www.printsofcornwall.com

I am obviously missing something as the site only comes up if I print the full "prints of cornwall" in Google. I would like the various pages to come up if someone is searchng for those headings. I realise that search engine optimisation is a big subject but what are the basics for a VH novice?

Re: Please review

The main problem you have is no text on the image pages & your images are not named & have no alt text.
Your site is on a US server with hardly any reference to the UK & Cornwall. Instead of what you have below on your 1st page.

Creed Church
23 x 15.5 cms
"...a mile south of Grampound in the lovely hamlet of Creed"
No 1 of 13 £12 + £3.50 p&p

It could be!

Pen and ink artists drawings of England’s Cornish country side & coastal scenes.
This is an ink drawing of the beautiful Creed church in the civil parish of Grampound in the south west of Cornwall. The name derives from Sancta Crida, from Saint Cride, the patron of the church.
This ink drawing measures approximately 230 x 155 mm / 9x6 inch
Price = £12 + £3.50 p&p

Page No: 1 of 13

Then you can have?
Title as!
Drawing of Creed church Cornwall England.
Description
Cornwall Creed Church pen and ink drawing
Keywords
Creed church, artist, pen and ink drawing, Grampound, Cornwall, Cornish, England’s, coastal scenes, Cornish country side, Saint Cride, church.

Try & give the SE,s as much info as possible & in this situation some history. You will be surprised at how some will stumble across the prints when on a history lesson of Saint Cride or search of Cornish churches.

Re: Please review

Chris,

That is most helpful. I understand now what you mean. I will have a re-think about each page.

I had always assumed that too little was better than too much.

Re: Please review

Chris, I am now amending my site with your advice - not completely taken but almost so but how long is it likely to take for Google to pick up the revised pages. Should I resubmit on completion and with a new sitemap?

You will find goggle will pick up on it within a few days, if not sooner. The VH forum gets picked up on within hours & less on some days.
