I. On-Page SEO

B. Heading Summary

Similar to how newspapers and magazines use headings and sub-headings to help readers, websites can use special tags in their HTML. These tags not only help human readers read the content, they also help search engine spiders better understand the content on a page and what is most important. It is generally a good idea to use heading tags to help signal to the search engines, what the web page is about.

Total headings found: 6. See details.
More than one H1 tag found.

More than one primary heading tags (5 H1 tags found) have been found on the page. This is not a critical issue, but we suggest having a single primary heading per page.

C. Image Summary

Images are a great way to enhance a website from a user's perspective. However, it is important to note that search engine crawlers cannot really "see" images. So, if you have lots of images that contain textual content within the image itself, this content will not be seen by the crawlers.

HTML helps address this issue by providing a way to specify the textual content for an image using the "alt" attribute. The alt attribute allows web pages to assign specific text as the "alternative" content for images for those that cannot view the images themselves. This can be search engine crawlers or text-only web browsers.

Total images found: 17 , 14 image(s) don't have ALT text. .See details.
Too Many Images Found.

Having many images on the web page means the user has to wait longer to view your page. This web page has 17 images.

It's usually better to have fewer or smaller images. Sometimes simply resizing your images will make them smaller in size, and your web page will load faster.

D. Interior Page Analysis : 3 Pages Processed

E. Readability Level : Secondary / High School

This score measures the approximate level of education necessary to read and understand the web page content. In most cases, the content should be made to be simple so that a majority of the target audience can understand it.

II. Off-Page SEO

Off-Page SEO includes all the things you do to promote your website outside the design of the website itself. Getting more inbound links to your site, registering with directories relevant to your industry, and getting more pages into the search engine indexes are all parts of Off-Page SEO.

A. Domain Info

Most experts agree that you should register your domain for a long time, because search engines factor domain "stability" when looking at your pages.

Domain Age 6 years, 3 months, 3 days
Time To Expiration 8 months, 28 days
The domain for this website is set to expire in less than a year (September 26, 2010 ).

We would suggest renewing this domain with your registrar. Google and other search engines may penalize websites with domains that are set to expire soon. The reason for this is that many spam sites are often registered for short periods of time. Most registrars support paying upfront for several years and the cost is usually only about $10-$20 per year, so it is generally worth it.

Permanent Redirect Not Found

Search engines may think highriskmerchantaccounts.org and www.highriskmerchantaccounts.org are two different sites.You should set up a permanent redirect (technically called a "301 redirect") between these sites. Once you do that, you will get full search engine credit for your work on these sites.

B. Google Page Rank : 0

"Google PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves important weigh more heavily and help to make other pages important." - From Google

C. Google Indexed Pages : 42

A. RSS Feed : Not Found

RSS is an industry standard syndication approach that allows users to 'subscribe' to your blog so that they are automatically notified when new content is posted. There are a variety of free RSS applications available that let site visitors subscribe and consume content.

Though it is possible this site has RSS elsewhere on the site, it is best to make the feed discoverable on the home page itself.

B. Conversion Form : Not Found

The web page does not seem to contain any type of signup form where visitors can subscribe to a newsletter or future updates.

We would suggest adding some type of simple subscription form (at a minimum) that allows users to get email updates. This is a great way for visitors to express their interest in the company and its offering and for the business to stay in touch. Though RSS usage continues to increase, email is still what a majority of site visitors know and understand.
