    First of all, what's free?

    The site looks very amateurish. I am not sure if it's the images, fonts, design or a combination of all.
    It looks to me like it was made in a very short space of time.

    I had a quick look at your website plug and since you ask, it's not very inviting, there seems to be an awful lot of text / images but it's all very disjointed. It doesn't make you want to stay a while and browse (for fear of blindness due to the 8million different fonts being used) and to be fair a website is supposed to make you want to stay and browse a while. Anyway, The best of luck with the venture, I hope you redesign it soon.

    Sorry but this site is riddled with bad practices in almost every aspect: legal, SEO, typography, user interfacing, validation, opening new tabs, navigation, framing, linking, information. marketing, layout and a lot more.

    There's a hell of a lot lot more to web design than you think. The mistake I would rectify first is the removal of copyrighted images which could land you a hefty bill from the likes of Getty Images who like to charge up to $1000 per image used. For the rest you'll need to consider getting assistance.
