Visual Aesthetics – 6
The blog makes use of a default Blogger template, which could be tweaked for more visual attractiveness. Bearing the theme of the blog in mind, it really could use some work in this department.

Visual Aesthetics – 8
The site has an eye-catching color scheme, and the fonts used work well enough. There is a feeling of being overwhelmed, though, so things can be toned down a bit. Additionally, there is so much unused space at the edges, leaving the main area for the content too cramped.

Visual Aesthetics – 7
Professional Swimming Pools has enough images to entice anyone to think about having their own swimming pools.

You will find all the relevant links with no problem, and the pages load quickly. Once again, though, the background sometimes makes it difficult to read the text, as in the About page for example.
