Hi there:

I went to your site and I have a couple of comments. First it wasn't that obvious to me that the site was about Thailand may be because the first flag I recognized is the UK flag. I had to scroll all the way down to realized it is a site with information about Thailand.

I will probably put the images first. Also the navigation on the center...mmm, I'm not sure. I will try to have the navigation in the left or top side of the website. That way you can leave the space in the center to provide more information.

Try to organize the topics of the navigation a little bite more.

For SEO. My first advice is to go to: http://www.delorie.com/web/ses.cgi
This site has a search engine simulator, so you can see what terms SE are seing as relevant.

Keep in mind that the most important meta-tag is the Title and still description. Use your main keywords wisely within body content, title & description.

I will appreciate if you can look at my ne site
gas scootersand give your comments/ideas

The site address is: http://www.creativerides.com

Thanks and good luck!

Thankx for your comments, looks like I've got a bit of reorganisation to do.


Your site is very sweet. loads very quickley. When I get around to making my online shopping area I hope that it works as well as yours.
Thanks again

A. I agree that it does not look like the web site is about thailand.
B. The reason your webpage loads slow is because
i.) Your table encompass the whole page.
Split up your page with <table>..</table> so the
web browser refreshes when the tags are closed.
ii.) The one image you have is 1,148,880 bytes. Make it smaller please.
iii.) Do you really need the javascript roller in the titles. If your serious about SEO - remove it.
C. The scripting font is very difficult to read. Decide if you want to just make a 'cool' art site or one with content that people can read.
D.) What is the focus of your web site ? Need to see that on top. All the rules of writing a good web page apply. Make the content available in small bits with clear headings. Most people do not have the patience to read long paragraphs, and just end up reading the headings.

Hello simplythai,
I agreee with the other members that one cannot tell what this site is about at first. You have to scroll almost to the bottom to find that out.

I suggest that you remove the scrolling title info.
1. It gets a little annoying
2. No good for your seo

Consider reworking your navigation. Either put it up top next to a picture / logo or on the left side of the page ...in the green area maybe?
Here is an example of a neat css menu-

Also try to keep your navigation consistant on every page. Some pages you loose the main menu and are forced to always you the back button.

On the home page it is probably no necessary to put 'Home Page' at the top of your page.
1. The user probably already knows this
2. It is a waste of valuable space

The font is large and you make your links even larger. I would suggest keeping everything the same size font.

You are on your way to having a great site. Post back when you make any changes :)

Thanks for your advice..

I have redone the home page and changed the navigation. Haven't done the rest yet (the other 119mb 79pages). Any further advice will be received graciously.

Thanks again "I didn't like the way it was either"

Hi,
Your home page looks much better :)

I also suggest that your computers link open in a new window. It is different from the rest of your site and you don't want your users becoming lost or forgetting their way back to your simply thai home page.
