The whole left panel from the menu down is off by 1 px to the left. I agree, template monster = yuck. BTW the "Company News" image literally does not match anything. It is a sore thumb on the layout.

I wouldnt want to use flash on ANY site, true that MOST people have flash, but you are not designing a website for you, but yourcustomers.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-design-reviews/134116-please-review-my-hosting-site.html

The one person that doesn't have flash will come to your site, not see anything leave and not buy.

And he was the guy that was going to tell 10 of his friends.

Template Monster makes flashy websites in flash and sells them off cheap. Their templates are stolen and are all over the internet.

Your website has probably a few hundred that look just like it somewhere else out there.

Be creative, be honest, work hard.

Template Monster might make templates with tons of flash, but they AREN'T designing for real web surfer customers, they are designing for Webmasters.

They make up neato looking websites true, but whats the point of the site being neato if it takes 5 minutes to load on somoenes 28k laptop.

The end product of any website should be it was designed with the customer in mind, not you the designer. THAT is why you come here to get opinions.

Here is a site I designed for a company.

http://www.adcapitol.com

Very ugly site, I would have LOVED to have made it differently, BUT the company actually did studies and had a poll on the site with feedback forms.

The website sells products to Walmart, Home Depot and Lowes, Pepsi, Coca Cola.

It's not pretty but they know what their customers want, it's not flashy graphics, it is a great reliable quality product.

Your webhosting is a great quality reliable product right?

So show that.

No one cares about your web design skills, they want to know what your uptime is, where to go if they need help, what your server connections are...

Yaa alexis that site does hurt my eyes, hmm so why do people go to those sites with high price plans but have better lookings sites ? any reason for that ? Cause its confusing when i started i got 4 customers in mere 2 days and its been 2 months now and still only 9 customers , so maybe design is something that does matter a bit.

Not "Better looking sites", more professional looking sites.

1and1.com

Go look at them and then look at you.

a1whs.com · 11-22-2005, 10:02 PM

1&1.com are not preferred by many due to support issues . But yaa if you mean clog the site with content that many dont have time to read yaa sure i will on next editing adventure make something else, with lots of content.
