Let me know what the experience is like for you using this site and anything I can improve on.
Thanks hackers!
Hi Blake, here are my feedback:
I have a similar post that I ask suggestions/feedback for my news app for iOS. Would appreciate your input: https://www.indiehackers.com/forum/would-love-suggestions-for-version-2-of-my-app-cryptocurrency-news-app-94af8add0a
Okay, I finally got home and was able to give your site a thorough once-over. Here are my thoughts and opinions:
I have a background in art and design. I've been doing it now for nearly 20 years (oh, dear God I'm old). There are sections of text that are highlighted by a background color. On those sections of text, at the beginning of the background color, there's no margin to the left of the text, but there's a significant margin at the end of the sentence. This BUGS me, but isn't necessarily a problem with the site.
The site use 2 different fonts. Not a problem, per se, but there are times where they look weird together. On the contact page, there's a section of serif text between 2 sections of san serif text. It just looks weird to me.
I think it's neat that the sections fade in. I like the animation. But it makes it very difficult to go back to previous portions of the site. Someone else commented that they thought this would work better as a "single page" site, and I'm inclined to agree. The sections could fade in as you scroll. That's easy enough to accomplish.
There's previous work up here, but the logos don't link to the sites. Is there a reason you for that?
And finally, under User Experience, the wording makes it sound like you're going to "fix" their site for $20. I know it's a small, knit-picky thing, but someone will try to take advantage of that wording. And it'll be a headache to be sure.
All of this is just opinion. Please take it with a grain of salt.
clicking on the down arrow takes me to http://domain.tld/path for some reason. Also, i think you want some social proof in the beginning so you can justify your pricing later (case studies/testimonials maybe).
Ok, thank you for letting me know that. I wouldn't have noticed without you!
Wanna say great start! A lot of potentials to turn this into something really stunning.
Here's my $.02 -
Turn it into a single page application. The less click-throughs that someone has to go through, the better in most cases.
I think you almost have the 'floating' divs down, but not just yet. I think you should use a proper CSS framework - not only can you use it for your site, but for clients as well. It's minimal but has a lot to offer and also comes with a react-component. Here's the link - https://www.renaissancecss.com/
Maybe have some use cases that contain screenshots, some copy about the creative and technical process you went too.
I say start with that - no need to make things to complicated. Simple is great and you have that. Keep at it!
I appreciate the input and encouragement! I will definitely get back to analyzing the design and see if small tweaks can be made.

Great feedback. I will have to fix that ASAP.
Usually you can use the dev tools in chrome to view what things look like on different screen sizes including mobile.

Some examples of your work on your page would be nice. Testimonials also helps.
Any tips on how to include those things but still maintain a very small site? I really like the idea of only giving people a couple of options on the site, but what you are recommending is also a really good idea.
Not sure what platform you're building on but there's a lot of WordPress and Bootstrap templates that has those features built in. All you would need to do is fill in the information.
