I just registered here at WPW after the recommendation of the moderator Webnauts, and here is my first post.

I have build a site for a Horses Riding Club where my wife is a member.

Therefore, I would like appreciate a review and your feedbacks to improve.

My main concerns are:

* Markup (XHTML/CSS);
* Accessibility;
* Usability;
* Visibility (SEO);
* OS / Browser Compatibility;
* Anything else you think is important.

Please notice, especially in concerns of SEO, that the domain is brand new and never used before, and the site is online since yesterday. I hope though, that Google and other SE will find it through this post.

- Robots.txt already implemented.
- The site map will be submitted latest tomorrow at Google Sitemaps too.
- I am also planning to implement Google Analytics, an Urllist for Yahoo, and to submit the site is some SEO friendly directories.

The web site may be found here: http://www.rvv-vilsendorf.de/

I also would appreciate if you would give the site a vote.

Thank you so much in advance for your kind support!

I live on a horse ranch in Southern California so I am probably biased to your site because all of the horse photos and scenes of the land. It looks very beautiful there.

Overall, the site is very smooth, works great and you will be found in seach engines shortly, I'm sure.

I looked at your source code and at the meta tags and although I amy get a lashing from other members, I believe that the structure of the keywords needs spaces between the commas. Example: reitverein, voltigierverein vilsendorf, reitanlage, reitstunden, voltigieren, schulpferde,
Instead of the strait line of code:
reitverein,voltigierverein vilsendorf,reitanlage,reitstunden,voltigieren,schu lpferde,

You might do a search for that to see what others in this forum say about that.

Cowboy Up!

Just out of curiosity, why Google analytics?

Content :-)

Great design.

I would like to use something as AWStats or so ever, but Analytics was the best solution I could tell so far, because the server of the Club does not support cgi, Perl, PHP, etc

Thanks Kgun. We sure have an excellent content.

Bullet1302 you rule. So I don't even need to think about it! :)

I really enjoy seeing beautiful desighned sites. So easy to navigate and pictures breathtaking. It seems to a code so clear (Passed Validator). To the Photo Gallery page I would add into the images <a href=... some desriptions alt=.... It seems it would be more understandable what these pictures all about. Also you perhaps may consider to reduce some
pictures in order downloading would come faster a bit?

Otherwise thank you for sharing your bright and happy site to the world.

Michael.
