    Hi guys,

    I'm just wondering if the SEO is done right on www.StrathfieldBrookvale.com.au?

    Please advice on keywords i've chosen aswell as the meta tages and everything that would effect the SEO.

    Thanks

    You look like you have the right idea, but I think you're using too many keywords on each page. You should be thinking in terms of the following structure -


    >>Index Page (Optimised for In Car Entertainment)

    ---->>CategoryPage1 (Audio)
    ---->>CategoryPage2 (Navigation)
    ---->>CategoryPage3 (Mobile Phones)

    -------->>Product Page1 (Nokia9932773)
    -------->>Product Page2 (TomTom GPS)

    etc etc.

    So looking at yours the homepage should be optimised for more general terms rather than using the category terms as you ahve done. I'd also limit each page to 2-3 keywords.

    You also seem to have your category pages, but no product sub-pages. You'd get a lot more traffic if you added product pages and optimised these as such.

    I think the big SEO thing that needs to be done is to add text content. Right now your keywords either show up once or not at all (they are only in the pictures). Search engines read text. You need a whole lot more of it if you want to rank in search engines for any of the products you list / link to.

    case in point: you advertise a Nokia phone, but the word "Nokia" does not appear on your site (as near as I can tell). If someone searches on Nokia - they won't find you. If someone searches on Nokia 6120 - they definitely won't find you.

    not a bad start, you could add a few more keywords to the title :D

    Also although you have a fair amount of graphic content, which is all good for a web user, the search engines wont see it at all really except for the alt tags. Perhaps focus some on building up some rich unique content, maybe some reviews of some of the products / suppliers u offer.??

    you will find you will be found in engines by type your business name and possibly location , but if your aiming for general web searches then focus on those keywords they search for!

    Are you planning on selling online at anytime?

    Just a few tips



    Remember Content is king.

    No one actually mentioned that you lack the H1 H2 tags etc ?

    You are just short changing urself without those. Basic SEO, 1st thing i checked and after that i stopped.

    They're header tags that are good for letting the search engines know that the text they contain is important.

    You should use where you have a title that has your keywords in it, such as the blue title above the Pioneer image. Pioneer Avic HD3 is part of your keyword campaign, so you would want this as an H1 or H2. Read more here...

    The H tags help if used properly.
