Website Review and Suggestions

**kokomo** · 03:54 PM

Hi there,

Made this website from scratch in notepad, over the course of about the last 6 months. Its constantly evolved as i got a clearer idea about what exactly i wanted to do with my business (and slowly improved my html/css skills).

Ive got it to the point where im starting to get happy with the bones of it, the graphics and the navigation.

Any feedback would be fantastic.

Especially on: Keywords and searchability, ease of finding information, whether i should change to a blog for my news section and recommendations of suitable sites.

If you get the chance id also love it if you could tell me what values my site makes look important to my business.
Im trying to get an idea of the emotional response it creates and whether you would actually proceed to book a job from me. (be honest!)
why/whynot?

Thanks heaps!
Kym.

And where might we find this masterpiece of creativity?

To see if its searchable, the trick is that you have to find it yourself!

Cant believe i did that.

Have you done any keyword research for your niche? Also your description meta tag is empty.

Hey your site is so cool and very much attractive..you just have to set right keyword for your site. Goodluck!

Thanks for your feedback

I know nothing about choosing good keywords or description content so ive left them pretty half-pie for now with the intent of coming back to it.
I also didnt want to generate traffic until its more finished.

Is there a resource somewhere which explains those elements and whether to be specific vs general, how many to use, etc ect?

Hello Kym,

This might be a bit of a help, Keywords.

Exactly what i need! Thanks!

Quick question though.. do i also want to do desc/keywords for the iframe content pages?

Ive searched for my site before, and the results at the top are the iframe inserts, rather than the index page. It bothers me that they display without options to get to any of the other relevant pages associated with them.

I don't like the font... But the gallery photos are great!

I think you should change the news to a blog, it reads like a blog already.
It looks very kid friendly!

Hi Kym,

I would also use your keywords on a local level.

Don't forget your sig links here that will help you in building backlinks to you site

Congs. great site but i think you can change background colour. Then for selecting keywords
you could use Google insights , it is powerfull tool.

Wow! Google insights really is awesome!! The results were the opposite of what i expected too, showing that more people search for "pirate" than "fairy" and that facepainting is pretty much redundant haha.

Thanks for that!
