    Jocelyne,

    very nice site, looks clean. Just 1 recommendation, for SEO purposes, rename each page to indicate a more descriptive website, like:

    currently your home page has a page title of "home" rename it to something like "Freelance graphic design: Print and illustration services."

    You should also add ALT tags to your images.

    my 2 cents...

    I think he's trying to tell us he's a loans expert. In unsecured business loans.

    Plus, his name is David Castro.

    Did I get all that?

    If you're really going to get serious about freelancing, you might consider starting a design from scratch instead of using a pre-made template? It'll give you a lot more credibility. :)

    Your website copy is a bit bare-bones - it doesn't give the impression that you're passionate and professional about your work. It sounds a bit like you were thinking, "Well, I guess that's all there is to say. Come on, customers."

    And while I like an uncluttered website - thank you for not overdoing it - it doesn't seem to reflect your personal style much. If I'm looking for someone to design something for me, I want to be able to see something of your aesthetic as soon as I'm on your site. If I'm researching fifty or so other graphic designers, your site will not stand out without more information and a strong impression of your personal brand and style.

    You're in the business of helping other people develop their brand and image - develop yours first!
