    i just finished upgrading my website, the reason i changed it was that i was not seen in google and had learnt that my site had some major errors, for example my title tags were too long, i had no keywords etc, i have corrected what i think was wrong, any ideas what to do next

    any help is good help, thanks

    You are using title attributes for your images when you should be using alt. And even the titles are weak (using a persons name, Dawn, instead of using 'photo to canvas').

    No heading H1 element. Instead you are using this for your heading:

    <span class="c10"><span class="c9">Beautiful </span><a href="http://www.fyneart.com/photo-to-painting-price.html" http:="" www.fyneart.com="" photo-to-painting-price.html="" photo-to-painting-price.html??=""><span class="c9">Photo to Paintings</span></a><span class="c9">&nbsp;<br>&amp; </span><a href="http://www.fyneart.com/photo-to-canvas-price.html" http:="" www.fyneart.com="" photo-to-canvas-price.html="" photo-to-canvas-price.html??=""><span class="c9">Photo to Canvas</span></a>&nbsp;<span class="c9">from your own&nbsp;photos</span></span>
    Code (markup):
    What the heck? This is the style of coding you have throughout the entire page. Enough spans and divs to choke a horse, and yet -- there is no difference visually.

    That heading also has hidden links.

    What software did you use to generate this page with? Whatever it is, I suggest you throw it away and start over.

    There is so much more wrong with this page, too numerous to list. For example, you anchor links with empty href attributes, javascript references to localhost IP address (127.0.0.1) and on and on.

    not what i wanted to here at all, bowing head in shame and anger. i thought i had problems before so i used coffeecup html editor 2008 to redo the entire site using the WYSIWYG to write the code for me. i then used html tidy to try and fix the problems, obviously it has not helped me at all. are the hidden links to coffeecup or where? thats definately not what i was aiming for, i think i might well give up and pay someone to re-write my website as this all seems hopeless
