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.
