I'll give you a quick feedback about my first impression. When I clicked on the link, I was presented with a modal lightbox dialog: "Please enter your location", with the options "OK" and "Never!".
Not knowing what the service was about (maybe I could have read the washed away background, but we're trained to focus on the dialog), I would not enter any information, especially something private such as location or ZIP code.
I would click on the "Never!" button but does that mean that I would never again be able to enter that information? I could change my mind later. Since there was also an "X" button, I clicked on it to close the window.
Next thing I read: "Please. Don't Get Up." Err.. ok, I'll stay put.
Only THEN there is something telling me what the service is about.
Overall, it was not a pleasant or intuitive experience.
Edit: You'll probably also want to avoid having your code and variables show on error messages such as "Notice: Undefined variable: openTime in /home/couchadmin/public_html/couchster.com/www/business.php on line 826"; something bad may happen such as one of your connection strings or passwords being shown as part of an error message.
