I would like some third party opinions. What do you think of my website?

I think you're headed in the right direction. Here are a few comments.

1. Your logo should link to your home page. Currently when I click on your logo it's opening in a new page and all I see is your logo.
2. I would make your top navigation more bold. Either place the navigation within the gray bar that spans the site or remove the gray bar and place a bold underline under your navigation. You want your navigation to really stand out.
3. On a few of the pages, the 2 different types of font seems a little out of place. It looks like you're using Trebuchet and Verdana. I would consider going to a single font. For instance on your FAQ pag. Just make the questions bold, blue and a larger font, perhaps 14 or 16 pixels. Then make your answers 12 pixels and not bold. That should give you the division you're looking for between the Q and A. You could also try a thin gray line between each set of Q & A if you're looking for even more division.
4. I only peeked briefly under the hood and I have to nag at one small thing. You're using font tags which is not recommended. Instead, learn the basics of CSS and start converting your inline font tags into styles. Here is 1 quick example.

On your FAQ page you have this wrapped around the question:
<h4 style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"><font size="2">Sample Question</font></font>

That should be made into a class like this:
.faq-question{
font-family:verdana;
font-size:16px;
}

And then you want to remove the font tags from your FAQ and wrap it with your new class like so:
<div class="faq-question">Sample Question</div>

The reason behind this is so you can change the look of all FAQ's with editing a few lines in your stylesheet.

Other than that and a few SEO issues as mentioned above I really think you're headed in the right direction. Just keep pounding away, get on google and start googling about CSS tutorials and stuff.

The site does seem user friendly. I'm thinking a B- for being attractive. Have you thought about having a video on the homepage introduction your business. A video that would autoplay? That way you immediately grab a visitors attention and have your change to sell your business offerings?

The information looks good for your target market. The site could be designed to look hipper: as seen on sites such as cssdrive.com

But again, for your market the information layout is likely perfect.

Your site looks interesting. My comment to you which should be seen as paramount is that your site isn't optimized for SEO in any way: You need META TITLE, META Keywords, Meta Description tags in your source files.
