    Nice clean, simple site. Frankly, the site is rather small, and this limits the size of your images which are so important to "selling" your opporutnity, IMO.
    Are you using H-Tags for your minimal Content, to elevate it best possible?
    You know that the SE's do not evlauate Content in text boxes (the scrollbar type), right? This might make you reconsider some way to make your Content more emphasized or ready for value.

      Ditto with Gulfcoaster on the site size & images. 10000 wide is becoming the norm now days. Would also be worth physically resizing the thumbnails to enable faster loading & clearer image.

        Thanks Gulfcoaster and Chris for your constructive feedback.

        I'll look at the sizing which seems a great idea.
        I'm not familiar with H-Tags. I'll try and find out what you are suggesting here. I have included meta-tags, use Google analytics, have a sitemap and robots file too.
        The thumbnails are resized with Pixresizer but is the suggestion to reduce the actual thumbnail area or try to reduce the filesize further?

        As an aside, is it beneficial for SEO to have pictures with long file names which mirror meta-tags or not?

        Many thanks again for your time and comments.

        Kind regards

        Andy

          Never measure the height of the mountain you're climbing. At the summit, look back and see how small it really is!
