Got confused by the Google's view in SEO

Really?

So I should change all ch****ts to iso-8859-1 in each page?
Is the iso-8859-1 the only one to use?
What is this ch****t at all?
What difference does it make?
Why is this important to SE ?

keywords - style by lina

http://66.102.9.132/search?q=cache:I...&ct=clnk&gl=uk

My local forum

You can see that google highlights the my local forum - but does not highlight style by lina

So basically google is ignoring some of your text - which is what happened to me and to solve the problem I changed it to what I suggested above.

It's not part of any SEO strategy just one of those small coding issues that effects how a spider crawls a website.

Lina, if I were you, I would see an SEO company, or design company, I don't know how to cut hair, it would take me years to learn, and its the same here I am afraid, you can learn SEO yourself, the same as anything else, but it takes a fair while to conquer google.

Don't mean to be harsh, but explaining how it all works takes a long, long time.

You may want to speak to Tomsk on a more business side, as he will be more than likely able to sort all your issues out in half the time, and start getting your site much needed traffic.

What is the point of the forum then?

I think the point of the forum is to exchange tips on a two way basis - giving and receiving. It also puts small businesses in touch with other small businesses who can be of use to each other on a professional level.

It's like if a friend asked you to spend two minutes tidying up her fringe, you'd probably be happy to do that as a freebie, but if she wanted you to spend several hours cutting, styling and colouring her hair, you might feel a bit reluctant to give up that much time and expertise for free, so you'd either quote her a fair price for the job or recommend someone else who could do it for her.

I agree with the above

I was in a school governors meeting earlier this week discussing health and safety and there was a firm discussion on one point and I thought to myself there is a guy on the my local forum website who advertises H&S services I will ask him.

I have not yet asked him but you get the point.

Exactly, I will help anyone as much as possible, advice is free, but it is also a two way street as V-Mary said, a forum guides you in the right direction (hopefully ) but it is advice, and only you can choose what to do with the advice, for example if I asked V-Mary about voip calls, and then either ignored or questioned her advice, and then sit there scratching my head as to why my calls are expensive for ignoring her advice, if somebody is generous enough to give you their time and they know the industry a tad more than you do, take it onboard!

You wouldn't ask your mechanic to examine the x-ray the hospital just took!

And its always nice to give more than you get! (My Mum did finally get through to me afterall!)

Your joking?? You have set up a website, within a few weeks you have decent keywords on Page 1 of Google, and you have set up a business.

We all have different skills and advice to offer, we've all had different issues, and had to overcome different problems to acheive our aims.

Dont run yourself down, you have an amazing range of advice many new startups would be eager to hear about, who are themselves starting from scratch.

I think you have extremely high expectations of yourself, and you are throwing yourself head first into a world of SEO, which you only have a minimal grasp of technically.

You have had some great advice, and no doubt you will get plenty more, but do you really want to spend your energy learning the art of SEO from the ground up via a forum? If you really have the time to spend to learn it inside out, maybe Tomsk could recomend some books or SEO resources?

I am happy to help via pm or email for specific issues you may have - as for resources for understanding seo you could do worse than run through a few of Matt Cutts (from google) on youtube

Hope that helps
