Nice site though, good luck.
Sorry to say Josh but your comment doesnt make much sense. Our business plan accomodated for Pounds Sterling pricing, but after some contemplation between me and Nick we decided switching to USD would suit our target market with a little more compatibility

Just clarifying our decision

Just list the price in both, paypal will convert anything.. so it does not matter if you take a payment in usd or pounds, or have a script that reads ip and then outputs a usd or pounds price..

That's a good idea, the single issue is that WHMCS doesnt support payments in multiple currencies as far as I know.

Nope, WHMCS doesn't support multiple currencies for invoicing/etc. In the admin area, when you're configuring the main options, you can only chose one main one. :\

Although, if you know that a large portion of clients will be paying in pounds, I don't see any harm in listing both prices on the main site, and in the cart.php (products and packages--where you wrote your package details.)

Personally, I have a lot of international clients that range from Philippines, to China and Australia. I've yet to actually have more than a single question asking what the conversion from USD to their currency was. Either they looked it up on their own, knew offhand, or it didn't matter.

If you think more of your business will be US clients, then USD would be best to go with. But if you think more business will be UK/pound, use that.

Was just going to note that. Also, on the support page.. the tab does not remain highlighted like the rest of the pages. One last majorly minor thing: http://www.grabup.com/uploads/037680...645365ad74.png / http://www.grabup.com/uploads/8bc35c...50184a5421.png, some sort of overhang with the guy's sticky note? Not sure.

Best of luck, I've so far had great experience with Sensehost.com
Pricing looks good too; respective to the industry

One last comment on the design, I found after looking through the whole site I wanted to stab that pink subheader in the gut because my eyes hurt due to the contrast white background.

Regards,
Jeff

The splash looks a hell of a lot more professional and nicer than the main site in my opinion.

I'm not a fan of the main site, but I wish you the best of luck

As others have suggested, list prices in both $ and £ on the main site .. then just charge in $ on the actual order bit.

This is probably on your website somewhere, but im too lazy to look o.O

Where will your server / where is your hosting currently stationed / located?


I also dont know if this goes for everoyne else, but its a turn off when I see an unfinished website launched.
