    Are you based in Hawaii?
    And, for the main text, you need to change it to black.
    I can hardly ready it.
    Otherwise pretty nice for your first.

    Pezboy45 is right about the main text color. How about increasing it's font size.
    Maybe make the top header match your logo in font and color.
    Since when do they say Aloha in CA? Hey pezboy45 did you guys move the islands to the mainland.

    Change the font color in the header. It blends with site too much.
    “Trusted carrier-neutral telecommunications intermediary,
    ensuring the best possible solution for the best possible price”

    How about putting in some breaks in the index page main paragraph. Say a space after each long sentence. This will make it ramble less.

    In your code you have a title section
    <title>Home</title>
    Make it this <title>Aloha Communications - Main</title>

    I would put my Google ads below and about and inch down from the menu on the left. They take away from your site. The Netfirms can stay.

    CP is right change those arrows to the ones she posted.

    Oh Yea Thanks for the larger font.

    Frankly speaking the text is a little bit difficult to read because of the grey background.
    I also recommend you to change the color of such words as Data Solutions, Hosting Solutions, etc to blue one.
    At the same time I liked your logo a lot!

    looks good, but your bullet image isn't showing up now.
    But, instead of an image, use:
    &bull;

    That will lower the load time, because its not an image.
