I really would appruciate some reviews of my new site
This is a brand-new out of the box site, that is less than a month old. I am trageting the keywords that are placed in the title and headings.
The site is a promotion for an established web site hosting company who are looking to redfine their web presence. I am looking for comments on web copy, ability to navigate effectively, the look and "feel" of the site, and anything that could be done better. Please note that the only major changes I have in mind at the moment is a small arrow on the menu denoting the page that the user is currently on, and better categorising of FAQ questions. The company is http://www.cheap-web-site-hosting.com.au. ___ cheap web site hosting |

Page loads; overall subjective impression: Okay.
The page doesn't validate. Content fonts are not sized absolutely, which is a good thing. But the left side navigational elements are. Personally I don't see a single thing wrong with this, but it so happens that they are <li> list elements. Resizing the page font causes the amount of margin-width to increase around these elements and can force some of the bullets into the dark blue part of the page. The curves are a little jagged, which is probably the very first thing I noticed about the page. Might want to fire up Photoshop and take another whack at 'em. Navigation seems clear and clean to me, I didn't have to stop and think "Now where did they hide this...". The anti-spam measure at: http://www.cheap-web-site-hosting.c...t_answered.html is cute, but it looks tacky and unprofessional. Suck it up and put a properly formatted mailto: url in. ;) Anchored text appears to be in a different font face than the surrounding content. The red text, while highly noticable, is ugly in my opinion. I'd stick to bold or if another color is absolutely necc., something a bit more muted. The table containing your H1 tags and the navigation drop down doesn't have an absolute width; when the H1 tag wraps (as it does on many of the FAQ pages) it causes the navigation drop down to jump around. I'd set a valign/align for that table cell at a minimum to stop the jumping. Why are you putting two s before your H1 tag? It breaks the page flow up IMO. I don't know if I'm qualified for a judgement on SE-readiness, but it looks to me like you have plenty of content relavent to the keywords you seem to be targeting. I did notice your page is 27.92% entropic; you may want to watch yourself for keyword stuffing. I didn't get that impression as I read your copy though. |

Thanks for the detailed reponse devniall. I agree with all of your points and will modify the page accordingly.
The font size issue with the menu is something I hadn't noticed before and I'm not immediately sure how to fix it, but I will work through and get it right. I assume entropic is related to keyword density because I have never seen it before. If it is then a major reason for high density on the page is the titles of the pages that ae included in the menu. I have gone with keyword titles for seo reasons. Cheers __ cheap web site hosting |

You might try just replacing them with images. Quote:
Yup, it just measures the "uniqueness" of the page. I found this shell script somewhere: Code:
#!/bin/bash
SIZE=$(cat "$*" | wc -c).0
CSIZE=$(gzip -c --best "$*" | wc -c).0
ENTROPY=$(echo "scale=4; $CSIZE / $SIZE * 100" | bc)
echo "$* is ${ENTROPY}% entropic or less"
Unfortunately I can't remember where. ;( I've found it useful. Good luck! |
