Minor Problem Beef up call to action module
The "Request a Free Report" is not compelling enough. I suggest adding a line of text to explain what someone will receive. What is in this free report? What is the value? Also, maybe a touch of color to draw the eye therePositive Feature Very attractive..
Really clean, web 2.0 layout. Services listed out clearly. Activity shown through import of blog postsSummary:
All in all, a very nice looking page needing a stronger call to action

Andrew Kolidas commented:I see see no call to action under the "request a free report". Is there something I am missing?

Minor Problem on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 This looks good, but is out of place in the header. This could work well in the footer. 2 These colors hinder the flow of the page. If they were placed over the white background, it would look fine. 3 This tag doesn't match what your saying below it. To me it seems like you're describing what you do as a company, rather than who you are. 4 Based on what is said in the section above, this section seems like it will describe the services that accomplish "What we do" above. "Our Services" may be a more appropriate tag here. Positive Feature on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 Professional looking and organized. It's easy to scan and flows well. 2 Personal preference here, but when I go to company websites, I enjoy seeing blogs. To me it says the company is active in staying on top on industry trends and communicating with customers. Nice addition! Summary:
Hello Atul.
This is a great design. It aesthetically pleasing and organized. I could scan it quickly and understand the different sections.
I know you said the ignore the banner area, but I made some suggestions there anyway. I hope you will not mind. I made some suggestions and comments in other areas too. Nothing major however.
Nice work! I hope you'll upload more screen shots of your site was you have more to show.
Hope this helps!

John Gurtz commented:Hey Atul!
I like the changes to the labels (About Us/Our Services). Regarding the Optimize, Socialize, etc section... I think my ordinal critique of the colors may have been wrong. It looks better with the green and black. Optimize is spelled with a Z not and an S by the way.
I stand by my comments about the very top of the header, however. The phone numbers and social network icons throw that whole section off.

Atul Chaudhary commented:
Hi John,
I also had one more variation for optimize, socialize etc section but in very subtle manner...I will post it here shortly and notify you so that you can review.
I will also remove the top black bar in the website and see how it comes out to be... :)
Let me get back to you once I am done with these.

Minor Problem on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 This tag line is looking kinda confusing here. Try to left align them with the logo. 2 Add more spacing (around 6-8px) between this heading and your paragraphs. 3 This icons are heavy. Reduce their color (match with the heading text colors beside them. 4 reduce this underlines color. This should to go just fine with the color of your content and sidebar section divider(|). Serious Problem on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 You can use one of this two techniques to solve those overused contact numbers in the secondary nav. 1. Format them like this: "Contacts: 00-0000-000 (Int), 00-0000-000 (UK), 00-0000-00 (US)" and "Skype: userid". Thus you can easily minimize the s nav's height. 2. Or if possible try to use a popup menu. Critical Problem on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 Your secondary nav (the dark one) is taking preference over your actual nav. This is serious problem as it creates confusions identifying the actual nav. 1. So many contact numbers in one place. set the number headings (e.g. Skype us) fonts to normal instead of "bold" face. Lower the actual numbers color (it should be fine with the same colors as of their headings.). 2. Try to reduce this secondary nav bar height to more 10px. 3. Add more contrast to your menu items. Now they're merely noticeable. Positive Feature on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 This is a nice looking promo bar. I just love your idea. But, 1. Add more space (top and bottom) to this promo bar. Reduce their shadow amount. Because this extra high shadow doesn't matches your overall design strategy. 2. The promo headings (optimise, design) etc are looking kinda odd on this lower cap form. Try adding sentence cap or uppercase. 3. I would like to say the same as @Ian Gadson do something thing to differentiate your links. 2 Social buttons are overly highlight. reduce their size and also reduce your "BE OUR FRIEND" title's size. I think this should to be fine with 12px on uppercase. 1. Keep an equal spacing between your social icons' top and bottom side (inside the social icons bar). 2. For your footer widgets. Reduce the spacing between your widget's titles and the line beneath them. 3. And at minimum keep 20px spacing between your footer widget titles' and their contents. 4. Finally I think the footer beating over everything with the black color. Can you use a lighter shade of the color? Summary:
Though it has got some design, placement and coloring issues. But it is a prominent design for sure. I hope your good luck with the design. And also expecting that my little guide will definitely help you out.
Thanks

New Idea on http://semseogurus.com/New-Design.jpg 1 Maybe you can give the find out more links a color and possibly add a small arrow to show this requires an action. 2 I love the aesthetics but was wandering if you might be able to spruce this area up with a splash of color. I definitely think the area on the right that contains the quote request and blog should have a little more flair. Maybe that area could be contained in a shaded box, the form fields could have some color. You can also make the blog entries a little more interesting as well. Summary:

Serious Problem Not a huge fan of the brand - it reads a bit funny to me. I understand you may not have any liberties but maybe an iconic look would help instead of words. Critical Problem The first letter should be capitalized. Positive Feature Nice header Other Can't comment on this area because the information isn't complete yet. I like the type treatment and the icon placement. Summary:
Nice work, I think the design is really coming together, with a few adjustments this will be a very solid piece.
Good job.
