Put the js in external file, or at the bottom.

'In the words of seo-guy' remove the following

<meta name="GOOGLEBOT" content="INDEX, FOLLOW">
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="INDEX, FOLLOW">
<meta name="rating" content="General">
<meta name="copyright" content="Copyright © 2000-2004,igotrealestate.com">

And the keyword and description look spammy.

well, you still have the js on your page. Get it out of there already!

I would ditch those extra comment tags you have in there...that is probabaly not going to help you as much as it could hurt you.

You have two http equiv meta tags in there.

You have a lot of links up there at the top of the page. I would think about maybe moving those to a separate page with some relevant content. Let the people and the spiders get some content along with the links.

From a content standpoint, how about selling yourself a bit more. You may have a good resource in terms of access to listings, but I am not seeing much on the page that would convince me to use you as an agent within the Minneapolis Market. I think the calendar with events and activities provides great info, but they almost dominate the page. Last but not least, your google ads could bite you in the arse. When I just checked out the page, there was a link for Brace Helgeson and associates. They appear to be a competitior.

Question

I love it.... feedback.. Thanks. How harmful is the Js how can it hurt you. Mauirealestatepete- The gooogle ads had the site indexed in aday. Thats why I have it. The sites only 6 months old. I guess the reason of not having my home page talk about myself is I think buyers are sick of reators saying there the best, how much they sell and all there achivments... I might be wrong. I guess I take the concept from sales. on listening and not talking, people don't want to hear that your a multi million dollar producer, they want to talk about themself and have you intuned to what they have to say. I havn't figured out anything else for content.. I've also learned that people don't read.. unless its news, events or in some way benefiting them. I would love some ideas on content.
