  • Opinions on my web from other pros,

    Hello,

    well iam working up a web site to better serve my clients and get more work and my name out, as you know iam located in Chile so my site is in spanish.
    the background image was downloaded from the internet while i get a nice exotic car to work on, also the site is based on webs.com so its a free site, and i worked on it myself this couple of days (i dont have much experience) well tell me what you think if you were a customer. thanks alot guys.

    The tile effect with the image is distracting to me.

      If/when it goes live, you need to dump the ads on the free site. You might want to shorten the pages so people can see all of it or most of it on a signal screen.

        Se ve muy bien, y me gusta el proverbio de la biblia que tiene mas abajo. Y en el la pagina del proceso hay muchos detailles y se ve que has hecho mucho trabajo y has pensado en lo que esta en su sitio. Como he vivido en Guatemala y tengo familia alla ahora, puedo comprender que encortar clientes puede presentar una dificultad, pero este sitio web te va a ayudar mucho. Cuantos coches haces al mes? Tienes otros negocios o solamente trabajas con "auto detailing"?

        Looks good, but lose the free site and buy a domain, unless its not that important to you. Its sleek and modern, +1

          I agree with what's been said thus far. The back ground tile doesn't look quite right. Less scrolling on each page would make it more user friendly. Personally, I would remove the bible verse from the site. I don't believe in mixing religion with business.

          Also paying for hositng and eliminating the ads would give you a more crisp classic look. In this case, you have a high dollar luxury car in the background, but the ads on the page come from Ford.

          Overall, not bad though.

            It's a very good start . I would add some white space (blank lines) between the bullet points so they don't all run together, and break up the opening paragraph into 3 sentences.

            Also, I really like the pictures. I think it would be very effective to have one or 2 of the picture frames switch between a single before and single after picture of a car. The impact would be much greater.

            Nice work

              would a color be better?

              thanks!, i chose the verse because basicaly it says iam more interested in reputation than in money.. i have looked at it alot and think of what could be made better. iam actualy starting so thats why i made a free site for now, this is just another step into my buisness, i have recieved very good comments from clients, and just met a person that i did a car for and now he wants his other 4 done and mantained weekly. word is getting around and i was actualy called by my only other competitor a couple of days ago saying that one of HIS clients gave him my site jaja... i just started here with the detailing in chile and iam probably doing about 1 a week, but buisness is growing and i will like to make it full time work. for now the free site is working great (its better than not having web space) but will soon get a disigner to make one in exchange for a detail.. Thanks

              i also dont know what to do in the background, maybe a color instead of image? the verse hasnt given me any problems (got an atheist client a couple days ago) and have recieved some compliments on it.. for now i have the free site, but i will be going for a domain and hosting as soon as i can. Thanks

              Thanks, that's what it is a START!! i will be getting my page professionaly designed and hosted, but for now and getting some site working its good enough, you are right about the pictures, having a before and after would be better that showing them in the detailing order.

                also a friend sent me this today after talking to him about a design on a card, i wanted to go with a simple design, no car pictures or things like that.

                  I am just curious, why is everything in spanish, except for the business name and your title? And I think moving to your paid hosting is a wise investment.
