Looking to get anyone to comment. Positive and negative on site: http://www.megapixels.co.ke Best. Watchman. -- ...and I shall shed my light over dark evil. For the dark things cannot stand the light.
Thats a superb piece of work dude! Congrats! A few "small" issues you might want to think abt 1. Your HTML is not minified 2. You have 3 CSS files, none of which is minified, it might be a good idea to combine all of them and minify them 3. I think the Google Analytics code has no problem being placed at the bottom, near the other Javascripts 4. The nivo slider javascript is not minified 5. Some of your pages lack 2 important meta tags; description and keywords. Sometimes Google uses these two in its search results 6. The submit button on the quick email part of the contacts page is slightly out of alignment, see screenshot attached 7. Of this I am not sure, but I hear that its better if you have the title of the page first then the name of the site, so that the title for the contacts page becomes "Contact Us - Megapixels Productions", but like i said, of this I am not sure :-) 8. You might want to load your jquery from Google CDN, that way, its loaded simultaneously with your other resources, which = a few micro/seconds faster 9. Finally, webpagetest.org, tools.pingdom.com and pagespeed.googlelabs.comall have interesting things to say about your site. Conclusion: Thats a very well done site.
