Thank you so much Leanne -- it has been a lifetime dream for both my husband and myself! (Now I really am motivated to focus on getting clients to keep those wheels turning!)

I love it. It's clean and clear. The only thing I would changes is to remove the image links from the row of pictures on the main page, because they just enlarge the individual pictures, no information, doesn't add anything. Good job.

Hi Leanne,
I agree with most of the comments above. Your website is very easy clean and straightforward and I like that. I don't have much to offer in terms of the "design" of the website as I'm not a pro in that area - that's why I'm not doing my website myself But when it comes to text it's a different story..lol.
Just a few things I noticed - I feel the "About" section should come before the services and pricing etc., because this gives a PC an idea of your background and your capabilities.
In your "services" I found there was no consistency from one area to the next. The text in the "organization" and "bookkeeping" sections were smaller and more spaced out compared to the other two sections where the text is bigger. I would also change the bullets in the "organization" section so it is consistent with the other sections.
In terms of spelling and grammar here's a few that I found - it should read "According to the Vermont Department.."
- "And that figure does not include the cost of office space, equipment, software, and materials!"
- I will assist you myself or if it is beyond my scope, I will help you to find another qualified service provider (I also took out the comma after "or")
- "Do you advertise hit and miss with no plan or budget?" This sentence seems awkward to me. Perhaps "Is your advertising hit or miss with no plan or budget"?
I also noticed a few sentences where you used commas before and after the words "or" and "and". These should be removed because you don't need them.
Sorry for the long post but I guess it's just in me to look for errors in text and I think it's important for your website to be error free because it is a marketing tool.
Good luck with everything!

Leeanne,

I just checked your site and agree with the others that it is a bit confusing on what you do. At the very top you have in tiny letters "Administrative Assistant", they look shadowed. Maybe if you made them larger and bolder. When I clicked on the pictures, it just took me to a larger picture, is this supposed to happen? I thought it would take me to another page with services, rates, calculator, etc.
I do like the Quote from Ben Franklin, that is a positive added touch. I don't have a website yet, so kudo's to you for getting yours up and running! Best of luck to you.

Thanks again to everyone, especially for your careful editing suggestions. I'll be making improvements, starting with the home page.

Hi Leanne,
your website is really great. One of the best I have seen (in the Wordpress themed category that is). Only tiny improvements I would recommend, slightly larger print size, and center your main page which will require making your testimonial on the right size smaller. Do you offer search engine optimization services?

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Roy.

I don't do website optimization. This is my first website, so I'm just learning. I'll optimize it a little at a time, though first I want to do some copy and design changes based on the comments here.

At the moment I'm getting most of my work from networking and word of mouth and am not relying on web hits. Though I've done administrative work for many years, I'm new to the virtual side of this business and so am content to be growing slowly as I tweak my systems. I want to be able to build a solid client base by delivering more than I promise.

Good luck on your business.

Leanne
