Website review

[Andy78]

Cheers guys, all good points and some I've half considered,

The internet here is shocking and I don't get a great phone signal so I have an auto divert from my mobile to landline when I'm at home but I guess I'll just change the answerphone message and hide the handsets.

There's desktop and mobile editor views which appear fine from here but I'll do the map externally and merge the images should fix that bit.

The overall colour is supposed to be the sunny yellow (I think they call it) you sometimes see VW vans in. I wonder if changing the colour settings will make it a little more consistent, I don't know how many options there are with the Wix editor.

MI'll keep my eyes out for a BG RCBO as well, just as not to bug anyone else, I'm not wholly convinced many would notice though

Fitting mismatched components would probably be against both manufacturer's instructions and advice. Do they fit exactly and have been made to be compatible ? The issues here are not likely to be cosmetic but more of a fire hazard nature.

Wow, I didn't need to manufacture anything obtuse to fit it in, actually it fits better than the extra few BG breakers I bought to make up the set, which all seem a little bit on the ****.

Wasn't intending to mention it but I had to replace one of the RCD pictured which came with the board because it was adding nearly an Ohm to the Zs. Maybe I'll invest in some better hardware next time.

Hi Pete.

Just a small point, in the 'Blog' section of your website, the 'New Business' post, 'stationary' = not moving, 'stationery' = pens and paper. :icon4:

Happy to be called a pedant, like Pete999 on here, but I think that small things like that can make a difference.

Best wishes for the future.

I suggest getting a "proper" domain name rather than using hotmail.com
Good Luck

Just noticed that you have got a domain but are using the hotmail.com email on your site, I must go to specsavers........

 

[Pete_Gillson]

I'm impressed, didn't expect anybody to look in that much depth. A successful day with a few changes, nothing major but as Jez says, it's the little things that make the difference.

I also managed to plumb in the fridge so the wife will be happy when she gets home, sparkling water on tap; I could get used to this self-employed malarkey!

Thanks to everyone who got in touch and anyone else who took the time to take a look

New domain email is in the pipeline, I wasn't sure it was worth the extra £40pa but I'm happy to be proved wrong

Ours is a wix template. We were never happy with the mobile conversion as it seemed to alter totally random sections depending which device your using. In the end we just disabled it which in our opinion works a lot better so long as people know how to zoom in and out on their mobiles. Maybe try it and see how yours comes out?

Thanks, it's annoying that there is a mobile device mode yet it probably only works on safari etc. I was surprised that people on android were having issues. I will disable it for now and see if there's a better option long term.

I would make the minor tweaks as suggested then leave it alone (other than adding more photos) and review it after 6-9 months.

Certainly worth the full domain for £40 as it says you're more settled/senior than using a Hotmail domain, per previous posts.

Colours are ALWAYS liked or not liked by different people. Ask 50 people about colours and you'll get 30 different answers...and which one would be right. Go with colours which aren't too bold and stick with that!

Minor point but the email address on the contact tab/page should really be a hyperlink and open the user's default mail app. Not a big deal as people can always type it anyway!

Pages all seem to load & display OK for me.

Put some time into SEO (Google has LOTS of help pages about this). VERY important.

More gallery shots shows your standards, expertise and scope and is well worth adding to.

Likely we'll all need web sites soon and this one's much better than many I've seen! Nice one.

Just noticed that on your contact me page bottom left it says "google2d800bdc3cb9b5db.html"

Like the colours personally
The photos are great
Think wording is positive

NB I'm dyslexic tho so not a great judge and very trusting (lose 100-200 a year to con from people)

 

[DuaneMHunt1976]

some thing eating at me.. the Main Picture of a person screwing, the MCB is on and the Main Switch also ... UP is ON yes!

that took me 5mi (mainly loading things up and trying to find a effect i could work with) but with a fresh one you could have the PG glow and maybe brighen up the yellow around it...
This is a big Gimmicky and more playing on Flashy images . it works for VAGAS!! why not Boston!
