Arrow Dirigo Web Services

Hello All,
Dirigo Web Services has recently appeared as a provider of shared linux accounts. What we lack in size, we make up for in personalized service. Something that is not all that commonplace anymore.
Located in western Maine, we enjoy peaceful surroundings while outsourcing our server overhead and taking advantage of some of the finest fiber backbone routes on Earth.
We offer a modest range of shared hosting options, targeted toward the personal and small business markets. No adult-related content at all.
Toll-free telephone and live support make us very accessible- something that is necessary to build our brand.
To round out our range of offerings, we also provide web design targeted toward the small business owner.
Take a moment and visit us today at www.dirigoweb.com

Hiya sumtotal

Some constructive criticism

I looked at your site and I like the nice uncluttered layout. I did notice that your intro text about poor service, broken promises etc. and realised it was designed to make visitors think. To me the next sentence that said 'Welcome to Dirigo' made me think 'Do they offer this sort of service? Surely not!'

I would have some sort of lead in text that makes it obvious that Dirigo is exactly the opposite. Perhaps along the lines of 'having experienced all of these things before as customers ourselves we decided to be different'

Just my initial thoughts. What is obvious to us when we put things together doesn't always translate when people read them literally!

Cheers and good luck

David

Good point, I was thinking the same thing as I reviewed my site layout, but got distracted and tended to some other issues instead.
I'll make it a point to remedy that this morning!

Check the updates; embedded Live Alertra uptime monitoring window, written uptime guarantee... more on the way- I've just got to get some other things done now as well.
