Hello (from Turkey), catalina,

I cleaned up your post just a bit.

We have a "Submit Your Site For Review" Forum, and the folks over there are often very helpful (even brutalally honest at times). I believe you might find more of what you are looking for over there as a first step.

You are in a very competitive market.

There are some "on-site" issues you may want to deal with first. I am moving your thread over there and we'll see if we can get you some help there first.

After that, let's look at SEM in that industry... Let's tackle the SEO issues first if that's OK.

Welcome to WPW,

I hope we can help you here

Ken

Notes to Site Reviewers:

This request came into the Google Forum.

At a quick glance, they are better off staring here.

From no DTDs on down, they need some guidance.

Anyone that plays;

Please keep the English plain, simple and play nice - this is an International Forum and requires that, in certain circumstances.

Anyone want to help?

Thanks,
Ken

As this is to do with "my line of country" perhaps I can add a comment or two as follows:
1. You need to tell visitors from the beginning that your focus is on property (for sale or rent) in Turkey. Indeed, this needs to be in your site title and description (i.e. the meta tags) in order to increase the chance of searchers finding (and being directed to) your site.
2. The music irritates me! It does nothing for the site that I can see/hear. If you must incorporate it, at least make it Turkish (or, heaven forfend, is it that already?!!).
3. Your profile talks about you more than about what your visitors are looking for. Who cares whether you're trying to build a franchise? People are interested in what you can do to help them find the kind of property they're looking for. (And if in fact your objective is to build a franchise, the site design and content need a major rewrite.)
4. At a quick check, some of the links from the home page don't work -- or at least the About Arkadasi one doesn't.
5. I don't altogether agree with greeneagle's opinion that you're in a highly competitive field. Real estate itself is certainly chocablock full of websites, but I doubt if there are many that focus on Turkey, let alone your particular part of it. The chances are that you could be among Google's Top Ten if only because that's likely to be the total of them!
6. What you could very usefully do is track down the various (and they aren't great in number) real estate directories that feature International websites. For example, look at http://www.internationalrealestatedirectory.com/ -- which, as far as I can tell, doesn't yet have you listed, even though it has a specific page for Arkadasi.

Despite my criticisms, though, let me add my welcome to WPW, not to mention my best wishes for success in taking on the challenges of the real estate business.
