**pigbait75** · 04-24-2007, 12:01 PM

very nice i like the eye

**ehingerenterpri** · 04-24-2007, 12:22 PM

I like the eye and most everything looks good but I think it looks a little cluttered. There is a lot going on.

its alright ,but far far far to busy. there is just to many things to look at on the home page people will not know where to start.

is the web design company bar bit alogn the top needed, if it isnt i would take that out

**Angelosanto** · 05-11-2007, 09:26 AM

I'm sure I've already reviewed this

**loganeast** · 10:53 AM

Overall I liked it (but I seem to like every site. I'm the Paula Abdul of this board. - Not a good thing to be, BTW.)

I think jameslow is right about the Web Design Company bar at the top. It just seems unnecessary.

It is very busy, you might consider condensing a couple things. I really like the large graphic at the top, but its very large. Could you achieve the same effect with a smaller graphic?

I'm really not a fan of the scrolling testimonials. I think its unnecessary. You could get by just as easily with a single testimonial that changes randomly everytime you go to the page.

In the "Choose Miracle Studios and here's what you'll receive..." section. You wrote:

3++ theme related designs to choose from!
FREE Search Engine Optimization of your pages!
FREE unnumberable changes to your website!

What does 3++ mean? Is that over 300? And "unnumerable" is a very akward word. It would be more powerful (and less vague) to say unlimited.

Both are dangerous to me as you will be making changes to this client's web site for the rest of your business life. I don't suggest that. How about unlimited changes for a year or 6 months? Give yourself an out. You don't want to be tied down to an annoying customer forever because you wanted to get a sale now. I've been down that road a couple times and I have regretted each one!

Overall, I think its a really nice, impressive web site. You should get plenty of work from it.

Your site looks good, very good. However, why do you need the flash in the top left corner? A static, normal image would do just fine. But don't take my word on it, split test it against the site with the flash and see which one gives you more quote requests. Usually the one without the flash converts better.

Also, please, please remove Customer Quotes animation, it's killing your site. It's pretty much impossible to read anything from your site because of the distracting animation. The animation in the header on the other hand is not distracting at all. Now that's something I don't usually say, a non-distracting flash animation

Your copy could use some modification. First of all, you have a typo right in your Introduction text in the header. Secondly, your copy has too many difficult words. Like "abode", "plethora" and "availed". If your target audience consists of well educated people who speak English as their first language then you could use such a language. But I like your copy. Did you use a copywriter or did you do it yourself, if I may ask?

Your copy is quite wide which also makes it more difficult to read. I would make the text wrap about where the heading ends (Because the Bottom Line is always "PROFIT").

Actually, I disagree with most of the some of the comments here. I do not think the site is too busy at all. I love the flash where it is incorporated in both places and the design flows well. The flash in the eye is beautiful. My one suggestion would be from an artistic standpoint, the olive green on gray (in The side bar) doesn't seem to flow well...Perhaps a lighter gray would change that.. And I agree that the top bar is not needed. Great work though

**LadynRed** · 05-11-2007, 08:22 PM

I don't think it's too busy either, and artistically it's nice.

Code-wise..well, that's another matter. It doesn't validate and it's a horrid mess of nested tables. Nothing there that could not be accomplished with CSS and NO TABLES for layout.

The Flash is neat -- but again, you're using that nasty <embed> tag to put it into the page. Using <embed> will cause IE users to have to do the 2-click dance to 'activate' active content before they can even SEE your flash - so in the beginning they see NOTHING where your flash should be.

Use another method besides <embed> - there are several if you'll look thru the stickies in the HTML forum here.

**XBSHX** · 05-12-2007, 03:30 AM

its pretty good but like the person above said its too busy and I don't know where to look first. It also is far too wide for my taste.

**jameslow** · 05-12-2007, 04:58 AM

no it really is far to busy!
you have the flash at the top that trys to draw the eye to them , then you have the scrolling customer quotes which wants attention, then theres links every where and when you scroll down theres blocks of text left right and center, people wont know where to start

**hrvoje461** · 05-12-2007, 06:26 AM

Very nice and informative site. I like your site, I think you did a very good job.

**MattCoops** · 05-12-2007, 09:36 AM

text is too small

and I would never choose a web designer who uses tables, especially in his own site creation

can you say CSS

**anindianspice** · 03:34 AM

Hi Friends,

Thanks a lot for your comments.......

I think this is a real scrutiny for my website.....

And your im partial comments will help me to improve it further.........

Thanks a lot
Bye Take care and

Keep Smiling.........

I know i can't get such a honest reviews any where else

**mohamoud** · 05-14-2007, 03:40 AM

I though the site was bad. It looked like a template you bought. This is 2007, web 2.0 simple is in. Your page will be so cool if it was 2001.

With stupid IE. You sometimes have no choose. Specially when have to make a complex design.

But i think no website is complete without creative web designing .........

You can use boring web 2.0 if your are yahoo, google or Microsoft

These are the brand names......they don't have to prove anything........

But, we are small web design company........we have to show our clients how artistically and how passionately we work on their websites ..........

We have to prove ourselves.........

And our website does that very well

I will surely switch to web 2.0 once we are as BIg as Microsoft, IBM etc

On the other hand most of our clients are Small Business Owners, they always ask for creative user friendly websites....

And we give our best in order to give them a unique website that perform well on all web based para metric's........
