Sorry Stacey, I guess I was kind of tired when I posted my site. It should have read. Also after looking, what do you think about boarders being used.

No problem Dolores

Took a look at your site there and I loved it I love simple, non fussy websites and that is exactly what you did, so for me that worked.

There was a few things that I noticed that perhaps I would change. First the symbol above your links like Home etc is slightly off (needs to be moved up ever so slightly). Another thing which I feel needs clarified is on your rates page you state that your hourly price for transcription is $XX - is this per audio hour or per hour actually worked? This may confuse some clients.

Lastly I personally thought that the size of font selected for your links to your pages on the side were slightly too big. When I was reading your website I was constantly distracted by this.

Other than those few minor points I think it looks great, good job!

Thanks Stacey for your feedback on my website. I had questions regarding stating my rates and also asked questions over this forum, your input re: same helps along with your other suggestions. What do you think about boarder?

What do you mean about border? Do you mean do I think you should have one, if so, then no i don't. I love your website the way it is without it But as I said I like crisp, simple websites so maybe a good idea to get a few peoples opinion on that one

I don't see why you shouldn't put your rates in but just meant that the rate you quoted for transcription should state if it is per audio hour or per actual hours worked

I'm busy trying to get my website up and running so will soon be asking for feedback on mine too

Thanks Stacey. I understood what you meant regarding the way my rates were quoted, and will change same. The border was to go around the right side of my site since there seems to be so much unused space on that side.

Just wanted to make sure I was clear on that

Well whatever you feel is best really as it's your website and something you should like. Play around with a border then and see what you think of it - or you could add it then repost here for an opinion

Hi Dolores,

I like your website. The only minor tweaks that I would make/recommend, resize your left navigation menu--I would just make it a bit smaller to be more proportional to the body.

Also, I would only bold the titles/subheadings and not the text (except where I wanted to provide emphasis in the body).

Great job.
