      Thank you DarrenC
      I see your point. It would probably be better to have a comment section or something. I was thinking that people can contact me and then I get in touch to get communications going...
      I have another think about this. You might be right. It can be confusing.

        I looked at some of the pages.

        1. need a descriptive title with some good keywords in it
        2. need some content, some introduction with keywords for the search engines. Should follow basically the title of the page.

          You may want to consider centering your pages. Justified left gives your page a lot of empty gray space on the right. many people find it annoying and distracting.

            Hi....some quick comments -
            when I click on the link to your site I get the "shop by design" page which you have named 'index' then I see a link at the top of the page to "Home". Traditionally one's Home page is the first page a visitor gets??
            On your About Us page you state:

            SCISSOR*LION designs are original, fashionable and striking custom designs that are meant to be something different from the norm and totally authentic.
            SCISSOR*LION is all about design and we believe design is for the people!
            On your Home page you state: Our products are original, fashionable and striking custom designs. So if you are looking for something different and totally original you have definitely come to the right place. SCISSOR*LION is all about design and we believe design is for the people!
            I would suggest you make the statements identical or "radically" different?
            Back to About Us....t-shirt is normally written T-shirt & then
            :
            A little more than a year ago
            This led to the next thing
            slightly on the crazy side
            So after all that, and after getting home,
            But the site in general looks good :)
            good luck,
            david

              Thank you for that thorough analysis, ahimsa!
              I'll be looking into these points this evening, but great that you have made the effort to do a thorough check.
              Hope it was an enjoyable experience and that you even saw a few things you liked:)

                We thought SCISSOR*LION would be a site for a hair stylist.

                  Yes, I can see how you might have thought that... It is the other profession that you need scissors for, isn’t it. However tailoring and fashion design is also associated with scissors and although printed design and T-shirts are hardly tailored clothing; it is next to denim jeans one of the most worn fashion items of modern times. Can you imagine if there was no T-shirts or Jeans? What will people wear? The lion part is symbolic of the presence and boldness that is associated with a lion. The boldness of design with striking features.

                  I chose the name exactly for that reason because it makes you wonder what on earth is a scissorlion and what is it about. I was also looking for a word/name that would look good and works in lower and upper case. Glad it made you think of something though, but apologies for the disappointment. Who knows maybe in a couple of years I’ll open hairstyling studios called SCISSOR*LION.

                      To avoid avoid search engine confusion, create a catchy tag line for below SCISSOR*LION. Then add that to your meta-tag description. That was when one of your pages come up during a search, people won't over look your site.

                        Would consider reducing your external part of the page down to around 150kb from the 7-800 kb it is at the moment.

                          I don't see a page name...only Index. Also, the link on the picture of the lady in the pink scarf is not working. I'm curious how you made the middle box that changes pages. I like that feature.

                            Like I said before and the above also said the same,
                            the title index will probably get you no more than an inch farther in your
                            quest for SEO which sooner or later you will have to do.
                            The sooner, the better.

                            I have a suggestion.

                            You have http://www.scissorlion.com/home.html as Home.

                            Why not make it your index file. That's where you define and
                            explain your business, right? That can be an "entrance" to the
                            rest of your website and you can make the title accordingly per the
                            description on your page. By looking at the title, not only search engines
                            but humans as well will be able to tell what business you have described
                            on the page.

                            If you did that, then you must take care of the images so the
                            download is faster.
