I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


Probably brutally honest but that is what I need. I'm working on my website. Its just my nature to be overly analytical so one minute I have a super clean design, the next I design it with organic search engine placement as a priority.

Before I link up the rest of the pages, I want you to take a look at the home page. I have a lot going on. Is it too distracting? This is a version with SEO in mind. Any words of wisdom or insight are welcome. You won't hurt my feelings in any way, I want to do whats best for my business and my customers. - Ken

PS: The video has ben edited down as well but you can watch this version if you have a fast enough connection.

Hey, pressure, looks good. Are you using professional photographers for those photos or just a digital?

Re: I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


The file is really big, KOC. I hated to edit it but I do have a version that is smaller but the pictures get grainy. I haven't uploaded that yet. Thanks for the feedback thus far.

Re: I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


Looks nice but took a while to load, could be my connection. Did you know that you can get a "click now to talk to a live operator" option? When I saw the pic of the lady with the headset I thought you had the option. I am not that familiar with the option, just looking for someone else to try it out.

Re: I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


I'm using internet explorer, the most recent version, and viewing on a laptop set to 1280 x 800, and a lot of the text is overlapping other blocks of text and pictures. The fact that no-one else has mentioned this makes me wonder if it's the way my computer is set up.
On the other hand, I don't get that problem with any of the other websites I view

Apart from that I think it looks like a professional website but perhaps a bit cluttered, perhaps a bit to much on one page.

Also, far too many "we"s. Apparently potential customers hate being we'ed on

Re: I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


I've just had a look, and a listen, to the video. I noticed, at the end, "all rights reserved". Do those rights include the Animals? Were they Ok about you using their recording?

Re: I Know You Guys Will Be Honest..


John, its not your computer or settings, a few others have mentioned some issues with that resolution as well. I also agree it is too self promoting and thats a bore. Thanks for the input!

PS: new video does not use royalty recording.

That's the same problem I get. Using Firefox running at 1280 x 720.
