Hi, I'm new so I don't know everything...yet I thought your site was very easy to read and to the point. I liked how you had different categories of virtual assistance. The page took a little longer to load but not drastically.

Looks great in general. Just some observations:
- Under Exec Level description: "collaberatively" & "business" are spelled wrong
- Also under Exec Level: after "services include ..." should there be some kind of ":" or "-"? Not sure if you meant to leave that blank or not - it works either way probably, but might flow better with some kind of punctuation leading into your service list there.
- Under Admin Level: seems to be an extra space after "office tasks such" (possibly)
- Under Realtors: "implementation" is spelled wrong
- Under Careers: is there supposed to be a link to the COE? The yellow box doesn't link to anything so I'm just curious, b/c it reads as if you're providing something for aspiring subs to review.

Very clear & easy to navigate though, good job. HTH!

Hi,

I like the clarity of the white background with the colors you chose.

I did think the text was a little small in the body of the main page.

I also noticed that the url is mybalancedact while the site is balancingact. Usually the url matches the domain name of the company. Perhaps it is purposeful and I am wrong.

Your icons are very nice. I particularly like the Blog icon which took me to a nice blog.

You're doing a great job.

Jan

I didn't actually look at the content in detail, but the layout of your site is really great! You did a really nice job - it looks clean and you can tell you put forth some effort with it. Did you design on your own?

I like the choice of fonts (I really like the retro-looking fonts) and I also like how the site takes the width of the screen and you really don't have to scroll down to see all the content. I had a co-worker who HATED to scroll through a site or email message so I know he'd totally dig your concept.

Good job!

Thank you all so much! I'll work on the misspellings; it was such a looooong day working on that yesterday, and after a while my eyes got really blurry! And yes, the yellow sticky note should be linking to the Code of Ethics page. I thought I did that!

Also, the name of my company is Balancing Act, but almost every form of that name was taken for a website. My Balanced Act was the best that I could do without changing my name.

I used Wix.com to design the site. They have some really great templates, but I made this one from scratch with the tools that they provide. They only charge $9.90 per month to point to your domain, which I think is a steal. It took me a while to get used to their stuff, but if anyone is interested in using their site to build their own, I'm willing to help in any way that I can.

Thanks again for your critique!

April Sullivan
