    First thing, it invites comparison shopping. Within a minute, they could find someone cheaper. So, you lose the price shoppers.

    Second thing, It would appear you have a one size fits all thing, an "off the rack" model, whereas your industry operates on customization.

    UNLESS, you done things there, then some might be willing to buy now. You haven't given us enough information to offer up any solid actionable advice.

    Why not change the idea of a 'Payment' button, to a 'Get a Quote' button. Then, link the quote button to a custom Contact form that asks a few specific questions, and gives plenty of space in text boxes for your potential clients to fill in their needs.

    This keeps your visitors on your page, puts them in direct contact with you, and puts you in a much stronger position to offer assistance.

    I don't think their thought would be concern about wasting your time. If you want to sell something hands off, it needs to be something different than custom web design.

    Always quote to order, especially with design work. I've tried the "one size fits all" pricing before and it was a massive headache.

      I know it might be cool, but how does your splash page help sell your services? It's a background image and that's it. In my opinion, it's a huge waste of very valuable real estate.

      The first thing your customers see is the most important part of your website. Your making your visitors work to see what you sell. What if they don't notice the "See What I do" button? Don't know what it is, or it doesn't show/work in their browser? Wonder how high your bounce rate is? Do you know?

      Don't mean to give you a hard time, but do you want to have a "cool" website or sell your services and make money?

      It is also naive to think that you can put up payment buttons right away because you think your visitors already know it's going to cost them. While your visitors might already know it comes at a price, it doesn't mean they are going to buy from you, at your prices. Just like anything, you need to sell your services and what they can do for them before you can expect people to pay you. No?

      I have not shopped design services for along time, but your prices seem REALLY high. Is that what designers are charging these days? Have you shopped your competition? Gotta know what your up against.

      For the prices your charging, you REALLY need to do alot more selling. Unless your getting plenty of clients already?

      What about the big services, like hosting services that give away websites for free, well for a hosting account? Sure they might not be the same thing, but do your site visitors know that? Here again, you need to sell them on what your design services will do for them. And why it worth the price.

      From what I see your selling the features, when you should be selling the benefits. Honestly, with little information and little selling, I don't see how you'd get many customers. Unless it's very good referrals.

      As I said, I don't mean to be rude. You asked and I gave my opinion.

      Almost forgot, your portfolio, the links need to open in new windows, this alone will lose your potential clients.
