Made some changes...How did I do?

Hi, I feel like the newliest newbie ever on this forum ops: . But, in any event, i heeded some advice and made some changes to my home page. Per Donna, my title was cumbersome...so I changed it. I added my keywords to the text content and added keyword descriptions to my images. Anyone care to do a second look over?

1) My page loads slowly.... a suggestion was made to have content load first and then the header. How do you do that?
2) I did not put any <h>s in per my webmaster/host. The rep there said they weren't all that important. Confusing to get so much contradiction in info.

Ok, so any takers? I am a professional incorporation service. My main keyword is Nevada Corporation. My site is www.nev-corp.com.

Thanks as always. Teach me good so someday I can give it back! ;-)

Regards,
Kat

but I would follow SEOs advice over your webmasters advice. I have been given advice from lots of webmasters that no little about search engines. I followed the advice here and have seen a difference. One of the suggestions I was given was to add <h1> tags and I have seen a big difference since doing that. Before you decide its a waste of time I would try it. Maybe it won't make difference but it can't hurt.

I don't know how to speed up your loading time.

Oh and btw I thought I was the resident newest newbie here. Don't feel bad. Its all a learning game.

Kathy,

if your webmaster/host does not think that heading tags (H1, H2, H3, etc) using keywords and keyphrases will help your SE positioning, then don't listen to what they have to tell you about SEO. I would spend a few hours, yes hours, browsing this site. You will find that there is everything you will need to know to get your site optimized to a very high level. Sorry I can't go through your site item by item for you, trust me just look around here...you will soon find your answers. Start by doing some searches for "newbie" and you will probably find many threads with more information than you care to read.

For starters, I would see about getting rid of that javascript on your page...took a quick look at the source and I did not really see where it was being used. That is probably slowing things down quite a bit. Also, images are probably the biggest reason pages take time to load. Try and keep your pages down to 12-15k or so.

Good luck with your site.

This thread is a excellent place to start learning about seo http://forums.seochat.com/t8704/s.html , instead of removing the js maybe just put it in a external file something like this "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="java.js"> </SCRIPT>"
Im on 56k and the page loads just fine for me.

page titles, header text, inbound link text, those are all important.

each search engine has it's own algorithm, but those things are somewhat important in just about any large scaled hypertext search engine

your host is out to lunch if he thinks header tags mean nothing. tons of good info and tons of misinfo just about everywhere. the trick is to sort one from the other. the people who are moderators here and those with thousands of posts probably know well what they are talking about.

many people are afraid to ask dumb questions too, but I know a good bit about seo primarily from reading forums and asking dumb questions. I was really really ignorant to seo and the web about 1.5 years ago, but you can learn it much faster than I did if you are actively engaged in forums such as this one.

It is really easy too. I have changed some of my scripts to externals but I need to do it on all my pages.
