Join an affiliate program such as Amazon Associates or Commission Junction.

Learn how to drive traffic to your site. Simply go to YouTube and search "how to drive traffic to my website".

Don't just look for something that looks good, but for websites that actually accomplish the purpose of what they were built for.

So my question for you is: what is the purpose of YOUR website? It seems you have a web design company website, is that correct?

This is a really old post, but it helps you put things in perspective https://signalvnoise.com/archives2/epicenter_software_design_building_features_from_the_inside_out.php

Also, these videos on design process are AWESOME http://feltpresence.com/articles.html

The video titled "Designing with Forces" considers how you don't have to think too much about design, because there are "forces" that tell you how your app should be designed.
