Bank Holidays Blues

Well here the ends the bank holiday .. and spending time looking to develope the website at trying to get a learn more about seo ...

The problem i find is there is so much SEO information out there to read and some contradicts the other..

Currently i think most of the optimisation is due to page ranks with the companies.. but it can be a hit and miss affair..

We spent a load of cash with a company which had a high page rank and google likes but a local competitor who pays a basic listing but has a common directory name like "A1" or "Elite" which a lot of companies uses it increase his page rank ... which we paid for his no 1 position in google in a way..

What a bummer.. so we have cut that down .. but its knowing what else a humble ICT person can do..

There is a local SEO company which has been recommended .. but its how do you know if they are any good that want £850 and i know that no one can g/tee results but need to create traffic which I know I have done my fair bit since i been talking the result of the website http://www.bradrail.co.uk/ from about 10-15 a week to about 100 .. i know the site needs a lot of work ..
since each section is pretty bare and doesnt give the customer any idea of price.. just a general description of information like vertical blinds, roller blinds, venetian blinds, awnings

I have tried to tweak the keywords in meta tags and also try and do different descriptions but i hear more about less about keywords and more of keyword density.. do i get rid of the keywords.. ???

Half of it is having people within the company right good content but what is good content, and how should i appease google and other seo with things to help its ranking

I am interested in any comments people who could assist or advise with

Anyway back to the grind stone more later...

First post about Bradrail Blinds and Awnings in Nottingham

Well welcome to my first blogging site.

I am just a humble IT consultant who helps out a few friends with IT issues.

Currently I helping out an friend with loads of bits of bobs based at Bradrail Blinds and Awnings in Nottingham.

Talking from learning about blinds and awnings and writing software to calculate size and shapes and redesign of their website on top of learning SEO stuff .

I love problems to try and solve.. i am no specialist in any area.. but able usually to conquer most things.

Recently went to a BBSA show where i learn and saw load about awnings and blinds

Had a really good chat with a really nice bloke called Marc from Weinor who just such a nice bloke.. and really knowledgeable about engineering and awnings and since Bradrail Blinds and Awnings are the East Midlands Premier Awning Specialist throughout Nottingham he helps me with all the technical stuff about specifications and etc.

I can see why weinor make the rolls royce of awnings.. especially after seeing some pics of those lovely cheap chineese awnings which the fitter at Bradrail have had to go and investigate..

Hopefully i will post some of them on here.. cause you will laugh.. !!!!

But loving the new perfectfit blind system from Louverlite who have created a way of having blinds on double glazing systems without drilling holes.. but that is a whole new chapter
