Free Website SEO Report : Links2Countries.com | World Traveling Gateway
Sep.17, 2008 in
Travel Blog, Website Review
Travel industry is very competitive, as few other competitive industries like travel agents, holiday resorts, airlines, hospitality managements etc are related to this industry. So search engine competition is extreme. So it is not only hard to satisfy the readers with necessary resources, but also to get better search engine positions for targetted keywords or keyword phrases.
Here is some of my observations:
- Links2Countries.com/ may have good presense in Google, but it have not impressed me with it’s theme and content. There is no problem in it’s content - but it’s dull too. Not much graphics, maps, images of the tourist spot available.
- Header banner smokes in background, how come it is related to travel!
- Travel theme should be light and colorful, but it is not. However it is simple to navigation.
- Right column is too totally waste - first block shows “Blogroll”, which is not related to this blog. Then it shows “Meta”, again it’s not relation too much. After that, it shows “Category”, but shows in drop-down menu - unless you click it … you never know what’s in it. It shows also number of spam blocked - no no no … that’s not needed. I would like to see categories in list-style, tag cloud, search option, latest comments’ post etc.
- It has XML type sitemap, hopefully they are submitted to Google, Yahoo or MSN webmasters tools. Relation reading - Do I need to submit Website Details to Search Engines?
- Links2Countries.com/ has Google PageRank 3, 83 pages in Google, 97 pages in Yahoo! and 237 pages in MSN are indexed.
- There is no short-cut to bookmark any article to any social bookmarking websites, and no page has been bookmarked yet. Related reading: 22 Top DoFollow Social Bookmarking Websites - Get Quality Backlinks
- All in One SEO Pack plugins is used, but sometimes keywords or description is missing.
- Pages; like Article Submission, Photo Gallery, Links Directory needs more attension, content and well-formation of meta tags.
- I would like to see more article per page (currently 2 pages) and short description for each article. So it will show more articles but reduce amount of scrolling.
I guess that’s enough to restart SEO process again and owner should keep optimize their site. Wish them all the best!
