It isnt hosting porn, nope.

Whats very hard to read? the whole thing? or just the logo?

Sweenster

the font isnt very clear, could just be the image compression though.

I would avoid using such a vibrant colour as a main body background, you can use vibrant colours just not as a main body

something darker reduces the overall glare

yeah, I agree with sweenster

plus... it doesent look porfesional, looks cheap and tacky :(

edit:

go look at some other hosting companies sites ;) ;)

Simple is better. A logo, then black on white text is better. Theres a reason online newspapers are still black on white for readability. It doesnt have to be absolute black on absolute white, you just should avoid colors with too much intensity and saturation for the body of a page. Those that prefer light on dark--just highlight the passage you want to read, and itll invert for ya. ;)

Serious

And ditch the drop shadow on the text.

TBH the others are right, it looks like how you would expect a site advertising a particularly tacky brothel might look.

it would be wrong of me to cugest finding a nice looking webhosting page and ripping it off ;) ;)

mr_roll

Yes, it would be. I want my own design tbh.

Some people can design, others can code.

Personally I use www.oswd.org for all my design needs :) free templates for anything you want to do with them :)
