Hi.

Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated. Also, if the site does not render correctly, if you could please tell me your computer type, operating system, browser type & version, it would be even more greatly appreciated.

Thanks to any who respond.

Adam

P.S. SEO input is also greatly appreciated.

your site looks good.. navigates easily and loads quickly..
I have only a few comments to make:
1. try to use a more readable, professional looking font... such as, Verdana or Arial... and use that font consistently throughtout your site.
2. You need to have someone check your sentence structure... you have sentences that are too long and can be broken up, such as the following from your index page:
"We believe in hands-on design, construction and customer service, from a small spa to a play pool to a back yard oasis, we pride ourselves in providing our clients with a tailor-made custom design that will exceed your expectations"
The above sentence should be broken up into two separate ones.

check out the following sentence:
"A new swimming pool can bring you years of enjoyment and is excellent family activities that will help you survive the long hot Phoenix summers. For about the price of a new car you can own your own pool that unlike a car will retain its value as well as increase the value "
The bold text is not good grammar...
The underlined text needs punctuation..

you site is good, but you must correct your grammar and syntax...

Good luck!

The black header does not go with the rest of the site.

Cayman Pool and Spa at the top of the page under the header blends into the page as does Every Pool We Build is a Custom Pool at the bottom of the page.

The text on the right side is really hard to read.

You have some great looking pictures the colors look good except for the text being hard to red and the header being black.

Over all a nice looking site.

Mary Ann,

Thanks for you positive input. I will see what I can do to get the aforementioned wrinkles smoothed out. Frankly, its a little embarassing... (I have a B of A in English).

In my meager defense, I have to tell you that all the copy was written by the owner of the company.

The good thing is that these corrections might be a good segue into more SEO friendly text.

Thanks again,

Adam

Janet,

I couldn't agree with you more regarding the black header. My original design had a blue header with white text and was much more... harmonious with the rest of the site.

Unfortunately, the owner very specifically requested I incorporate their business card into that space. As you've probably guessed, the cards are black with gold lettering.

Regarding the text on the right side being hard to read, now that you mention it, I think you're absolutely right. I don't know why I didn't realize it myself. Duh. I'll see what I can do to correct that.

Lastly, regarding "Cayman Pool and Spa" and "Every Pool..." I sort of did that intentionally. I wanted to include the information without making things too busy. I'll think about what you said, though.

Thank you!

Adam
