January 23, 201115 yr You should give Market Samurai a try. I think you can get a 30 day free trial here http://www.marketsamurai.com/ It has a great Rank checker for keywords and gives you other data as well as allowing you to drill down on keyword research.

January 24, 201115 yr Author Have a very quick look at your website, that really doesn't surprise me. The fact you're ofering SEO as a service on your website is insane to be honest. I'm actually surprised you think you can offer it as service. Honestly, no offence intended here. First things first, you have canonical issues with your listing in Google, you have www. and none www. version of your site indexed, which may at some point lead to duplicate content issues. Also, you're not doing any sort of 301 redirect to remedy this. As a result you have links pointing to bkwebdesignandhosting.co.uk and www.bkwebdesignandhosting.co.uk according to yahoo site explorer Take the term you're apparently targetting - 'cheap web design' -a very competitive term. Unless you do some insane link building is simply no way on this earth that you're going to be anywhere. As an example, I'll compare you site, very basically, to some others that rank highly for that term: bkwebdesignandhosting.co.uk (backlinks ~20, including those from www. and non www.) red-fern.co.uk (backlinks ~5250) totalcreation.co.uk (backlinks ~5100) coolcreation.co.uk (backlinks ~9100) As you can see after two months you simply have no chance of ranking for that term, the sites I've listed have been building thousands of links over a long period of time. The fact you've even asked the question, with the fact you have 20 backlinks AND you're apparently offering SEo as service is ridiculous to be perfectly honest. I won't go into any of the following issues with: Design/layout Broken links Poor quality articles added simply for SEO benefit (or lack of in this case) Absolutely stupid font color choices that make text very annoying/.difficult/impossible to read Do yourself a favour, have a proper readup on the basics of SEO - Google do an excellent beginners guide - before offering it as a service. cheers for some helpful info there, other times your being plain rude..
January 24, 201115 yr its shocking your website lies about valid html say no more Excuse me? Our website has valid xhtml AND css. Click the logos at the bottom of our site. There are no issues with our site at all. Edit: Also, why does your link to the 'portfolio' page just link to a contact form with no explanation at all? Edited January 24, 201115 yr by CityCM
January 24, 201115 yr He a little annoyed as I pointed out a the plethora of issues on his site. Yeah, all of which are very valid points.
January 24, 201115 yr it saying: Search completed! but no results or anything shows up :S huh If your not in the top 100 it will show no results. However it does have a slight bug and sometimes shows no results even if you are. Try repeat clicking on the submit button. Edited January 24, 201115 yr by neil0wen
January 24, 201115 yr Author Take it how you want, I honestly couldn't care less if you think I'm being rude - you've never said I was being rude when I posted help - weird eh? I wasn't trying to be rude in the least, just stating some facts: You have next to no effective SEO on your site You've targetted the incorrect terms for a new and small website Some of your color choices are plain stupid, as I can't read the text You DO post your blog entries purely for SEO benenfit - "css3 - create rounded corners" anyone? Compared to your competitors for the phrase you mentioned, you have next to no change of ranking at all as yopu DO have 20 backlinkls You DO have canonical issues (SEO 101 here, certainly not something someone offering SEO as a service should be having) You DO have broken links on your site (again, SEO absolute basics) YOu do lack a lot of basis SEO knowledge and should leanr the basics first In fact, it seems to be a pretty common scenario with you - someone posts something you don't like and you go all defensive E.g. look at your reply to CityCM's valid point in this very thread.The fact you offer SEO as a service when I you've proved that you know little about SEO yourself is insane. The internet has far to many one man band web companies offering the world, with little or no knowledge themselves. This issue always annoys me, as we have a lot of those type of people/web companies around here. this website was a test to see if i could build a site around wordpress... you think im keeping it forever or something... when i post most of my questions on here, its usually for websites that im working on for my company. I deleted one of the domains off google so cheers for telling me to do that, and btw try be more senstive towards my design and other peoplesfor that matter. we cant all be amazing designers likes you. it takes time. i do apperecatite help from the people on here but when i got people being rude to me its like wth...... however i will be looking more into seo because i no its cheeky offering the service but for any new clients i have i can do basic seo for them... Excuse me? Our website has valid xhtml AND css. Click the logos at the bottom of our site. There are no issues with our site at all.Edit: Also, why does your link to the 'portfolio' page just link to a contact form with no explanation at all? Well when i checked it from the valid link on your homepage it was red now its magicaly green(wonder why)... loads of your pages arent valid html... so maybe you should check that out.
