Most people are very happy to have there site links on forums to help with promotion with the SE's.
I am more than happy for my site links on forums to help with promotion with the SE's but if all my customers get when they type my url into googles search engine is the problems I'm having building my website...does this really send out the right message?


I have subscribed to google adwords, verified my account with google, posted my site on here, tweeked my metatags, keywords and page description and used the metatag analyliser to check the results, have links from a couple of other good websites and submitted a sitemap to google.
"Tweeked my metatags & keywords" On most pages you are using key words that are not within the text of the page or title. (A no,no)
My website is heavily based on pictures, I don't think people who visit a cake designers site want to read too much about cakes, they want to look at the work I produce. If you look at the bespoke cakes gallery page (the one I've been tweeking) I have put titles on the photo's, originally the keywords were directly linked to the photo's in the gallery but on the analyser this came up as poor??? I will carry on tweeking them and make them more relevant, but don't I also want the keywords to be the words that people are most likely to put in their search engine ie. wedding cakes, birthday cakes as opposed to eiffel tower cake or chocolate box?

Is it just a case of wait and see, only I gave a customer my website address yesterday and she couldn't find it (not very professional)
She must of jotted it down wrong as this is unique to you.
I cannot access my site via googles search engine either, I can via my aol toolbar though.

Also if the title of my page is called bespoke-cakes-gallery, and the text bespoke cakes gallery appears several times on this page and the lightbox is titled bespoke cakes gallery...why on the analytics site does it tell me this is a terrible title fo my page?
bespoke-cakes-gallery should be Bespoke cake gallery
OK, I thought everything had to be lower case and no spaces, will go through all the pages and change them back to caps with spaces.

A speedy reply would be most appreciated as the headache this is giving me is unbearable and I'm not getting any actual cakes made while I'm trying to resolve this issue
