    You cannot have a <hr /> inside a <font> tag.

    It's interesting that someone who has a SEO site doesn't know proper HTML. <hr /> is XHTML, not HTML, and invalid. Remove the slash. You should also have already been aware that your doctype is antiquated. Surprising coming from a purported SEO "expert".

    1. Learn basics of HTML and CSS
    2. Change old doctype
    3. Remove deprecated tags like FONT and replace them with CSS alternatives

    Sorry but it's just O____O that someone who don't have any idea how to create website with actual standards pretend to be a "SEO expert"...
