Any comments on not only the design of the website, but the content? Thanks all in advance.

Default Nice

That's a heck of a sales letter. The art of writing sales letters is kinda new to me so I'll stay outta that except to say it looks fine to me and you can tell someone put a lot of work into it.

Graphics and Web Design I do know so . ..

The top section, wouldn't it be cool if those two flames were animated? Like with some video of two different actual flames all close up like that. Putting a frame around them and displaying video with no controls is a snap w/ Flash.

Also all that outside scripting mixed w/ microsoftoffice stuff has had at least one weird side effect, or perhaps it was an oversight on web designer, your images are full sized images but displaying at small size.
That is to say you have several fullsized images like:
iStock_000000865662Small.jpg and it is 565px wide when you've got it sized down w/ html to 145px. At 565px the file size is apprx 31k, no matter what size it is strecthed or shrunken to w/ html
Solution?
Resize the image w/ your image editing software.


And isn't it a good thing to have some links to more of your own related pages near the top of the page (so it's a "site", not a "page"), for SEO purposes?
You do have a lot of content there, it could be broken into a few pages couldn't it?

Good luck

Default thank you

I have been stagnant in updating the site for some time because I lacked any good reasons to update. Thank you very much for your tips, they are excellent ideas that will help add to the users experience!

Default The main reason

The main reason I don't put links until the bottom of the page is to ensure that people reason the scientific information posted above. This topic readily has a lot fo confusion about it, and I felt that this tacktic would ensure that viewers read the information prior to entering subpages within the site.

If reading the info is really important, than I would suggest making it shorter and/or making navigable. As in a person could go right to a certian part of the message. (really there's like 4-6 pages worth of content on that one page)

But I suspect the real goal is to get them to buy something.

In that case I would also shorter the content even more and add some "sayings" short sententces top place in various spots throughout the page like "Get's clothes cleaner - Faster and Cheaper!"

Can't tell who your audience is. Are trying to speak sceince fake-gobbly-gook to welders? Well okay, but why so much of it?

As for the text itself, well it's muddled and confusing. I read the whole thing twice now and all I take away from it is that your selling some device that somehow makes welding torches better and maybe someday could be used in residential heating.
I don't see how it works, what it does how it would benefit me (if I was a welder), or even, If for some reason I wanted one, where I would get it, how much it would cost, how would it be delivered, could I even use it, would it work in my shop, is it warrantied etc.

It just seems like some machine cranked out random science words. In a world where people go around actually making money by selling "secrets to make your caqr run on water instead of gas" Your text lumps you right in there with them.

In fact I once met a drunken black dude that was dumba as a rock. But boy could he talk! The words - big and small just came pouring out of his mouth. but it was clear he had no idea what they meant. But he just keept pouring them out. It was entertaining for about 30 secs then made me irritated and annoyed. That's what your text reminds me of.

But I could be totally wrong, perhaps my 165-IQ and all this fine education has been ruined by too much drugs and my attention span ruined by too much MTV...
But I found it quite diificult to read your text. It made me irritated, annoyed and susupious.

Default probably too harsh...

I know I was harsh on you, but I thoughtmy first post did you a diservice by not mentioning your text. Perhaps I shouldn't do site review.
I just know that if it was me, I would want feedback like that, even though it would probably hurt.
But, really, I promise the intention was to help, not hurt.

Default No interest in selling things

On the contrary, I don't want to sell anything. The entire purpose of the website is to provide the necessary information required to squash unsubstantial stereotypes that are being perpetuated throughout society. Each little paragraph addresses something that has been hitherto un-clarified in the past. Thank you for the comments though, it will helpme reorganize the information to be more presentable. I got about a 145 or so, a little less than your but still up there. Im at Hofstra University in NY, and most of my Professors support me doing Graduate work on the subject matter. I promise each word, and each sentence I create has been precisely derived to convey a particular message. If you do spend the required time to comb through the material you will see eventually that it is meaningful, and rational although complex.
