:
      Great colour scheme
      Great layout
      Slider works very well and gives a professional look

      Things to improve:
      The text above the slider is a little long and pushes the slider further down. Shorter blocks of text are easier to read, plus I think the slider sells the page better.
      Benifits is spelt benefits (in the UK at least, not sure if it's spelt different in US English?)
      Testimony I'd call Testimonials as the people who want to see feedback from buyers, are going to want to see at least 2.
      Try and get rid of the theme info and Wordpress info from your footer but leave your copyright info.
      Lastly, the gradient on the logo doesn't fit in too well with the background on the header - I'd consider having the black gradient background removed (so as it's just the "b" and "Boca Walk In Tubs")

      All in all though, it's virtually there and with just a few small changes, I can see it doing very well! You've done a great job

        Ok, I believe I can do that via a small edit to the footer.php file. I'll give it a try.

          Have a search in the footer.php for a couple of the words in the current footer such as "Powered". Search this using Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on a Mac).

          You should be able to get a rough idea of where that line begins and ends.

          Before you start deleting anything, copy and paste the whole footer.php file into a word document and then just keep deleting little bits until it goes. If anything goes wrong, then you can always copy the whole text back across and start from scratch.

          It can be a little bit trial and error to start with, but you'll soon work out what to take out.

          Good luck with it

    Goood start.

    get the pixels right on the pictures, so its high quality otherwise it looks really cheap.

    You could do the text a bit larger on the pages, i find it hard to read

    I always prefer no shadow underneath sliders.

      Thomas, I agree and thank you. I always like big text also when looking at biz cards, CD's etc. I will edit the css file and try some things.

      In regards to pixels. Tell me if I understand pixel issues and such.

      1) When you grab an image to insert you need to change the pixel width and height to the size recommended by the theme instructions. For example for the slider the theme calls for 930x350
      and I did that.

      2) What I don't know how to address is the issue of changing the image to 930x350 without screwing up the maintain ratio aspect.

      Am I correct ?

      Because of your product specifically I might make the suggestion to INCREASE your text size.

      When you are targeting products that will lend themselves to being searched by an "Older" population it is helpful to have larger text. I personally do this anytime I am reaching a demographic that is 50 and over.

      Anything you can do on your end, that makes the users experience that much better, really needs to be considered. Remember... what is good for your customer will always be good for you!

    For a nonpro designer, I think your work is good enough. These are my comments for your website.
    -expand your header, make your navigation a little bit bigger and a border for your logo would be nice since it has a different background design.
    -put 30px space between the title and the slider.
    -on the content part, maybe just three columns so you can enlarge the font and make it more visible. Just put the most left column under or over the three services.
    -I think you can put the footer on the gray part of the website since it’s empty.
    Thanks and goodluck, hope it helps.

    Just a couple of points from me:

    Your logo looks quite compressed
    Link the boxes under the slider to individual pages
    Look at the content. Paragraphs seem to be broken on certain pages

    the site is pretty good, i just don't like the background-color on the banner part of the page.

    some comments:
    - logo is quite not good in my opinion, it looks like a compressed image.
    - font-size is small that makes it hard to read.
    - make the font color a bit darker.

    overall, not bad for a non pro. Hope this helps, Goodluck.
