Overall, I would say that the site looks great!

One thing I would change in your header, at the top of each page, is the size of the "$28.95" ball. It appears larger than your site logo and takes away from the logo quite a bit.

Navigation was easy to follow and understand. On the FAQ page, put an index of the questions at the top of the page so visitors don't have to scroll through the entire page to see if their question is addressed.

On the "Contact Us" page I would shrink the image of the telephone and make the page a lot easier to read without scrolling.

Again, great site overall. Good luck!

I have only two comments to add to the ones made previously.
1. a link to your home page should be on the top of the page (in addition to the one on the bottom).. it is important to give your visitor ease of navigation.. don't make them scroll to get back home.
2. you should put more informational text on your index page.. perhaps you could take some of the text from the "program details" page and use it on your index page... most viewers like to know as much as possible immediately.

Can you really offer an on-line traffic school that is recognized by the courts in Florida?

I like the individuality and the photos used as buttons, they provide a nice theme for the site.

Here are some suggestions to make your site more user friendly.

I agree that the price teaser should not be larger than the logo itself and draws away from it. Sometimes less is more when it comes to graphics.

Currently, the user is forced to immediatelly scroll in order to read important info throughout the site, I would recommend a left aligned vertical navigation system, which will allow you to bring your content up to eye level allowing the user to see the most important sales component of your site, your content.

Additionally, you should work on your SEO in order to improve search engine ranking.

Good luck with your website,

thank you all for your input- I've been making html sites for just a few weeks now- I used to do sites in flash only before I learned it was an unwuse thing to do for loading purposes and Search Engines. Technically I am the SEO, and applying what information I can pick up in forums like these. Metas are in place, keyword content is placed reasonably well in most cases (at least i hope so) - and it's a brand new site so the engines haven't picked it up yet- I just submitted it last week. More info on the index would be better and the home page link would help as well- yes, we offer internet traffic school in Florida. In fact, we form affiliates to do business there throughout the country. My best affiliate is in California and does no other form of advertising other than search engines- so needless to say, I am trying to duplicate that success with this site, but I am kind of far behind. Thank you all
