My first impressions of Seear Host were neutral. You need to work on making a positive first impression upon your viewer. There is a very short window of opportunity that you have to impress a user enough to look around your website. Your impressions must quickly represent your hosting company upon first glance.
Though your theme and layout didn't impress me, the amount of info you carry on your homepage did. I really like how you've incorporated domains, hosting and support onto your homepage. I could find many different hosting plans and domains along with the support that you offered with them quickly.

Your logo could use some work. I can't tell exactly what the green, yellow and blue bars represent in a hosting company. I am in the same way unsure about the pink helicopter blade. I would just change the logo to say "Seear Host" with "Your Success is our Goal" below.
Your theme has too many colors. Logos only need two or three colors to really be a good logo. For a hosting company, you do not want many colors, to ensure maximum professionalism. For your company, I would recommend white and another, bolder color.
Your theme is very similar to many hosting companies that are already on the market. Custom themes really aren't expensive to purchase. I would recommend you buy one that looks different from other hosting companies.

Site Statistics

Hosting companies don't really have website statistics, so I'm going to cover your hosting statistics. I do not see any real statistics for Seear Host. You should reveal some basic statistics to your users. How many people are on your server? That is a question I would ask before selecting a hosting company. I would want to ensure that I'm not going to be placed on some weighted down server with tons of people already on it.

Originality

With so many hosting companies already available, it's hard to truly stand out. However, I do not really see anything original in Seear Host. It looks too much to me like a standard hosting company. I can get everything you offer at about the same price somewhere else. You need to do something to stand out. I would add a support forum to start. Most hosting support forums don't get used much, it's more about making sure your potential customers know they'll get the best possible service as possible.

Site Structure

You currently have a bunch of bugs. The social media buttons on your top right navigation bar don't work. They only direct me to the main social media site (Facebook.com) instead of taking me to your social page. The Skype button only takes me back to your home page. It shouldn't be hard to change the button direction to your social pages.
On the "Getting Started" button beside where it says "Fast. Reliable. Secure." whenever I click on it, it doesn’t take me anywhere. You should have some form of place that includes a price table and what different plans include when I click on the button.

Grammar & Spelling
[note]========== BEGIN - Grammar & Spelling ==========[/note]
You have many different typos and grammatical mistakes. Under where it says "99.9% Uptime" the description reads "Each day at
eleven2 we push to make everything we do the best we can. Quality is extremely important, and is what every employee works hard to achieve. Why would you host elsewhere?" You put the wrong company name in the text. Unless you're trying to run two different hosting companies at the same time on the same website, it should read "Each day at Seear Host we push to make everything we do the best we can. Quality is extremely important, and is what every employee works hard to achieve. Why would you host elsewhere?"
Then under "High on Support" your text reads "
we’re always here, eager to help you! 24×7 support and fast ticket response times with on-demand escalations. Our support is what we’re renowned for." the grammatically correct version of that is "We’re always here, eager to help you! 24×7 support and fast ticket response times with on-demand escalations. Our support is what we’re renowned for." the "we're" should be capitalized because it starts a sentence.
On the homepage, under the prices you have "form" written down instead of "from".
All of those mistakes could be fixed easily by doing something as simple as putting your descriptions and lists through Google Docs or Microsoft Word.

Final Remarks
Seear Host needs some work. You need a theme that will truly "stand out", a professionalism increase and some uniqueness to your company. Good luck!
