    Hey, This is Laura (Daves daughter) i just had a look at your website... its nice, u got all the info you need on there, but i think your home page needs working on.. the block paragraph is quiet off putting special on the first page, i think you need all the info there made it into short meaningfull bullet points and maybe add a picture to the home page, plus the company name should be more bold..

    The jobs you've done do look great ... can you get any more to add to it ?!

    ..Hope this helps,

    Laura.. (design student in university)

    just looked again..

    it may look better if you can put before and after pictures on there of your jobs, as people who arent familiar with poshed stone may want to see how bad it can get, to how clean it can become!


    Laura,

    Make the background a solid color also the menues to the left to many lines going on.................

    The alt tags on your images cleaning natural stone are little use, change them to sumin like restored jerusalem stone,, cleaned and polished random size crema mafil

    Alts under ceramics need doing also

    Your meta and keywords. there are more words to describe what you do other than cleaning people wont just use that they may use renovation, stripping, resurfacing etc etc

    Going now

    Because the domain name Gem services has been taken years ago by somebody else...So i came up with poshstonefloors as the website.

    i did not check for typos Enduro, i just looked ant thought "nice site" as will your customers!!!!!

    but you are right....a virgin site always needs tweeks, but the overall layout and construction is 9/10!!!! and that is as good as it gets!!!

    for a 10/10 i would have to think your site is better than mine!!

    well done, great work!

    Lee...aka Dagger!

    under closer inspection
    1. "posh stone floors" should be a logo not a web address
    2. it says nothing about you fixing tiles!!!!!!
    3. there is no "about me/us"
    other than those points,........ i think you are onto a winner!!!!!

    congrats again!

    I'm sorry if I p on your fire buddy, really I am. But I know your paying top $ for this so I think its only fair I give you my honest opinion.

    I'm not keen.

    There is no graphics used at all. All the fonts are standard word fonts including the header which I think should at least include a logo that is connected to your company. I'm sure you have one.

    I think its basic which is a good point but a site that looks to basic can be conceived as cheap or lazy. There is scope for lots more like a links page. VERY important in your google rankings.

    And I know its been mentioned but I have to agree that I really dont like the background image. Its over zoomed in on there for leaving it heavily pixelated.

    As I said please dont jump down my throat I'm just trying to help you buddy. I think your web designer has been a bit lazy.

    You may all disagree but I just say as I see.
