All right, time to put on my "web design professor" hat here... Not a bad start. Only 6 validation errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.phojonick.com%2F and none of them major. (BTW, I highly recommend the "Web Developer" add-on for Firefox - checks validation & performs other useful tasks: http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/) I would strongly recommend replacing the nwrightphotohead2.png graphic with text: Search engines can't scan the contents of an image. Adding meta tags in the header is a good idea, too (even though most search engines don't use them any more). Search engines *do* look closely at the page title: Try something like: "Photography by Nick Wright - weddings, portraits, photojournalism" This gives more information and put the most important word first (where it will be indexed first and where it will be stored alphabetically when people bookmark your site). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
