Review: Sleep Disorder Website cpap.com

[Johnny]

Howdy,

1: The URL of the website

http://www.cpap.com

2: The keywords you are targeting

a. cpap
b. cpap mask(s)
c. cpap machine(s)

3: Any and all SEO that you have attempted

Backlinks and Offsite Support:

Digitalpoint shows us as having 122 BLs, which I know is questionable with Google's link: but we show far more comparitavely than our competition. We continue to attempt to build these.

We are #4 on allinanchor for cpap, which is THE keyword for this business and the one everyone is really after.

On Site SEO:

I recently put in this structure on our main page:

title keywords /title

h1 title of page, related to title keywords /h1

h2 mention one of the keywords /h2

p block o' text with keywords from h1, h2 and title /p

h2 mention another of the keywords /h2

p block o' text with keywords from h1, h2 and title /p

We ALT keywords into each of our images. How spammy is this as the image for our CPAP Newsletter is named "CPAP Newsletter" and happens to be a pretty good use of the keyword.

We've used mod_rewrite to index each of our product pages, and used CSS to make each entry on our Printable Price List appear like text, but really be a link to each of our product pages. We thought this would lead to a lot more of our keyword rich pages being indexed, but so far this has not been the case.

4. Problems we know of

a. We need unique titles for each page.
b. Our page is table heavy, we may be making the spider work too hard for our content.

Feedback is GREATLY appreciated.

Regards,
Johnny

Take out the following meta tags

<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX,FOLLOW">
<META NAME="AUTHOR" CONTENT="Property of US Expeditors Inc, cpap.com">


Take this out

<!-- Fireworks MX Dreamweaver MX target. Created Thu Nov 14 21:55:39 GMT-0600 (Central Standard Time) 2002-->


Put this in your external style sheet

<!--
.topBG {
background-image: url('images/reapeter.gif');
background-repeat: repeat-x
}
-->


Hyphenate your page & image names if possible

Consider going to a CSS layout instead of tables, it will clean up your code making it easier for the SEs to crawl more of your site. It will also reduce the bandwidth you use & make the pages load faster.

If you're interested in trading links with my www.vsssleep.com pm or email me. Good luck! :D

I thought it was always considered to be good to have the robot, index follow tag?

[Johnny]

Howdy,

I thought the same. Can someone please explain this?

[jlknauff]

They will do that on their own unless you tell them not to via your "robots.txt" file.

[Johnny]

What does this do?

Put this in your external style sheet

<!--
.topBG {
background-image: url('images/reapeter.gif');
background-repeat: repeat-x
}
-->

[wlh]

it cleans up your code so that bots can get through it faster...

create a new file style.css and copy and past that code in there. Then from your web page type in this to replace that code you just took out:

<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

[wlh]

oh and when you put in that code, take out the <!-- and --> - you dont need these
