I would love some input on my website.  All constructive criticism is appreciated.  I will leave it at that and see what you all have to say!

Your copy needs a bit of work.  You come across with too many "We"s and not enough about solving *my* problems.

On your about page, your certifications are in: "A+ Certifi" and "Network+ Certifi".  The image file is bigger than the frame.

Your "Services" and accompanying prices aren`t logical.  Why not just leave it at your hourly rate, and say what the average hours required are.

The comparisons makes me think you are just competing on price. If you can beat everyone in price ... sure, I guess go for it. But you should find something else so that you have a leg to stand on when the next price-cutter comes along. So what do you offer me ... expanded service? Expertise? Personal service?

"Our multitude of services" just sounds funny.

Drop the "under construction" banners ... if you`re ready to go live, go live. If not, pull it away from being live.

I would drop the search box from the very top of the page.

The graphics aren`t my thing, but I think they work. The text is also easy to read.

I think you need a better tagline. I also think sites like this should immediately let casual visitors that it`s a geographically constrained site.

Right now you have:

Setting aside that it`s a weak tagline, I`d like it at least to say something like:
"Complete" and "one-stop-shop" are redundant. And who cares if you`re "best known" in an objective way? :-) According to what standard? Nobody knows. So if you SAY you`re the best-known, most people will at least try to believe it, right?

This is redundant, too:
Maybe a better way might be more concise?:

Hi all,

It`s been a while since I`ve had the opportunity to post here. I`ve been heads-down coding up my product, Guardrail. Would anyone mind taking a look at my site and providing some feedback, good or bad? I`d really appreciate it!

The address is http://www.internet-guardrail.com.

Thanks for your time!

The first things I look at when I evaluate a site is the Title Tag, the Meta Description as well as the Keywords MetaTags. 

Sorry, I found a one word title "Guardrail" and no MetaTags.
How will anyone ever find your site unless they Google `guardrail"?
 
The Google description tag is your first paragraph since there is no MetaTag description in you source code:

"Guardrail is easy to install, easy to manage and easy to use. You don`t need to be a computer, network or security expert to use it."

My advice is to hit the books, or get a tutor if you want traffic and results.

WOW! How did I miss the tags? I`m usually really good about putting those in. I really have no reason as to why I overlooked that this time. :-/

Thanks for catching it.

Your readability on the site is not great .. black text on white background, not enough whitespace, etc. Try increasing your spacing and softening the text. The whole site is really harsh ... not inviting to me at all (as a mom of 2). I`d like the sales points to be a lot more simple as well.

Hate to ditto that nhgnikole!  Looks are not everything!

Take a peak at your title tag and where are your MetaTags?

Don`t get down on yourself.  I`ve made mistakes too!  A whole bunch of them!

I can always pick myself up and start all over again.
