Cool Website critiques, please

Hi guys,

Please give me your feedback on my website. It's not live yet and I'm currently in the process of submitting my final draft to the designer.

I would love some feedback! Thanks.http://www.sagacitysystemsinc.com/Cl...site/index.htm

P.S. I haven't done the doula benefits page yet. If you could point me to some citations, I would appreciate. And one of the links childbirth.org is not working. My designer put childbirth.com instead. Anywho, looking forward to your suggestions.

Hi - I think it is very pretty. Very nice pictures in very calming colors. However, there was one page - Doula Benefits - I believe, that was in a different language. I am not sure if that was the intent or not, but I am not sure how many people will know that language. Very pretty and informative otherwise.

That "language" is gibberish in Latin - web designers use it as fill when designing sites. So it's a temporary thing - not the final version.
My one suggestion would be to add a picture and short bio for each board member. Your heading is "Meet the board members" - but all you have is a list of names. A picture & bio would make it seem more like "meeting" them.

It is a very pretty site! I don't know if I agree with Dot about the soothing colors though, the orange is a bit jolt-y to me but I do like the combination. I really lurve all the pictures.

You might want to let your web designer know that the site is not validating for HTML standards: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...te%2Findex.htm

Love it, you made it simple with great pics. The service your doing for these ladies is going to be a great blessing. Good luck. Colors are very nice too. My website is being designed right now and I used orange too. I think it is uplifting and cheerful.

What a great ssite! The only thing that sticks out to me as a bit off is this line on your home page:

..."that provides free birth doula, breastfeeding services, and post partum support...."

Personally, I think I would say, "...that provides free birth doula, breastfeeding, and post partum services (or "support")..."
It just seemed choppy to me the way that "breastfeeding" and "post partum" both had something to offer behind them (services and support), but birth doula just hangs there alone. Just my humble !!!!!!!!
