Websites Updating old site - Almost ready to go live

It looks great, i really like the header
Although, you might want to change the background

 

I noticed one typo on the home. one which could withstand the abuse and harshness that farming has upond the equipment.
On your testimonials: Bill From: Oak Brook IL
I had some spray left in the can from when I used it on my mower. So I sprayed my snow shove. Nothing sticks to it pushing the snow just got a lot easier.
Beyond that everything looks great.

This information is for all readers of this forum:
What 'Google' says about "meta tags"

The keywords list - is for you to list the keywords you optimized the page for
- make sure the keyword you use is the same as listed - word and words are not the same. Do not list empty keywords (words that are not used in the title, description, and/or body) they do not help.
Make sure you check the keywords in a keyword suggestion tool such as wordtracker
http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/
also get their free keyword information
What do I do next with these keywords?
http://www.wordtracker.com/usingkeywords/?source=freetool
and check your page in a webpage analyzer
http://www.creatingonline.com/site_promotion/website_checker.htm
check your page in a validation tool, such as HTML Tidy

Hi Dave, it's John (previously eVentureBiz).

Those are some excellent stats. Your bounce rate is really low and the average time on site is awesome. Nice job.

 

I think it looks great!

 

ishkey my buddy. Coming back to these forums brings back memories, just my 270 posts are now back down to something like 4 LOL.

I actually have a new site design coming out for our site. I hired out a designer/coder to build a site for us. I think he missed the mark when it came to getting in touch with our target audience so now I've recreated the site with my own design view and now I have a coder implementing it. The basic idea is in the Website Review area, but I've changed a few things since then.

Anyway, I like your site redesign over your last one.

So obviously you are bringing in targeted traffic. What kinds of marketing do you do?

 

Cool header by the way!

 

CovertPea, I assume you're talking about our current site?

That is a long time to load. I suspect it might be a WordPress plugin hogging up some resources and am taking a look. But our new site is almost completed which should load much faster.

Thanks for the heads up.
