mfalk -> Comments welcome. (4/2/2001 20:50:00)

Hi. Please take a look at www.websitedrive.com. It's been built as a simple site on purpose (incase anyone wanted to know). It's for local business web development. I'm looking to build simple sites as add ons to existing advertising by local businesses. I'm not a huge fan of BIG sites. You jump on then right off when it gets too confusing or you cant find what you're looking for right away. The average person stays on a page for 15 seconds or less. If they can't find what they are looking for or they have to wait too long, they usually continue their search without waiting for your site to come up.

Anywho! Please take a look and send comments please. Gracias, Mark

I love it, I don't think it as at all simple looking. On the contact page, the contacts go a little too fast.

Looks okay to me, but set a body bgcolor.

Also, my personal preferrence -- I don't like links coming up in a "pop up" window unless they're maybe leaving the site. I would do away with this.

The layout and colors are very nice. In fact, I'm using the same colors on a site I'm working on now.

I'm not super-crazy about the pop-ups. I guess they're ok.

What's the deal with the View Presentation link? just another page? The graphic on the left side of that page looks rather out of place and chopped off at the top and bottom.

Overall, nice job.
Sandy

Oh, yeah...don't forget alt text for the graphics.

Goober, thanks for the comments. I usually don't like pop ups either. The only reason Im using them is to reduce the size of the site with minimal navigation. My point in selling a site to complement advertising is ease. You jump on, you get your info, you jump off. People remember ease and the ability to get the info they want quickly. They also miss less. A larger site with tons of links to pages is time consuming and I can guarantee most wont look past one or two pages.

The presentation page was an afterthought. It's a power point presentation i converted to html, then edited. Maybe I should RE EDIT. :-) Thanks for the comments.

V.small comment - The spelling of Quote on the Contacts scroll is Qoute.

Also check boxes may be easier for potential customers to register interest in the Qout form section.

Otherwise it is a nice looking site, good luck

Thanks Phil.
My friend and I are looking at it and started laughing. I cant believe I did that. We looked and both at the same time said..OHHHHHHHH.

Thank you for the comments.

In your body tag you forgot the text, link, alink, & vlink attributes.
