It took me a while to figure out what I was looking at. I saw "One stop shop for serious webmaster" and thought it was a webmaster resource site. The 'Host Mansion', 'Content Mansion', etc. links enhanced that perception.

Read the first quote: "Buy our famous MAS - Member Area System at the same time as you buy MPA2 and get a $500 discount off MAS!" and said I don't know what the hell an MPA2 is, or what a Member Area System is gonna do for me, but if I'm getting $500 off it's probably expensive as hell.

Looked at the four boxes/icons identified solely by initals MPA2, MAS, CSS, STS and said huh?

Read the next quote: "MPA2 is the ideal solution for companies looking to maximize sale attempt conversions.
The integration of MPA2 into our existing webmaster programs has yielded impressive results." and said what the hell does that mean?

After 30 to 45 seconds of looking at the site I still was basically clueless what the site could do for me. (In defense of those now convinced I'm an idiot, I did start to clue in after that point).

From a technical/aesthetic view it's very appealing but I think I'd tweak parts to make the services/product a bit more obvious. "You got this problem... we've got this solution" type of approach.

Overall it's very nice - just think it could be great with some minor changes.
