Post Another Site Review

I launched my site way to early but I have been building it off and on because Im a busy father of 3 (a girl, a boy and 1 on the way) with a civil tech job in ATX. I am trying to get it together fast so, once again, it's not yet complete but please tell me what you all think.

Note, some links may be broken but I'm workin on that!

Personally, I like it, but feel free to criticize-
constructively please.

Hi.

You have a major problem with the header overlapping the top links when viewed in FireFox. Fix that first then we can see the rest of the site.

Also, the image swap is messed up. When you rollover Google, it changes to PayPal. Some of the other are changing also.

I took a quick look around and here's a couple of immediate issues...your Google Adsense ads are just showing their code and not the actual ads...your People in the USA title is hiding the graphic behind it making it difficult to read both...at least in Firefox 3...your title tags are just "home" ,"people", you may want to add some more descriptive text for the search bots to eat...In your "people" section the sentence "Entire cities may no nothing of your business." The use of the word "no" is incorrect and should be "know"...whenever I see these types of grammatical errors on a site that is supposed to be an authority site I immediately exit...maybe a tad harsh but I figure if you (in general) can't take the time to check such things, then why should I take the time to take the site seriously. This is not a slight against you, but just my own opinion on the subject. And one other thing before I go...I have no clue what the site is about! There's nothing on the front (index) page that informs me of the site's intent...you definitely need some form of mission statement or welcome paragraph...especially for the search engines. Hope this helps and take care.

Lightbulb Thanks

Thanks you just reminded me of another question to post in a thread.
Does anyone use Microsoft Office Live Small Business for their website?
Im using it until I can afford something better. The problem is I don't know how to fix issues like making everything look the same when viewed in other browser's. I'll be searching for answers immediately. Starting my search here at WB.
Thanks again

that first reply was for alpha
This one is for Jazz.

Sincere thanks Jazz, I take no offense for the constructive criticism I will be addressing these issues immediately. I am researching Microsoft Office Live Tips to fix some of these issues because there site builder is different from many others.
Thank you

I was going to suggest making a new thread about the office thing to avoid confusion in this one, but you've already done it. I can't answer it but no doubt someone will know.

The homepage is perfect, but when you go to another page, the Recommend banners at the top right overlap part of the page and it doesnt look very good. And the google adsense and search overlaps the top of the page under the navbar.

Other than that nice look to the site, I love the colors.. It attracts me

Good job.
