    Your website is taking too much time in opening. Most of the internal pages have same meta tags and are not well optimized. Overall SEO score of your website is very low need to do SEO work.

    Thanks

    Site is now back up, contacted the host they said it was a problem with their firewall

    Going to make some images smaller to help the speed issues, and run it with gzip on

    The site doesn't look bad, but you could use a better template. Also, more content would help you on SEO.

    I see other people also noticed that it takes a long time to load. Also that there is not much text for SEO purposes.
    I think these are 2 really improtant things you can work on!

    My user friendly rating for your website is a 5/5, it was easy to understand everything. The menu has the nice red touch to it. The back to top button is great. All good :)

    Comment on the lay-out/design: replace images with actual text. It is a bit too dark maybe make it a bit lighter!

    Good luck

    Great photo but instead you need to use that space to tell prospective customers why they should use you and nobody else.

    You do home repairs, what area do you cover? Do you fix all makes of bikes or just Honda? I'll stop there because this information is on the servicing page, you need it on the front page!!

    Where that picture is start with something like this...

    Live in Dorset and need your motorcycle repaired or serviced?

    My name's Steve and I can take the stress and strain dropping off and picking up your pride and joy as I'm a mobile motorcycle mechanic working in your area.

    I service or repair all types of japanese motorcycles such as roadsters, racers, trails, enduro, scooters, commuters and so on. With the knowledge I have working for a major motorcycle manufacturer you are guaranteed the highest level of workmanship.

    I only use the best so all parts used in servicing and repairs will be genuine parts and castrol oils unless supplied by you. (you can also add any info about guarantees for the parts)

    I can provide you with a convenient and flexible service right to your doorstep on weekdays, evenings or weekends.

    Give me a call now to see how I can help you.

    This is just an example, but get all those benefits on the front page.

    You could also get some example prices rather than just saying 'highly competitive rates'. Bikers want a very good job done, price is secondary so concentrate on the pratical benefits first. But you could use the bullets down the left hand side like this: services from £X, Carb and throttle body synchronization from £X etc.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks chasdad some really usefull info. Would it be a good thing to add a few recent jobs as I've recently done some work for the Haynes publishing research workshop and I have a few pics they are on my redlinesuperbikes Fb profile if you fancy a look. Just incase you don't know Haynes make motorcycle manuals based on a strip down and rebuild

    Fonts seems broken, try using some smoother fonts at the bottom section.

    Thank you

    Design-wise it is a bit plain since it's the same thing on every page. The user friendly-ness of it is great. Easy to navigate, and easy to find what you want - but then again there aren't many pages.

    Some of the pictures and text is a bit stretched and doesn't look great, but then again that falls into the design.

    Great, those pictures show how much of an expert you are!!

    How did you get the Haynes Manual job? People love stories and everyone knows about Haynes Manuals so if the story is interesting dedicate a whole page telling it!! This is your biggest asset and will automatically position you as the number choice for servicing and repairs, I guarantee it.

    Another thing, are there any other mobile bike mechanics in your area?
