    An seo review for http://www.expat-medical-insurance.com would be greatly appreciated. The site is about 4 months old now.

    Many of the content sections were no good (copied etc.) and were no indexed via robots. Now there is only one section which has this and thats the testimonials.

    Currently the site isn't well indexed by google, however it does have around 200 totally unique pages.

    The links are fairly decent in quality, and I'm continuing to get more.

    In my opinion, you have done quite a good job optimizing the site :)

    You have successfully utilized the header tags but you can try to minimize some of the unwanted tags inside your H1:
    
    <h1><strong>Expat Medical Insurance </strong><strong></strong></span><strong>&nbsp; </strong>                                </p>
    </h1>
    
    Code (markup):

    If i were You i would place the style information into css file. In order to make a more SE friendly code You should put the javascript codes into external files, and close the meta decription and keyword tags.

    Good luck to You!

    In my experience domains with two dashes isn't a good idea. They look spammy.

    My suggestions:
    - Try to use a bit longer keywords. Instead of optizing for only medical insurance try: major medical health insurance
    "Medical insurance" has a more than 100 million competitors while "major medical health insurance" only 13 million and this keyword still contains yours. It get about 200,000 hits monthly according to keyworddiscovery.com.

    - another keyword suggestion is: health and medical insurance quote

    - PLus I would add your keyword hyperlinked a bit more times. E.g. Put it at the end of the page as well. Do not forget that Google now has an emphasis on links. Your keyword is not hyperlinked at all.
    Change your "contact us" link for "contact us for your medical insurance" etc.
    I would also add to your menu bar the word insurance to individual, family etc.

    - Try using H1 and H2 headings only once

    - put the keyword in bold using <b> tags instead of <strong> tag.

    - optimize alt tags with your keywords as well

    - optimize each page to a specific keyword: individual plan page: major medical individual health insurance - always add the keyword hyperlinked to the page

    Nice website i must say ...
    just want to ask nonoka, about what you said :
    "- put the keyword in bold using <b> tags instead of <strong> tag."
    why ? is it wrong if i use <strong> tag instead of <b> ? cause i use dreamweaver and when I bold any character/words, the automatically use <strong> tab

    As far as I know Google recognized the <b> tag as bold and ignores the <strong> tag. If you are using Dreamweaver switch to code view and rewrite the tag.

    checked your link popularity and it shows that you only have more than six hundreds of link back...improve your link popularity as it will help you...one way linking is better than reciprocal link...although it is also good to have link exchange with related, quality and trusted sites...
