Gene makes a good point.
While the site is "pretty," you've got a ways to go to optimize the
Search Engine Optimization features. The meta tag for description says
"This is a test description." and there doesn't seem to be a keywords
meta, which can also carry some weight.
For reference, my site, which is hardly SEO-optimized, has:
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML5, CSS3, Responsive, Mobile, LAMP,
Linux, Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, Rails,
software development, consulting, New Hampshire, New England, LUG,
visual foxpro, sourcesafe, linux, foxpro" />
because "Will code for food" sounds a bit desperate.
The body text as well should say "FABMate is a software service to
provide estimating to the mid- and large-scale manufacturing and
fabrication industry focused on medium and large construction widgets"
or whatever it is it does.
At a minimum, I recommend you sign up with Google Analytics and
Webmaster Tools and follow some of their recommendations on promoting
your site.

I took a quick look. It is pretty, but it fails big time in what
I
consider a key area.
What do your products do? The "OUR PRODUCTS" tab should tell
that.
Instead, there is a bit of an answer hidden in "ABOUT US". If I had
not
decided to hit all the tabs, were I a potential customer, I might have
skipped to the next Website.
If I have never heard of your products -- and I had not -- how
would I
find out what they do?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
