This is just how the search engines work :) It will take some time for them to completely index your site. Typically the bot comes, indexes a page or 2, then waits awhile. Eventually it will be fully indexed. You can try to get some deep links (to inner pages) and get those indexed as well, but it won’t help much. I just wait for Google to fully index my new sites.

Ok, I guess i have to wait then. Thanks!

It loads a little slow, but not too bad. I think it more has to do with the banners and the progressive tickers. Those can take time to load depending upon how busy the servers are. Still, fairly fast-loading for me.

Perfect, it must be me. You are correct about the progressives as when they are down for some reason, then site takes ages to load

Learn to do this yourself. Most of these ‘companies’ are crap. I can do a better job myself than 90% of them and I am not that great.

understood – can be a bit painful though … will try

Meta – Your keywords and description tags are ‘stuffed’ and Google is going to think your site is spam based upon that alone. Get rid of 95% of that.

What exactly – do I have too many keywords? Is there a reasonable number of keywords one should have? Also, why do u say the description is stuffed? please explain

Bold – Way too much bold text. The search engines are not going to know what the home page is supposed to be geared towards. This is the gateway to your site, so make sure the bold actually relates to 1-3 topics (not 20).

I hear you and will get this changed. Thanks!

Fine, understood.

Image Alts – did ok with those, but check your alts to make sure they really match what the image portrays

Titles in a tag – You have no titles in your links. Add those

Understood

You just have to work on it :) Even if you start off by linking through directory sites, you are still getting links. Everyone has a different model including paying for links, using directories, using forum signatures, etc… Be creative.

Ok, but how long does it take before u see your PR moving up a notch.And does it harm sites that have PR1+ to link to a site that has no PR?
