Hey guys! Most of you know me as Bob Souer's daughter. I also do virtual assistant work for VO talent, and I was hoping to get your critique of my website, as far as understandability and how well it explains who I am and what I do. To my surprise, not everyone knows who my Dad is, and I do sometimes have trouble explaining what it is that I do to people.

Any comments, criticism, praise, or whatever would be helpful. Your point of view is the one I'm looking for, as y'all are the folks that I want to hire me.

Thanks! Laugh

The salient points are there, simply buried in the darkness. Bright ideas need brightness.

One page (one size) fits all.

Reading left to right.

Dark box - Large title YOU. Write about the problems VO people have in their business.

Centre box, lighter colour ME. Write about what YOU bring to the party and as much as I love your father, being the daughter of Bob is pretty meaningless. My father was a Major in the SAS (Google it) but I still suck at killing people with my bare hands.

Right box - Really light, bright colour title US, Write what you and the VO will achieve TOGETHER.

Beneath the three boxes .....Contact details.

Voila

+1 on the above - the first thing I noticed about the site was the gray, the second was the tiny copy (too many words, and it wasn't clear where to look). The third was that the graphic and titles appeared to be low-res.

I think the writing has a nice friendly tone, though you sound a little unsure of yourself - fewer words would help that. I liked the organization and categories.

Will you be only a Virtual VO Assistant? If so, that should be in your title.
