    Can you guys take a look at my sites or site, which I bought for adsense advertising.Let me know if they will ever rank high in the ranking. I know I must wait a while, get links and get some new content over time, but I would like to know if there is any major problems with the code. or any other problems you might see

    Thanks Monika

    I don´t want to sound mean, but making sites with the only purpose to show ads is against adsense T.O.S. However I am sure there is also other reasons you made the site :)

    My tip would be to name the subdomains to less competitive key phrases, to rank high for the keyword "weightloss" will take a lot of time and effort and a very large linkbuilding project must be started by you to make it rank high for that keyword. Start with easier keyphrases and add quality content over time that is the best way to make your site a highranking one.

    You're targeted keywords are too hard to rank for... especially with sites like that... better start with a niche keyword and a CMS for the sites

    Nothing against tos of google adsense to create sites to show adsense ads.\

    That is the whole idea of adsense, to be on sites.
    Now just to have adsense and nothing else, tos no-no.

    I don't think so Monika is making sites for adsense. She wants to give good information on dogtraining and weightloss :) Anyway, Monika, it's really difficult to get good traffic from search engine for these words. What you can do is make a blog instead of using a subdomain and than promote that blog. You can get decent traffic if the content is good

    Hi Monika,

    Please find below some of my comments on your site regarding SEO:

    1. Correct the validation errors, we never know what will spiders do if they encounter errors..
    http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://weightloss.onlinetips.eu/

    2. Keep updating your content. If you do not have time, reprint articles or simply add in news feed from other sites. This will encourage frequent visit from bots.

    3. Use an external CSS file to increase your text-to-code ratio. This step is important as it helps to decrease your page load time (facilitate the indexing) and lower the file size.

    4. Bold your keywords to increase their weighs.

    Good Luck :)

    You will never know to what extend will the Search Engine tolerates..Validation forms the base of the webpage, there is no use coding a page that does not display correctly to the end user (it is the end users that consumes the content ultimately)

    Yes, bad codes can rank high at the top but there are more good codes up there ;)

    Wrong! maybe you should test your theories before spouting so called facts, I have!
    It is ok to give advice but do it based on fact and not speculation, if you are unsure say so, we all work on results and experience.

    One minute you talk about end user and the next spiders - they can be totally different things.
    It's a muddy puddle but for now - rest assured - bad coding does not hurt you in google, which I think is a good thing.

    Anyhoo you say bad coded, I say frontpage, google makes a concerted effort for mom/pop sites, if you think poorly coded and linked sites are shat upon I guess not as I am seeing google make a concerted effort to bring such sites to the fore.

    Stay cool, sji2671 :)

    My point is clear, having your webpages validated will benefit by:

    1. Showing the content correctly to the users.

    2. This is better for indexing, at least in my opinion ;)

    For the coding issue, I am assuming that the most validated webpages indexed successfully as compared to the bad coded pages (I apologise if this is not the case...)

    By the way, i think we are going off the topic. Feel free to post if you have any constructive comments for Monika's site else I think you should start a new topic to discuss any other issues.
