New CMS website

Our website (wwhsrobotics.tk) just got a renovation, and I used a cms this time. Is there anything that I should change?

I'd change the keywords for your site.

"Register now on mysite.com!", the mysite.com part should be changed.

Other than that, it looks pretty good, nice job

Re: New CMS website

You might consider buying a "real" domain. $10 a year gives your site a significant boost in respect.

Also, the banner at the bottom isn't really annoying, but I think the traffic you will get through it is very minimal.

Because a lot of stuff is denied for not registered users (or is it team members), what other features does the site have? Is the forum a XOOPS forum or an adapted one (IPB, phpBB2, etc)?

I agree on this point, or atleast use a better redirect service. www.shortURL.com is a really good service, and costs only, I think $10 at the most. It comes with a couple (atleast) good services. If you just want a redirection without a lot of information about your traffic, you can also get the free version (but it's sort of a pain, because they changed how they did everything).

If you are looking for a decent (low cost) server, I think iPowerWeb is really good (it is from what I've heard anyways). Brinkster is also good if you can/want to use ASP.
