Hi Robby!

I really like your website, and especially found the content to be clear, detailed and friendly. You seem to have a very personable and approachable attitude that comes through in the website.

I am also a web designer, and focus on the smaller and simpler stuff myself as well. I've been surprised to find how few professionals care to take on the smaller projects, at least in my community. It seems most designers want the big projects that make the big money. So it's nice to know there is a niche for our kind of service!

I do have some suggestions for your website, just some little things that I noticed as I was going over it. Take it or leave it as you wish, and as it makes sense for you.

• I would change or remove the big banner at the top, as I think it makes the site feel a bit cluttered and detracts from the simple elegance of the rest of the design.

• Put your menu along the top of the page, just above the main content, so it's right there when the site loads.

• I viewed the site on a small screen, 800 wide, and had to scroll over to view the content. I would recommend setting a fixed width and making it narrow enough to be easily viewed on smaller screens, as many small business owners are still viewing the web on small screens.

• Use thumbnail images in your portfolio of each of the sites to give a visual "teaser".

• I think your pricing could be set a bit higher, but I guess it depends on what you feel your time and services are worth. Just don't sell yourself too cheap!

I hope this is helpful, and again, use what makes sense to you and disregard the rest.
