    Hi All,

    I'm part of a local community group in Donegal who were awarded a small grant to set up a tourism website for our area.

    This is the final result, would appreciate any feedback?

    Very nice but 1 suggestion

    When you click on About the writing seems to run off the page . It seems to be half letters

    No disrespect to the designers....its a lovely design, very nice website. But they haven't been fully following the w3c guidelines and accessibility. I would recommend that to be sorted.

    It's good, very good in fact.

    Make sure as the above poster has said you follow the w3c guidelines ;)

    Looks good, but too much content on the front page is below the fold. So if users don't scroll down they miss special offers, newsletter etc.
    Suggest you reduce space of top banner, welcome to ballyliffin and the news. Then people will see that there's more to see.
    Can't understand why they used flash for the welcome graphic.

    I just noticed too. That flash graphic is also under a <h1> tag. Those tags needs to be in text format. But the designer has the same heading in text in a <h2> tag. The search sengines won't be able to read the <h1> coz of the flash so it needs to be in text. and change the <h2> tag to somewhere else. Always, ALWAYS start with a <h1> tag on your main headers and in text format.

    On a browser without flash, the header appears. But can't see why it's flash. Should be gif.

    Using an image in the header is the opinion of some designers. But in terms of seo a text should be used for headers.

    If done correctly using an image has no negative SEO effects.

    Maybe a sample of the menus would be good.
