Hi there,
It's hard to comment on design, because aesthetics are so subjective. What looks good to one can make another cringe. I don't know if you intend doing the redesigning yourself or whether you intend to get professional help.
If you are planning on doing it yourself, you could use some of the better design templates that are available. Some are quite tacky, but many are quite professional. Also, make sure you don't over indulge in technologies like Flash, Javascripts and AJAX. They are good on the eyes but a nightmare for search engines.
Having a site is not enough if it doesn't show up in search results when someone is looking for a site offers. It is advisable to make sure your site is search engine friendly and ranks well in search results. SEO need not always be expensive. Individuals like me can do a decent job of ensuring your site is findable.
Lastly, make sure the content speaks the language of the customer. If talks of what you are and have to offer without necessarily addressing what your target market is looking for, it won't get far.
All the best with your site redesign.

Hey,
Welcome to MyLot!
Well, the site is well laid out and the scripts run fine. But you could do with a better colour combination. Purple and cyan is hard on the eyes. Also, put a larger logo, the current one is hardly readable.
And if you can, change the font. This one is too cramped up and not easily readable.
Hope I Helped!
