Feedback on my new website

I've just launched my new website www.garymelican.com

All my coding and design skills were learned here on Treehouse and I'd love to hear what you other Treehouse folks have to say about it.

Cheers,

Gary

Looks good. The lazy load takes a little for me but it may be my connection. Maybe consider using inline SVG if you want less http requests and consider securing your folders /img/ /js/ /css/ etc if you plan on adding anything in there you don't want people to access.

The lazy load is something that I'm trying to address - not your connection!

The problem is that visitors love that video (which is optimised for web) and spend an average of 1m 8s looking at it... but it's affecting load times - averaging 4s.

Thank you for the feedback though - really insightful!
