I see you did some of the recommendations you were given on Gaydemon, but you're still building this on the kennel domain. Seriously, go buy the raunchpup studios domain to put this on.

NEVER put on your site that it's under construction! You don't promote it til it's ready, so it's likely no one will accidently stop by ... BUT THE SEARCH ENGINEs WILL! And any text on the page can end up in the SE description for your site.

Invalid characters at the beginning of your html and also I figure a mistyped url on your kennel home link (the right hand side one) ...

On your samples page you really need to order that table better, at least get the sample clips all in a vertical line or 2 side by side vertically.

You could use an actual logo also at some point, even if it is just some graphical version of your studio name like in your sig.

My immediate impression is that your site does nothing to help reflect the skills you have in your field...

I would suggest that you grab a free template for the time being and work from there mate... here for example http://www.minimalistic-design.net/ he has a few that would fit your needs with or without a bit of changing of the colors in the CSS

Hell shoot me a mail if you decide to do that and get stuck, I don't mind sparing a bit time to help you out :specs:

I am now
1. temporarily forwarding my new domains using .htaccess to a paysite and
2. adding a robots.txt file suppressing all search engines
until the domains are ready to be publicly launched. This solves the problem of unwanted visitors and search engine entries.

Good thinking there Batman :groovy:

Seriously though, That is a good practice that is often overlooked, by myself included.. those damn spiders get everywhere you don't want them to be and nowhere near where they fucking well should be LOL
