Re: Shelley...

You may want to check your spelling. On the title you spelled signing incorrectly. (SIGNGING) Looks good.

Re: New Website Feedback. Hi Gus

Acouple of things. In my opinion, and you knwo what they say about opinions. it looks very busy and I find the animations distracting. From a marketing standpoint you state that you are bilingual in at least two places: I could not find what the other language was. I am multiligual my self and if I was looking for a notary who spoke my language I would not know if you did or didn't. Good luck!

*Lose the looooong intro. I almost clicked off.
*Don't list your fees.
*Under languages, list English and Spanish, not just Spanish.

Rest of site looks terrific. Extremely professional. Very attractive.

If I were searching the net for a notary, I am looking for information - not a long intoduction saying the site is loading. I wouldn't have the patience to wait and would move on. However, since you are asking for input I waited and looked. It is very professional, but I find the moving things distracting. I would keep it simple - JMHO.

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing.

But from my quick peek, it looks like the site was done in Flash so it needs the load time. But don't be so caught up in making it cool. That kind of site may be fabulous for certain types of companies, but for a notary service, it should be business like and professional. Plus, you're going to get absolutely eaten alive with search engines. They don't read Flash sites. My professional advise, ditch the Flash and redo it in plain old HTML. But I really like the look (just minus the moving background, that gets annoying quickly).

I don't think anyone else mentioned this, but the graphic on the upper left looks (way too much) like a graphic on MortgageDocs.com [SignStat] website. Watch out for copyright infringement there. I noticed it because I knew I'd seen that graphic somewhere else before...if the graphic was specifically made for MortgageDocs.com & they paid for it, you might find yourself having to remove it. Not saying that's the case, but be careful what you put on your site & document where/when you got it.

Just my opinion...
