    Thanks, but the primary keyword that you ran the report for was custom wood urn.. I'm actually gearing more towards "wood urn" than the custom one.. many more searches for "wood urn" than the other.

    I agree with rafderamas. You need to remove the flash from your site. In addition, you need 350-500 words of (keyword-rich) textual content for your site. You also need to optimize your page title and meta description.

    Yes, remove flash and use content with keywords.

    I'm no professional programmer, but couldn't you achieve a similar look & design that you have in your flash content through jquery or AJAX combined with hard linking?

    I think you might add "engraved urn" to your keywords. As for the flash, it's not bad, but you want to put a paragraph or two above it to tell visitors what they are going to see.

    Non-SEO comment. On your testimonials page, I would suggest you make the text conform to the size of the visitor's browser. A small thing, true, but more friendly.

    There is a lot of room for improvement on your site. First thing I would probably do is spend some time developing your page titles and descriptions. You should have unique titles and descriptions for every page. And by the way, the more pages, the better. Every one is a doorway into your site. Next, expand your content and try to 'merry' it to the titles of your pages. Then, the real time consuming and tedious part of SEO begins: link building. Lots and lots of links. Relevant, one way links from high PR websites are the best, but those are not always easy to obtain. Where you lack in quality, you will have to make up in quality. At the end of the day, no link is a bad link, unless it is coming from a bad place on the Internet.

    Hope this helps.

    thanks for the tips.. I just revised the meta descriptions to actually describe the page.. They were all exactly the same before I changed them.. Hopefully this will help a bit.

    I looked over your site again. That isn't the best way of doing it. You should use your keywords in titles which relate to the content of the page as much as possible...first 15 c.haracters are the most important for Google, although it will read as far as 90.

    can you give me an example of what you would do so I can get a better idea of how to change the rest? I dont think that I am quite following you.

    I would do something along the lines of:

    <title>custom wood burial urns, laser engraved urn, funeral urn, picture engraved memorial urn</title>

    <meta name="Description" content="Custom wood laser engraved urns. Choose from a variety of shapes, wood types, lid styles, and laser engraved photos or text. Bryan Wood Urns will help you create a completely unique urn to commemorate a loved one." />

    It is important to realize that search engines read titles diferently from me and you. The spider will read a title front to back, back to front, it will skip words, etc. So possible combinations of key words arising from that title are:
    'laser engraved burial urns'
    'picture engraved urn'
    'custom funeral urn' etc.

    Hope this helps.

    Add 'cremation' in there somewhere as well. Remember your titles don't really have to make sense to a human eye...
