Please don't take these comments the wrong way, but...

First impressions, quite amature looking. I would not invest in a web design project with a company who's site looks like that.

For starters, I'd lose the ads at the top and bottom, or place them a little better.

If you're going to be serious about the site, and business you need a domain name and your own hosting (not free).

On the samples page you should have some thumbnails, instead of just links to the images, that page looks very bland.

You should also look at your website copy, some sentences make it sound very amature, eg;

"For right now we're going to put the prices on this page so we have somewhere to put them."

That would just sound better if you said something like "Here are our current prices. Please feel free to contact us to request a free quote"

There are no meta tags, keywords, description etc., meaning that it's not SE optimised very well. If you can't do it on your own site what makes you think that you can "help you put your business on the map, send it to places you never thought your business could go"?

You should be looking at some competitors sites, for example (after a quick google)...

http://www.sophicinc.com/
http://www.website-optimisation.org/
http://www.zincweb.co.uk/design.htm

Add your site to the list and have a quick glance at each of them. Which site, based on apperance only, would you be likely to buy webdesign from (as if you were a customer)?

I would say to try the requests/contensts forum for a template, but as you're providing web design it'd be better to get more experience.

I wish you luck with your design and hope you don't take these comments the wrong way.

Cheers
Simon

your first mistake is using cheap ad riddled free hosting. either use someone that offers you adless pages like www.hostingspace.org, or buy a domain. secondly, it needs to be more fluid. everything looks blocky and doesnt fit well.

good luck with it.

I'm not selling my stuff just yet. i have it on a free domain name because im not selling just yet. I'm trying to get feed back on what i need to fix. I know its very amature. it's ment to be. i'm looking at the basic design factor. I'll readjust it later i just want to get peoples impression factor about it. Im in the process of makeing a better one. The reason im not doing it for real (which is pretty obvious in many ways) is that im not quite experienced enough yet. As you can see i didnt even add css or anything. once i get all the feedback i need you'll see my site out there selling sites and selling my services but unill then im just perfecting everything i know and learning a few new things along the way. So everyones feed back is vital to the creation of my site and i appresiate it.

Yeah there is always room for improvement. I mean if you want to use a premade template. You can always find them all over the internet. Those buttons are way to big and the content is very low. It looks like a 5 minute job. But what i do like about your site is the colors on how they match. You did a pretty good job on the colors matching.

As of right now im redesigning my whole site but the only bad thing is, is that im going to be using iframes. I know its not the best but i want to try it out and see how it works. Be on the look out for it within the next week or so.

Ok that is a serious mistake and imo waste of time. Yes I know that css is a bit hard to wrap your head around, and I'm speaking from experience. But if you are serious about getting actual customers, then you have to compete with the status quo, which is css. By using frames and or tables, your site will look dated and not professional.

If you would like some help please check out my site and let me know if you want to acquire my services (hosting, domain reg etc...).
