Hi Anna,

Just a brief look but you need to go into control panel and add keywords. Otherwise you wont be found.

I always liked the templates that 123 reg provide

It looks really good but the only thing i found was the text,maybe if you did it in a darker colour it would be easier to read.thats just my opinion though

"All our staff is fully checked and insured." Should be "are"

"commercial cleans: office cleans e.c.t."  what is e.c.t?

Regards

Hi,
If you are planning to make your website search engine friendly then the first thing you should do is to change your title tag. Use keywords instead of your url in title tag. It helps search engines to find websites.

Yep, check your SEO (its practically non existent so not worth having a site up if no one can find it) its done with a "sitebuilder" template as well,  i would see if there are any more exciting ones..

Thanks for all comments. Problem is,I know very little about SEO and I need to learn. I've added key words.

You can learn a lot about SEO by yourself. There are many tutorials and beginners guide available online for free. So if you really want to learn SEO then do Google search and you may find many new things.

sorry to be blunt but my reply is only meant to help you out.

i don't like the site one bit. there is not enough to it, no content, one big header which is not being used so just takes up space, the navigation links are very small and hidden it took me a while to find them. you've also got a lot of space to the left unused and no sign as to who you are. if i call you what company will i be speaking to?

also there is a few grammar mistakes e.g.

"Alternatively, sent your enquiry by email and we will contact you shortly."

what's your email address?

"For any other service, please contact us."

how?

your title tags are all the same and there is very little content on each page so no search engine will be able to tell what each page is about.

is that a counter on the home page? if so i'd remove it as it's useless for the customer and looks very 90's style. if you want to know who's been on your site then install something like google analytics which will give you some information about you visitors.

as you want a website i'd say save up and pay someone to do a basic one asap as you want a website that'll give results. i'm sure plenty will disagree with me but then at the same time they'd say to someone who wants their carpets cleaned to get a professional in as they want carpets that are clean and not just a basic wet and go. the same applies here. concentrate on running the business and getting new business and leave the website to the professionals if you can afford it.

just noticed you're site pages are numbers e.g. page0009.html which is also bad for seo.
