Hi everyone. I'm new here and I would like to have you guys check out the new launch of my website. It's in my signature below. We're not done working on it yet because there is so much to do but I'd like to get some feedback from anyone who is interested. Thanks. The website name is DiscountCourierRates.com.

Welcome! The first thing I noticed is that the Live Rate Quotes tab on your upper nav. bar stays highlighted, regardless of which tab I'm viewing. The video seems to be extremely slow to load, but that could be on my end, who knows? Generally, the layout seems to be good...lots of space and good color coordination, and your graphics are nice and crisp.
I did notice that your sign-in page is not secure. I don't know how much information will be present there, so perhaps you decided it wasn't necessary.

All in all, looks good, with only that couple of minor things that I noticed.

I can take or leave the web template appearance of the page, but I don't care for the blue-on-blue colour theme. Even with the content area drop shadows, I find it makes the text difficult to read and I'm certain that it won't print well.

Better to change the content area background to white and make the content text darker. It'll make the page more readable, your headings will stand out more.

You have two <h1> headings on your home page. This makes both of them less valuable in terms of SEO. Better to have one well optimized <h1> heading and format an <h2> the same way than to leave things as they are.

Your "Shipping Carriers" page isn't very well laid out and looks amateurish. I'd recommend that you make each logo the same size and shape. Balance out the page by using columns to space the logos out equally. Arrange them in an attractive manner so that they contrast each other.

Thanks for the input gentlemen. I will have my developer look at the h1/h2 settings and the carriers page is in the works - exactly as you suggested it should be. For now we're going to keep the color scheme but will be looking into a template change in the future. Again thank you so far for your input, the next time you look at it the heading tags and couriers page will have been changed.

OK everyone. I've had several of the suggestions implemented. We're going to be constantly trying to make our site user and search engine friendly. Any more suggestions are appreciated as sometimes we cannot see the forest from the trees when it comes to site development.

I notice that the highlighted tab on your upper nav bar still doesn't change, regardless of which page you're on, DCR.
