Looking at some examples that I have seen.... My site may need some work to be up to others

So look at it and if your list is to long for things that need to be changed.... then just stop at #30

Be gentle,

Hi Sheena

The first thing I would say is that you should purchase a domain name rather than use a free web site service such as Office Live. www.cooperservices.com is aready taken but looking at NetNames website, it is actually due for renewal on Saturday! www.coopervaservices.com is available though at a cost of $140 (just a slight change in name and SEO optimisation shouldn't make much of a difference during a Google search).

With regards to the actual content of your pages, I can see many grammatical and puctuation errors and the text doesn't flow as well as it should. The fonts/sizes are different on each of your pages - lacks continuity. Your About Us page doesn't read well due to incorrect usage of commas and periods. Also other incorrect punctuation eg does;nt should read doesn't.

Also on your About Us page you mention your services and rates are listed below but you don't have them on your page at all.

Make sure that any reference to your email address is hyperlinked for ease of use by prospective clients. If they have to copy and paste your email address into an email - they won't! Make it easy for people to contact you.

Without wanting to sound brutal, if I was reading your site as it stands at the moment from a prospective client's point of view, your grammar and punctuation would put me off - it doesn't make you look professional at all.

I am happy to help you rewrite the contents if you would like to make a small donation to a charity I support in Kenya (but would have to be some time next week as I am busy today preparing a presentation to make to my network group tomorrow morning).

Hope the above helps but don't get disheartened - we've all been where you are now!

Dawn

It doesn't turn me off at all.... I thank you for looking it over. I fixed a few grammar errors I did see. I will reread and continue to read it for clarity and flow.

Also the rates and services are listed at the bottom of the about us paragraph.

When I open the About Us page in IE7, the paragraphs stop at
....

Wouldn't you like to join this list? Check out our services and rates listed below.
And there is nothing showing below that. It is OK and all is showing in Firefox though. Have you checked how it looks in other browsers eg Opera and Google Chrome?

No I have only checked in fire fox. I took your advice and purchased a domain. I will check in other browsers when I return it is 5:15am and I am sleepy now. Thank you again.

I would still love some feedback please. I am also checking the site in other browsers.
