      Why is "16 years' experience" written as a possessive? No apostrophe needed there.

      Comma after "350+ staff", that's a compound sentence.

                    It works either way in this case. This is a weird one. It can be "16 years (plural) of experience" or "the experience belonging to 16 years". Both are legitimate ways to interpret the stated phrase, one would be written with the apostrophe and one without. I agree that without is better, but technically with is just fine. Without it, there is an implied "of", with it, it is correct as is.

                      "Within the Essex County." A very pretentious county indeed. I'm guessing the word "area" used to follow there and was removed and the sentence was not updated.

                        "Excess of 350+".

                        That's redundant. "Excess of 350" or "350+".

                          I skipped over that one on purpose.

                            @scottalanmiller Thanks Scott, should I take the "+" out of 350?

                              Do you think this should be "located in the Essex County" rather then "Within"?

                                It's the "the" that is the issue.

                                Is it "Within Essex County" or is it "Withing the Essex County area"? The "the" only makes sense if the "area" or "region" is tacked on at the end.

                                    @scottalanmiller County is like the u.s equivalent to state I believe. So it would be like, "Located Within the Texas State" - that's what I'm trying to mean.

                                      Nobody here would ever say "located within the texas state". Drop that "the". It would be "located within the state of texas".

                                        Much Appreciated everyone, always good to get opinions and comments.
                                        I'm quite happy with the design though, looks modern and fresh.

                                          I don't know how ads work where you are, but I would keep it way simpler. It looks like a ... how to say, it's like a chef brought you everything he found in his kitchen which might be somehow eatable, no matter what.

                                          As for me, I wouldn't call a (small) company which offers phenomenal webdesign and (qualified) network security audits at the same time. I'm sure you're doing a really good job, but what is the core of your business? What are the top - let's say five - things people know your company for? Probably not webdesign 😉
