I searched "freelance web designer" into ****** to take a look at a few websites. Keep in mind, I live in Las Vegas, Nevada so my search results may be different than yours.

I clicked the first link titled "Lori Frame" and expected to see an innovative, effectively designed website as the head of the SEO race in the area. Apparently I was shockingly wrong in thinking so.

Here is an image of my search results:



Now please take a look for yourself at www.loriframe.com. After you have browsed the site for yourself, please answer my question below.

How does a site with a sloppy layout, tacky typography, depressing color scheme, and a source code that looks like it was written in 1995 end up as my first choice for web design on ******? What does this say about SEO standards?

(I cringed a little when checking out the "websites" page.)

Strange ..

I searched it too, and my first result was a very boring website. (Wasn't even "stylish". Just plain)

This is the website for me: (United Kingdom, North Wales): http://www.openweblab.com/

For me, https://www.odesk.com came up,but that link you gave,oh boy,it's horrible.

Gotta love Canadian web designers.

http://www.robfenech.co.uk/ <- Search for North East of England. Not bad.

Everyone gets different search results.

Also, as long as someone uses SEO (and also uses proper tags for searching), they can get views very easily.

I only got one thing to say about that website... EWEWEWEWEWWWWWWWWWWW

That sourcecode >_>

I first saw the metacode and though ok cool.
Then I saw the rest.

Seriously styling in the HTML document as a webdesigner?
No remote CSS?

Wow, the design on that first page looks like shit, looks like a webpage that was created in 1997.

It's not that bad I guess, but I like the orange bubbles.
And, the one you got wasn't that bad, it's pretty 1995 but it looks kinda cool.
