Is it under construction?? the link you provided is not working....

I second the comment about the slow load. Once the site is up navigating is pretty fast except for the listing section. Like the clean layout and design.

Dave Mason · Answer

I would focus on getting more content on there that is searchable.  I'm assuming you want people to find you.  We went with a silo model for our site and it has been working great.

need to improve a bit, your design is good but your loading page is too slow, you will get a hard time crawling it by spiderweb.

Fast for me.  Kinda busy front page.  I would increase the font or go bold on the info on the top about who you are.  I was struggling a little to understand that what you do.

In fact, no offense, but do your customers really care about a big picture of your office building?  You have 3 seconds to grab a visitor before they hit the back button.  Why not make a big statement about what you do and why they should stay on the site?

I just retested - very slow to connect to the server, but once connected it loaded as you'd expect. However once the page had loaded (IMO) I could see that the browser was still busy downloading - all the preloads, I guess.

I did a DNS check and everything kind of looked OK, a couple of things for you to check though

N/A N/A · Answer

Contrary to the last poster I found your site to be fast and the logo to be sharp.

One comment would be that for SEO purposes you should have H1 tags on the page.

Sarah King · Answer

It's incredibly slow to load...

Your logo looks a bit blurred - I'd recreate it from a high quality image and save it as jpg quality 3.

Other than that it's an "ok" joomla site. You have to balance up slick versus accessible. I don't like agents who look like they've gone too far on the design and forgotten their core business... but yours could, perhaps, do with some polish.
