Re-designing for work
I still prefer the first design

Am I wrong to charge this much
Would help if you showed us the website in question, to see the quality of work etc.. But basically what I would do is work out what you charge per hour, lets say £10, x 60 hours = £600 + any costs. If you think £1000 is a fair reflection of your work, then charge it.

Web Design Magazines
I have subscribed to the .net magazine, I too like having something physical to read for a change. If you get a yearly subscription it works out around £3.50 so its not that bad. I also read Smashing Magazine on a regular basis - I no its only online

Keywords and phrases / split long phrases?
If you are wanting to rank highly if someone types in north west product design then its best to try and get that complete phrase in there at least once. Saying that, I believe its always best to write for the customers and not the search engines, so if the sentence wouldn't make sense then I would leave them separate!

SEO in spare time / adding to google every day
You submit your URL to Google everyday? You should only submit your website once (most times you don't even need to do this!). I’d recommend you don't submit your site anymore. If you say you already have good content and its optimised for the keywords you want, then you need to start working on link building and other off page optimisation tactics. In my opinion you can start with the following: - Directory Submissions - Blog Commenting - Forum Posting You need to get relevant links to your website. Tip: instead of the link being "Company Name" change it to be a keyword instead. If you post your link, ill be happy to have a quick look over your website.

Hey Everyone
Hi, Have just joined the forum so thought I'd introduce myself to everyone. My names Chris, I currently live in Ashford, Kent where I work for nbat Digital. I primarily specialise in Search Engine Optimisation where I have built up a reputable portfolio but am also starting to work on my web design skills. I have around 2 years experience using HTML and CSS and have just started learning Javascipt. I’ll try and contribute to any questions (if I can ). Chris

Re-designing for work
Depends what kind of look you are going for. I prefer the top one, as the second one has a big corporate feel about it.

I prefer the social networking buttons where they are now - its really starting to take shape! Keep up the good work.

Wrapper? Confusion in css template
People usually use #wrapper and #container divs to centre web pages on the monitor. Is your website currently aligned to the left of your monitor? If you so if you add the following to your #wrapper and it should centre - making it more pleasing to the eye. #wrapper { width: 900px; margin: 0px auto; text-align: left; } I can only think the reason it is there is to allow you to easily centre the page.
