    Hi All,

    I need to get a thorough SEO/User Friendliness analysis of my site. I need someone to look at it very critically and give me a detailed report of what is wrong with it, how it needs to be improved, etc.

    I DO NOT WANT AN AUTOMATED SEO ANALYSIS !!!!

    I need a real person to give me thoughts on the layouts, links, wording etc.

    Anyway if anybody offers such services please either post or PM me with a list of the services you offer and the price range I'm looking at.

    I know I'm opening myself up to PM spam, but to anybody just throwing arbitrary spam in my PM box. I'm a fast reader with an ever faster clicking finger hovering over the delete button ;)

    Thanks all

    PS: I'm not posting a web site link as I do not want to contrivene any rules here, but my username might provide a clue.

    Looked at it for 1 minute.

    Your <title> doesnt change/pertain to the page you are on. That is a HUGE one that you need to fix. This will help out a bunch.

    Ok I always thought that was a good thing. Is/are there reasons to change the title tag with each page, and if so, what kind of information should I be putting in there.

    The reason is that the <title> tag is very important for all the major search engines. You need to put relevant keywords in there. So.

    <title>Site Name - Keywords explaining web page</title>

    The keywords should be the very first thing in the title. You dont usually even need the sitename in the title. I would reccomend something more like this:
    <title>Keywords explaining web page - Site Name</title>

    Thats true, if your sitename isnt a good keyword.
