You lose your audience best the moment they land on your website if your homepage is boring. This section is unnecessarily wide. It's taking up way too much space on the screen, and I don't think your address, especially if you're not a local business, needs to be so prominent. Tier same with your phone number, I would move both to the footer. This clears up the area and allows us to focus on something far more important, and that's your message. What do you do? How can you help me? Why should I choose you? And where can I book you? And this kind of a banner isn't answering any of that. It looks super unbalanced and DIY, especially on mobile. You can tell it's just an image, and this is the most important part of your website. And then the worst thing, my favorite, you can do is to continue by welcoming people to your page with a headline like this. It's really unnecessary. You need to realize that you're speaking to your people, and you don't have that much time to convince them why they should choose you. I assume that you don't have your own photos yes. That's why I think you yes those from the photo bank, but they feel inconsistent. So I decided rather to focus on shapes, colors, fonts, and three d graphics to grab the attention and tell a story. So I would highlight your most important services right away tier. Visually, I kept the main brand colors, the yellow and blue, but I balanced them with a pastel blue and pink to make them feel fresher, friendlier, more fun. But, of course, everything depends on branding, strategy, your target audience, and goals. But if the brief is to design a home page for a virtual company in a playful, vibrant, and simple way, this is what I would do.
