Super awesome!!
I've seriously been waiting for this change for a long time, glad to see you're knocking it out of the park like this.
I recommend making sure you have a ship spin counter on the ship spinner please. To keep the experience authentic.
Really, great job, can't wait to see it! That old website needs to be taken to the back of the shed and put out of its misery! It's way out of date.

Quick recommendations off the top of my head :
The copy writing on the Pirate description needs a bit of work. I understand this is all WIP and I don't expect an explanation - just saying it to say it.
Also, I think some emphasis should be put on the amount of time it gets to that position. That's just from a perceptual viewpoint when you get in game to go pirating immediately. I'd say that you need to emphasize inter-pirate warfare as "Fight for the best pirating territory from other pirates!"
A lot of time pirating is actually spent protecting your turf from other pirates. Also, not everyone who lives in low sec is a pirate, some are anti-pirates. So, I think that adds something to the whole profession that people are not seeing immediately. You gotta earn your grub around here.
For all the professions try and see the next layer down that really makes the profession feel "Real" when you write the copy down. The devil really is in the details that makes some of these professions awesome.
With a lot of the player made game content you can also be a Gambler (EOH Poker, Blink, other lotteries), a politician, a community developer, a forum troll (this one is important), a scammer, etc.
EDIT : I agree with the above person - emphasizing that you are doing Piracy to other players is something to make sure is clear. Many players think of an MMO and then think that they're going to be doing stuff to NPCs all day. This goes back to what I said about fighting for the pirating turf.

Couldn't help but notice the Right upper corner saying "play Eve for Free" is that a referring vaguely to plexing or are we gonna start a new F2P discussion in the future ?
It is just a free trial ad I believe... a slightly misleading one, but hey... marketing... Yeah I just want to confirm this is not referring to plexing, F2P or anything like that. It's the "try eve now" link that takes you to the Getting Started page I mentioned in the bullet points.
This is HIGHLY misleading.
TRY EVE for Free would be more correct. This is very much false advertising.

Lying to customers is bad marketing.
Even if they press the button.
