SEO page advice on this site

[freedeed]

Hi Bill and team

I've been running a small website for a 1.5 years now, but in Jan 09 I started to SEO optmise the site and generate more traffic.

Its slowly ramping up, but I'd like it if someone could have a look and see what else I might be able to do SEO wise.

the site is »» FREE Deed Poll name change «« - Changing your name by deed poll, legally for free!

It ranks No1 in google for "free deed poll", but for "deed poll" it doesn't come anywhere near the top.

I've been slowly generating back links for a couple of weeks, but will have to wait and see if my ranking improves.

It depends where you're getting back links from. Are the sites completely unrelated or are they relevant backlinks?

BTW, well done integrating adsense.

* Just a little piece of friendly advice - Google may consider your comment to be "deceptive":

"You'll find the link to the name change deed poll form in the YELLOW navigation bar."

Although this is true, the adsense ads look like menu items and Google sees that as tricking the visitor.

I only mention this because a friend of mine got banned from adsense doing the exact same things in addition to other weird stuff.

Hope this helps,

Artemis

Hi Artemis

Thanks for the reply. Its very hard trying to get backlinks for a "related area" - not that many areas that relate to deed polls.

However - I have done some article submissions and tried to hone it to the area of law/family. Like I said I've only just done that, so I'll have to wait and see :-)

I was wondering about the YELLOW nav bar comment, and it didn't use to be there, thought I'd give it a try, think i'll change it soon :0

My real question is to the internal SEO of the site. Inner pagerank (NOFOLLOW links) etc and title/descriptions.

you should build more pages of content to get more traffic. Build these pages around long tail search queries that are being searched for in your field.

In order to increase the pr of your site continue using SEO and do link building and social bookmarking to generate more traffic.

There's always high competition when you opt for short tail keywords so you need to drive more links from relevant and authority sites to improve your SERP for the short tail keyword.
