Feedback on Website

• Take your name out of the <h1> tag (headline). Replace it with a keyword-rich heading.
• Add a hard to miss call to action. Graphical buttons work well. It can be beautiful or ugly, but it needs to be obvious.
• Add one or two other more subtle calls to action in the form or hyperlinks in your body text.
  
  Examples: "Click here for Rates" "Click for more information" "Get instant Quotes."
• Add your phone number near the top of the page in a large font.
• Repeat your phone number and call to action on the bottom of the page.
• For the next week or so, make a note of websites (any kind of site, not necessarily insurance sites). Don't put much thought into this part of the process. Just note the ones that you like. Make a list of them or bookmark them.
• You might want to ask a friend to do the same and share his or her list with you.
• After you have one or two dozen sites, look at them again and try to find commonality.
• Read "Don't Make Me Think" by Steve Krug.

I think you should give some offers to your customers and show it on the index page of your site.

I think you should give some offers to your customers and show it on the index page of your site.

Offers? Um, in the State of Florida, that's a big no-no. Even in the lead generation biz, which is much more liberal than the state of FL .

Offers like free-ring tones? lol

I agree with other posters, get rid of the dark background. Makes the text harder to read. If you want to keep the background leave it only on the left and right margins, with the center of the site white.

You could also use some font styling. IMO, the Times New Roman looks a bit dated on websites these days. And I'd ditch the amazon affiliate ad too, makes the site look cheap (unless this is your way of making money from the site).

Just my two cents on the basics.

Thanks I am about to redo the whole site in the next few days. I am taking a different approach.

I think the dark blue background is a little bit too much. I also think that you should use some nice pictures and user brighter colors. I also noticed that you have some typos on your page and that actually looks very unprofessional. Nevertheless I can see what you want and I am of the opinion that you are heading in the right direction.

I know that I need a domain name but I am trying to get the site looking and ready before I do so. Please look this site I created over and let me know what you think, or what I should change.

Thanks and don't be too brutal.

So simple (in a bad way). It also hurts my eyes. The blue does not mix well with the white text.

The content is good. The design is the letdown.

If you have time, please have a look at my website too...

Please be honest... I want you to be brutal... it's more constructive for me that way.
