I respect your site and what you have put into it but what is hurting you is the overall "look" of your website. If you compare the LOOK of your website to the other sites listed, those other sites look more reputable. Invest in a cleaner logo or take away that spattered paint look - but...

Not happening...Look how long IE7 has been out and now IE8 is already knocking on the door. If Microsoft was really to "PUSH" it's customers to upgrade, they would have done so already. I *CAN* style for ie6 but to tell you the truth, I'm tired of it. I hope everyone else who reads this is too.

First of all, you should put your pages in either a section blog or category blog layout...Your pages are very long with lots of articles in them which is kind of overkill. You will have better success if your pages are a little more organized with your content shortened into multiple pages. By...

First off - do a GLOBAL reset of your CSS components: html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; outline: 0; font-size: 100%; } Next, style your body tag: body { margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align...

http://cache.autoanything.com/images/website3/footer/footer_shadow_frame_gray_1k.gif If you pick the site apart, you can see the effect done. There are hundreds of ways to do this. http://triumphrigparts.com/ Here is a site where we abused the shadowing technique in a custom design. Now, take...

Internet Explorer 6 is a pain because it doesn't render PNG files properly and restricts developers by forcing us to use excessive scripts (iepngfix.htc). Since IE6 is nearly dead with only 17% online users still using it, I want to rally a campaign to put an end to this browser to help "push"...

To work with your layer - since you're not working much with your z-index. I would suggest that you do this: #header h1 img { position: relative; text-align: center; margin: 0 auto; } Or you can also try this- #header h1 img { position: absolute; top: 20px; left: 50%...

How new is this forum? I always see at most 3-5 people or less logged on at any given time. Just wondering. Maybe there are ways to get this site some more momentum? I don't know.

I would go to Amazon.com - find some good books on xHTML / CSS if you want to learn about web design. Then buy some photoshop WOW books and learn how to do the most recent tricks. Use Lynda.com once you feel you are up to speed on everything else. I wasted a good chunk of money on a...

You Don't Conquer Google You get good rankings by having a very relevant site with the following: Quality Content Quality Backlinks Quality Social Networking inbound links Quality Outbound Links Substantial Traffic Notice the keyword "QUALITY?" You don't want a bunch of poor quality...

It's quite busy for a home page - everything fits well but when you have such a big left content area that is almost 1/2 of your page, a visitor's eyes will not know where he/she is supposed to be directed. The design, look, colors, icons, and images are very well done. Wouldn't change...

A good way to check your content is to make sure your readability scores well (if writing in English) http://www.addedbytes.com/tools/readability-score/

What people need to focus on is having good content. Google doesn't base your page rankings from how many backlinks you have or how many meta keywords or outbound links. Focus on writing quality content that is relevant to what you do and if you site is new, optimize your site for your regional...

For starters, creating a website for "web design" is one of the most difficult markets to break into - since you are not Geotargeting your SEO, you're making an attempt to knock off sites that have been around for several years with guys who have been doing SEO and know SEO very well. Start...

Hi Gurlme, Take a look at some of our graphic designer's logo designs - http://modernmediastudios.com/services/graphic-design/custom-logo-designs.html Notice how he makes use of the space to the top right? That style is very popular but your logo (lightbulb) is too big. I think if you keep...

Here's a useful site - We like using this when trying to come up with some color schemes. Not to mention the site is another great brainchild of Adobe... http://kuler.adobe.com/ Great colors to use and they really do make your pages pop!

Web 2.0 is now another loosely thrown around term. Just like Internet Marketing/SEO - there are a lot of people who "claim" they are SEO/Internet Marketing because it's a hot selling ticket to generating business. The terms do have meaning but they are also heavily abused words in order to make...

Go to motorcycle events, biker bars, and anything else you can think of - bring a stack of business cards. I'm not talking about a handful- I mean a 1000 stack box of business cards with your forum on it. Walk around with your box. I'm SERIOUS. People will be curious to what you are handing...

From a visual standpoint - it's great. However, 90% flash sites are very hard to optimize. That being said, if your site is a niche market and you don't really need to push the marketing in your website - ignore what I said ;-) It's a good looking classy site.

To back up everybody's answer - how much time did you spend building the website? How much would you have charged per hour? What value does your client see in this website? The whole pricing subject is scary for new developers because most beginner developers don't know what the going rate is...
