September 24, 201015 yr I've just updated the look of my directory. I'm trying to show that my site is more that just a standard directory. Please let me what you think?
September 25, 201015 yr It is quite nice, but a little text heavy on the index page imo. Also, the paragraph text is too light on the white background. I would consider changing the font colour rather than the background colour though. "FIND PROFESSIONAL WEBDESIGNERS" is an image file. Consider making that the H1 and the other headings H2 but a bit larger and a darker blue. Font would probably be better at something like #1C1C1C than it's current colour.

I have used a lot of text as this helps my site appear high in Google searches (quite important, for a site like mine). I chose to make the text lighter as I did not want to detract too much from the search, which is the most important feature on the site. Plus a I chose to make that header an image as a result of SEO. Although I wanted to make that sentance clear to visitors, the header below that is better for my SEO. Although the text in that header appears to be the same as the others, it is infact a H1 whilst the others are H2. I do appreciate your comments. It is important to gain other people opinions.
September 25, 201015 yr It is very clean, but doesn't feel very personable. I think it would be good for B2B in technical fields, but unfortunately, visitors are going to be judging the creativity of your website while searching for others. Maybe add in some social eye candy with some neat jQuery?

Thanks for the explainations. SEO isn't one of my strong points and it is brilliant to read what other people do to increase their search results and google rankings.
September 26, 201015 yr Author Can I ask what software you used for this? Cheers Plain and simple HTML with a touch of flash!
September 27, 201015 yr Plain and simple HTML with a touch of flash! Ahhh.... Cool! I trying to find a good link directory software. I like that yours looks modern than the usual directories. Thanks again.
