I would really appreciate some feedback on my new website!

I just created a website for an auto repair company called Benchmark Auto Services, and I would really appreciate any feedback or suggestions to make it better. The site is http://www.benchmarkautomn.com

Thanks! Nicole

Nicole;

I like the overall style and design, it is crisp and clean. On my laptop browser (Firefox v 31.0) there seems to be a lot of white space between the body of the site and the footer. So much so that my screen will only have the header on it and the rest of the page is white space.

The break points for responsive design is nice, but there seems to be a lot of information to scroll through on a small screen size (mobile device). Is it possible to break some of that information out into links on the smaller screens?

Otherwise I think you did a very nice job, I like the "garage door opening" effect too.

Great work Nicole!

What I would do:

  • Slider/image (about us) should have a bigger width (example 762 px). Then you will have straight lines with the text below.

  • Make Quick tips page easier to read.

Very nice website nicole the design really feels like it is for an auto repair company i like how when you scroll all the way to the bottom the footer slides up and the break points for responsive design are really good.

Very nice work!! Just a few comments:

-- I really like your favicon, and I think you should incorporate it into the site more. I feel like the logo isn't present enough throughout the site.

--In larger viewports, it can be hard to read the phone number in the top right corner because it's white font against a white background.

--Maybe round some of the edges of elements with border-radius?
