As Ed points out, there are a number of spelling, grammar and usage  
errors on the pages that distracts from the overall (quite attractive)  
design. 
 
I.e. 
 
HOME PAGE 
======== 
 
vaued           -->     valued 
 
memeber         -->     member 
 
inlcludes               -->     includes 
 
Doccumentation  -->     Documentation 
 
reqire          -->     require 
 
 
and 'lead developer' should be 'lead developers' 
 
and '::-'  should be just ':' 
 
and 'develop' should be 'developer' 
 
(also, I notice that links disappear when I put the mouse over them --  
not a good idea) 
 
CONTACT PAGE 
========== 
 
  Down at the bottom left-hand corner of the page I can see: 
span>. 
 
CLIENTS PAGE 
========= 
 
Down at the bottom left-hand corner of the page I can see: 
n>. 
 
 
I was wondering whether this was a general problem so I checked one of  
your portfolio sites, the Grand Prince Hotel -- with the following  
results: 
 
opening page 
========== 
 
luxerious               -->     luxurious 
 
ornamentaly     -->     ornamentally 
 
equiped         -->     equipped 
 
mordern         -->     modern 
 
travelers               -->     travellers 
 
magnificant     -->     magnificent 
 
personalied     -->     personalised 
 
hermony         -->     harmony 
 
fulfill         -->     fulfil 
 
........... and 'pleaseCONTACT US!' should be 'please CONTACT US!' 
 
......... and "it's" should be "its" 
 
......... 'five star hotel,' should be 'five star hotels;' 
 
.........  'mouth watering'  should be 'mouth-watering' 
 
......... 'meet your all expectations' should be 'meet all your  
expectations' 
 
........ 'on an affordable price.'  should be 'at an affordable price.' 
 
 
To be taken seriously as a web site producer, you do need to take care  
that the text is up to the standards that your visitors -- and clients  
-- expect. 
 
I'd suggest that you put all your copy through an English-language  
spelling/grammar checking program (such as that with MS Word). 
 
Regards.
