New site...have a look...feedback please - 3/12/2008 14:04:58
New guy here. Been building sites for myself since mid 90's. Consulted and reviewed sites while working at university. Built one for pay last year and now getting into it more (and photography).
Have a look at my site and let me know what you think.
DaubertDesign.com
Thanks, Daubs

There are a couple of errors on the inner pages - nothing that can't be fixed easily.
I'd also look at:
1. Adding a focus event for your navigation items - where you've got #navigation a:hover {etc} I'd make it:
#navigation a:focus, #navigation a:hover, #navigation a:active {etc}
That will then work for keyboard users and IE!
2. Add labels to your form to help it's accessibility - especially since you're using a table to organise the form.
3. Make the data table on your hosting page a bit more accessible by adding in TH etc in - more details here

I'm not an SEO expert, but I would avoid having a header <h4>Under Construction</h4>
Present Clients
or
Design Stage
etc.
might work better

btw, you may not have a large portfolio, but I like your work.

nice site. just one comment. even though you have small portfolio, you already are a tad repititious with color combos. we all do it - certain colors we prefer. however, it selling to others with their own taste, you might want some diversity in there. just a thought. (I am usually thoughtless)

very true
You ask the client what they colors want, and they leave it to you.
You post a great looking, and almost original site..... then they want blue+grey

Nice professional looking design, everything is well aligned and ood use of white space.
The text is easy to read and the colours are gentle, although I might like a bit more colour pizazz - personal taste.
I love the logo.
From an e-commerce perspective (I'm using criteria from a course I'm taking for Internet Application Programming to critique the site):
- its immediately obvious what your site is about and you're selling your service right away on the home page
- Easy to navigate and get required information
- I would like a bit more pricing information - perhaps a few more examples added to the "for under $500.00" one.

It is a very nice site, the first impression is quite good. The first page is simple and clear, I like it as it is very effective on showing what the site is about. Overall color scheme is simple but to me it is a good thing.
One thing though, seems little bit odd initially when seeing the site is offering services on web site design and photography at the same time ;-) Oveall is very good site.
PS. Comments are based on the knowledge learned from my study of E-commerce course as an Internet Applications Programmer student.
