The first thing I notice that you need a someone to write your content for you. There are a bunch of grammar errors that make it look un-professional. I also find the colours of the boxes on the front page hard on the eyes.

Next I looked at the code and you don't have a robots meta tag. You have also included styles on each page instead of having them in a seperate stylesheet. I realize that you have some styles in a stylesheet but not all. I would look at the W3C standards for coding HTML and CSS to make sure that you are standards compliant. Being standards compliant will help to future proof your site.

I would also suggest that you have a 'selected' state for your menu so that people know where they are on your site.

The text effect on your october special graphic makes it really hard to read. I would suggest that you change that to make it more readable.

This looks like one of those free templates that you can get with hosting.

You should really go for a more unique look. You can actually get a simple 5 page website designed for under $800. That is what my company charges. (provided your text is supplied. It is more expensive for us to write the text).

I do like the lighthouse banner at the top - I would recommend taking this theme throughout your webpage rather than just at the top.

You have 3 Flash Ads and One big image that doesn't complement with your theme of website.. You can try to remove the 2 flash ads and have them replaced with something more useful for your target customers and market. Then, you can also try to crop the big header image that you have to save on your space and then put a little text there that says something unique to sell about your business. Have the text optimized to a level that the search engines will like and use the Google Keyword tool to arrive at the perfect text to put on your header. Try to shorten your title tags too as they will be useful in making your pages more crawlable for the search engines.

Default Dont trust curtis

I wouldnt trust anything curtis says.. Anyone who goes round others threads and slanders them is obviously just a nasy piece of work.
He also shows that he has no idea what he is talking about.
Do not trust anyone who just spends their time slandering and insulting others.

When you are going to select a web host for your website then you need to know the essential requirements of your website. Sometime it happens we choose a hosting provider for our website, which all services are not required by our website. Managed IT
