Ilidrake Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 I had the chance to design a website for my employer. It can be found here: www.stevenjohnsonconstruction.comIt's a work that will be changing often so please help us get the word out and link it to your websites as well. Thanks all. Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted November 27, 2014 Hash Fellow Posted November 27, 2014 Congrats on the gig! You're not doing the oil rigs anymore? Quote
Fuchur Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Is there anywhere the address of the company on the website? When they need to come to my house and do some work there, it would be interesting to know from where they are coming, right? The website may have some drawbacks for search engines, but I think that may not be very important for them, right? And I did not really get that one: www.lslbc.louisiana.gov > where do I have to go to check for StevenJohnsonConstruction? I could not find them using the Contractor-Search. Hope it helps a little... See you *Fuchur* Quote
Ilidrake Posted November 28, 2014 Author Posted November 28, 2014 Thanks for the feed back guys. I did in fact quit the oil rigs finally. I got so tired of being gone. I'm in the works of updating the sites apperance and info and your feedback is really helpful Fucher. Could you explain the drawbacks for me? Quote
Fuchur Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 You are using very old techniques combined with newer once. For instance you use layout-tables in your code (which is really something you should avoid at all costs these days...) but more important: You use javascript to switch pages. Google is getting better at using javascript too, but it really is a very risky way to do it that way. And if you move the content out of the image using javascript, it would result in Google only being able to index the first page of your site. There are possibilities like loading the site with all the pages below eachother and than using javascript to hide the others till someone clicks on the link. This will still not give a own link for each page and like that google will not index them each by itself, but it will be better. (the problem here is, that content lower on a page is often considered less important by SEs. On a own page / own link this would be better. Additionally it is not possible to link to it like that, since there is no real link for the subpages. As I said, this is not really the worst thing for normal users (not good neighter...) but for search engines it is close to deadly... See you *Fuchur* Quote
Ilidrake Posted December 2, 2014 Author Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks for all the nifty advice. The website is really only one page. I'm simply using a carasoul technique to slide pages, but they are all there and being crawled. I've completely reworked the site so help me out and go check it out!!! Quote
