Not bad.
The lack of contrast hurts my eyes though.

What is the mystery meat navigation in the bottom right corner all about?

For me though, black is not a trust inspiring color.
And I DO think that choosing a web host is a bit of a
leap of faith. I would have gone with something else.

The link icons at the bottom are what originally came with the template, and i forgot to remove, like you say black isn't everyone's color and fully understand your point, a decent looking web hosting template is hard too come by since most look like they were created when the internet came about.

Choosing a web host ? i dont understand what you mean by this, you choosing a web host or me ? to note if you are on about me i am not a reseller on a companys server, i have actually put my money into a dedicated server rather than try to give customers something that has been passed on how many times who knows lol.

I think what TWD means is, your potential customers may be thrown off by the darkness of the skin as people believe dark sites tend to have an untrustworthy aura about them as apposed to sites that are light.

I myself quite like the look although theres just something about the navigation bar that throws me off but I can't put my finger on how it could be improved.

I am not a big fan of dark websites, they hurt my eyes.

This website seems to lack content and is not finished.

So really, the only thing I can comment on at the moment is your navigation. Use text based CSS navigation instead of images, it helps with SEO in the long run.

It look very appealing at first glance and requires the viewer to take a second look.

Yes i liked the look of the template, but like it has been said it is not welcomed by all, i have found a more lighter template to use and will update this topic when i am finished with it, the new one will be more css based.

My Malware bytes program just blocked your IP as infected....... 91.214.45.161

This blocks your page due to suspected malware, i suggest you find out why as people viewing your website would not be impressed, luckily I have the program which is SPOT ON!


Why is your website infected? BEWARE USERS!

Yes after checking the company i lease the server from whos ip range my dedicated server is on is on malware bytes block list although my site is not, malware bytes say that they block the whole range due to a few sites on that range being classes as malware infected.

I have no control over this and will be speaking to them.

Note: My site is not malware infected and is routinely scanned and checked for malware/viruses etc
