Host Bright

[hostbright]

Hello everyone,

Host Bright is a brand new hosting company we hope to open soon. Before we do I would like to know what everyone thinks about our website.

PS,
Please speak your mind you wont hurt my feelings. :doh!:

No offence but I just don't like it. The design isn't unique, and it looks more like an enom domain reseller page if anything.
On a good note: glad to see your design stuck with the name. I was expecting you to go with a darker skin with the name "hostbright" just being comical.

I would go with something more unique, not something you see on every other webhost you go to.

It's a nice design, I like everything about it.

The only thing I would change is add a rollover effect to your buttons (i.e. read more, order now, etc).

I do have to mention that 750GB of bandwidth for $2.95/mo? It appears you are either a reseller for Hostgator, or either have a dedicated server. That price for that bandwidth raises red flags for me. Some serious overselling.

[Schmarvin]

Yes, I do find the 750GB funny. As, you pay more for less actually.
Check the VPS and Reseller :P

We like the idea of the rollover effect on the buttons we will look into adding this soon. We will be changing the plans before we open but thank you for all your great comments. :God:

PS,
Please pm me your paypal address so I can give you a few bucks for the comments.

Can you give little more than "The design isn't unique" please? :lol:

While it's a fair layout, if a bit old fashioned. It's not at all unique. It would be hard to differentiate your company from hundreds of others. ;)

Hi there,

The design is okay, hosting orientated, but nothing jumps out of me. I'd have a go at incorporating your actual logo in some places, for example the "Grand Opening" bit could have your logo in the background. There's nowhere for my eyes to rest on, they get dragged all over the place. Perhaps reduce the amount of content on the homepage and add it into subpages. :)

Otherwise, pretty neat.

Thank you, I will be sure to add reduce content on homepage to my list of things to do. :typing:

Okay here it goes:

Although I like the color scheme of the logo, the logo itself is rather dull and exudes a lack of effort. Maybe I'm looking too much from the eyes of a web designer, but it looks like two circles with a Muslim crescent within. Maybe simple was your intention, but it doesn't feel like a hallmark for your company - just a couple of circles put together. You need something stronger in my opinion for the logo.

I like the top centered navigation with drop-down menu - the color is pleasing. However the background for the drop-down menu is too similar to your left aligned banner with the text "Welcome to our grand opening" - it makes it hard to focus on the links in the drop-down menu. Maybe change the tint on that big image to something green like the arrow icons in the drop-down menu - that way there is a contrasting color to make it less confusing.

The text in the images that make up the top of the Company News, Members Login and Testimonial sections lacks a lot of image quality and makes it seem unprofessional. Also, I would make the text in the headers for sections Company news, Testimonials and Members Login the same - they seem slighty different.

Make sure to save your JPEGs with 100% quality or 12 in Photoshop.

Get rid of the pink text in the centered content div - it doesn't belong.

I suggest a gradient background.

Hope that helps.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PHOTOSHOP TIP :God::God::God: We already have a new banner and I am working on getting a logo made. Can you please tell me where you see pink?
