I am kinda busy and didnt get to look at much, but the first thing I noticed is you need a 301 redirect to the www. domain.

I know you're going to build this website out in the future. Very nice start-up website. My only suggestion is maybe to get rid of the "First Floor Apartment" in the Mailing Address.

Fixed! Thanks! I redirected FROM www to the url without www, as i use http:// fast-computer-solutions.com with my links...

Done! What content would be great to add, in your opinion? Thanks!

that big block of green background on the home page is pretty hard to look at

On the other pages its not so bad, because its a smaller proportion of the page

but yeah, apart from that its a good start

I like it. Nice simple design, you get what you do and some sales points over nice a quickly. The icons fit with the points rather than detracting from them. I assume it's a Wordpress template.

I'm not so sure about the girl photo - doesn't seem to mean anything to me other than a good looking girl with a laptop.

I'd like to see a testimonial and qualifications or something to give me some extra confidence that you know what you're doing - thinking from a customer perspective.

I bet you could get a cool logo done easily enough with a name like that but what difference that would make is debatable.

I can't comment on the SEO in depth but you seem to have thought it through and be aiming the various pages at specific key phrases.

Overall, it's a really good effort. Nice one.

Out of interest, where do you get the icon graphics from?

That's one of the things bugging me when I started this thread. On a laptop it's not an issue, but on a desktop lcd monitor the green becomes almost neon!

I put the picture of the girl in to show a "happy customer" sort of graphic. Perhaps a business-like image would be more suitable?

I have difficulty with the logo, am experimenting with different designs...

The icons I found by searching GPL in google and Iconfinder. There's a post somewhere in this forum giving good resources for web site developers.

You could try 48 Hours Logo. I've got a comp going there at the moment: http://www.48hourslogo.com/project.php?id=4772
