Not a major issue, nor does it deal with your website but - your resume should be in LaTeX!

How to:

- Copy the source code from a .tex template[0] you like.

- Create an account at ShareLaTeX[1].

- Start a new blank project, name it 'firstnamelastnameresume' (always save your resume with your first name, last name, followed by the word resume).

- Delete the code in the main.tex file and paste the code from the .tex from the template you would like to use.

- Edit the file with your content.

- Recompile to preview resume.

- Then download the PDF.

I would personally remove the "objective" portion from the resumes. It's known to all parties involved what you are looking for is a job, you don't need to spell it out to them and it uses space that could be better used.
