Hi all, it's the old carpet bagger himself from down under in Cairns, Oztrayliya 

Been having a bit of strife with the old K.R.A.F.T. these last couple of years, and finally figured out how to gain access to this fine forum once more.

Have been reading with interest about web sites on this forum, and, if I may, I'd like to ask the forum members if they would mind critiquing my three (3) web sites.

Please bear in mind I am not here to advertise my web sites, nor sell any services whatsoever.

My three sites have been put together by an ex-pat from Blighty, and I have been adding content to them.

All three of them are still "under destruction, err, construction" and will be for the life of those sites.

Without further adieu, I present them to you...................

www.get.shorty.com.au

www.cairnscommercialcarpetcare.com.au

www.cairnsleathercare.com.au


I am getting excellent hits on all three sites, probably due to the fact that Cairns is a very small regional city of some 160,000 people.

I particularly want to hear from those that find fault with them, as this will better help me to help my customers.

Thanks for any and all answers.

Ooroo,

Shorty down under.

Hi Shorty

Only two things stand out worth mentioning in my mind and thats 1, the text on the get shorty site is quite commercially biased and more about you than your customers and the other is that the leather site is quite full on with options. Other than that they are pretty sharp mate. Take a look at www.oakleafcc.co.uk This might help

I love the menu header on the leather site!

My tips would be to add more geographical keywords to all 3 sites (The names of ALL the towns, area's, villages, postcodes etc where you offer a service) and work on the optimisation of the leather site which is completely lacking keywords or optimised title tags even.

Thanks Nathanael, my work area is very small.

I don't travel very far.

I will be adding more key words to all sites.

I currently getting more info (such as yours) as to how improve my sites.

If you can get the map attached, the furthest I travel is south to Edmonton & north to Smithfield.

I am near Bayview, my furthest job is 15 minutes away.

Cairns is 7 minutes away.

There are only two postcodes for these areas.

Thanks for your feed back, it is most appreciative.

Cheers,

Shorty.


PS  :: If you can't get the map, go to Google maps and Google Cairns, Australia.

Then enlarge the map until you can see Smithfield and Edmonton on the same map.
