Looks good Brian.

Looks good man! Tons of good info, and great pictures. Easy to navigate, and quick loading as well.

One issue I noticed is that the 'Contact Us' category doesn't work unless you are on the home page. Also, the 'Contact Us' selection in the drop down menu of the 'About Us' page only works on the home page. Same thing for the 'Click here for a free estimate' button at the bottom of all pages... it only works on the home page.

Thanks for the info I really appreciate it. What we're you using ( phone/tablet/desktop) and if it was a phone what kind was it.

Brian, i was using a desktop (Windows) and tried it in both Firefox and Chrome.

After reading your comment, I checked the mobile site. The 'contact us' button at the top of each page works correctly. The 'click here for a free estimate' button, at the bottom of each page, only works from the home page. Android, LG Volt.

Did some more testing for you.

'About Us' links:

On the 'About Us' page where you have the individual services as clickable links:

Pressure Washing, Concrete Pool Decks, Brick/Paver Patios, Retaining Walls, and Granite Steps need to link to the Pressure Washing page, under services. They currently link to the Exterior Soft Washing or Non-Pressure Roof Cleaning pages.

Fence/Vinyl/Wood all currently link to the Exterior Soft Washing page. There is currently no Fence/Wood section under services... should there be one? If you add one, then you can link these services to that page.

Commercial/Residential Solar Panel Cleaning all link to the Roof Cleaning services page, but there is no mention of solar panel cleaning on it. Might want to throw in a paragraph about it, if you want.

Rust removal should link to the Rust Removal services page... it currently goes to the Exterior Cleaning page.

Both mobile/desktop.

Article titles:

The "Lawn sprinkler winterization..." and "Top reasons you'll be..." articles both have the wrong title when you click on them.

Both mobile/desktop.

Suggestion:

On the mobile site, i would suggest adding "Articles" to the top menu. As it is, the only way to access them is if you scroll to the very bottom of the page where the word "Articles" is listed with the sitemap and terms of use, and at first i didnt even notice the word there, because of how we usually just ignore all of the TOS and privacy policy stuff. I think they are great articles, and linking them at the top in the main menu would make them more noticeable.

Also, just a heads up, i dont see anywhere to sign up for the newsletter on the mobile site, if you wanted it to be there.

Once again thank you for all that info. I appreciate it. I wasn't aware of all these issues.

I would speed up, a little bit, the slide show. Mine was slow too and put it at 4 sec.

Looks good,

On the side, start dribbling posts on you Google + feed again, as it helps the local searches in your area and inbound links to specific pages on you side to highlight the service your post is about.

I have found many different things as I have gone through each page and each link of our website. I have taken almost every page and copied to word where I have edited. After my office manager goes through it is when I submit with a little bit of a new look on the home page.

I think I'll be hiring Jason when it gets the new look with edits!

I think Jason is in the wrong business. I think he needs to start up a busines finding what's wrong with people's websites.
