Hey guys, im no web designer but ive knocked together a website from a free template i found. Could the more professional web people let me know what improvements i could make.

Website is Debt Rescued - Debt Management help and advice

PS. Thanks to spufus for working on the application form

Neat enough but (you knew there would be one )

The apply now tab stays yellow, in a tabbed layout like you've got, I'd expect that to change depending which was active. If you're highlighting it, I wouldn't as there are only a few pages, anyone looking to apply won't need any extra help to find the page.

Script showing on Contact us page at the bottom:
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxx-x");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script>

Good effort I personally think another colour other than beige for the background on the panes to the right, possibly light blue. Also when you click on the tabs like contact us it might be good to make the contact us text in the pane that opens a bit bigger and bolder.

It this a company or charity or something else ? Are the people giving advice qualified financial advisors ?

Certainly a good start , so well done ! It all seems to work as it should and is nice and fast.

the "apply now" needs looking at -- in my browser i.e. 6 you have to scroll a way down

Also I suppose it part of the business model not to have a phone number easily accessible -- but if not please make it nice and easy to see -- along with the address

really winds me up when I have to hunt around a website for a phone number

Thanks Hank, hadnt noticed the html code at the bottom. Seems i didnt paste the full Google Analytics info correctly. Yeh, the Apply Now is just yellow so it stands out over the other pages as this is the most important page on the site.

Just noticed as well that there are links to Free Website Templates on each page which won't install confidence in potential customers.
If this is part of the licence for the templates, is there a small fee you can pay to remove them?

Its a company and yes, the finance company are fully qualified to give financial advice, unlike me lol

No, thats the template i used, although i cant see the links in my browser. Did you see them by viewing source code or actually see them on the browser page? I dont have to display any links for this template, so these need removing.

Visible on the page, clicking the little arrows does it, arrows are there for clicking so can't help myself.

Ahh, them, lol. Didnt realise they were hyperlinks

When you click on the apply now bit the form to fill in has some strange text wrapping on the 'What can we do for you?', 'Rescue your debt', and the last one 'Deal with your creditors on your behalf'

The last line 'Give you the best free advice on how to manage your debt' seems to be in the right place though

Other than that looks good

You mean its centred rather than justified left?

Would it be advisable to have a different page title for every page? Im thinking of getting better rankings on google, etc.

Ahh, seems that IE7 is showing the text wrong but in firefox it looks ok.

Boro

Hmm, made some changes and now it looks ok in IE7 and not in FF.

Any ideas

Sonic'

Oops, should have said I am running IE7

Sorry I have no idea how to fix it for FF

Also, one browser shows the text justified left, the other shows it centred. How do that work?
