Hi Malc & welcome,
I like your template and site design and love the articles section that is a good idea.
Are you asking for ideas on where you can promote your articles?
Here is a little friendly critique:
1. Move your user navigation menu to the right side so the search engine spiders read it last.
2. Be sure that links that point out from your site are relevant to your site. I noticed in your links section that there is a web design site you are linking to. I also see outgoing links to ezinearticles.com which is not related. Be very careful about outgoing links they can do some serious damage to your rankings.
3. Are your articles original? You don't want to get indexed with non-original content. It's okay to have some but if the majority are articles that have already been indexed by the search engines from another author then this can hurt your rankings.
Other than that everything looks good, I like how you have incorporated adsense into your articles.

Okay, I see...
There are tons of directories that have sections for promoting a directory.
Browse through the directories found at the link below and submit your directory to their section for directories:

Hi seo2020,
You mentioned that it is important to have original articles on your website when getting listed in directories and indexed by search engines. My understanding is that the first 5-10 articles should be original to get indexed but can subsequent articles that are added to the site (1-2 per week) be obtained from article directories written by other authors?
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
topdog |

Hi Malcolm
Just a short message to say what a nice site. I am a sucker for a blue themed colour scheme anyway but this is a really nice little site - informative too.
Cheers

G'day,
This site has been created using xsite pro (XSP). One of the benefits of this software is that you can put your navigation menu on the left and XSP looks after the html code to make sure that the page is spidered correctly.
If you run this page through the search engine spider simulator at http://www.webconfs.com/search-engine-spider-simulator.php you can see that it all works out correctly.
I'm a big fan of XSP. It makes building these types of sites real easy.
And whilst I'm on the credits, here's a big Aussie compliment, Charles, This site is a ripper !! I've spent a lot of money chasing information not half as good as what is here. You have the start of a great community. My family thanks you ! |

Hi guys
Thanks to you both for your comments...much appreciated.. yes your right ajcs it was created by xsitepro.
I have playing around with RNW which makes wordpress more like a niche site. It seems pretty cool, I had a spare domain so I have put a site up...take a look http://www.psychicreader4you.co.uk
