there are whole websites dedicated to SEO and even then search engines keep moving the posts, and other start ups in you area steal your thunder, SEO is a constant thing you have to keep at.

one thing is for sure though 'Contant is King'

Search engines will give each webpage a score if you like, so take for example where you have listed services 'Fit ceramic tile' Fit travatine' etc. etc. I take it you wrote it like this because you thought that may be a search term someone would use and you'd score highly. It does have a value but not so much as if it was backed up by other content that is relevent to it.

Take this page by example, this thread could have 5,000 posts with only the word 'metatag' writen in each post, Search engines would ignore them altogether because the page would have no meaning. So if someone searched for 'metatag' then this page would be on page 1,000,000 of goggle

I'm rubbish at explaining things, but you get my drift right?

Stop me if you already know this by the way. ohh I'm also no expert on the matter but have done a fair few hours research so i'm starting to understand it a bit more
