    Hey, I have a startup website. It's been around now for about 6 weeks, and I have only made about 54 cents, lol. Does anyone have any advice for my site?

    As a quick fix, move all of your CSS to your external .css file and add a keyword rich meta description. Also, instead of using a SPAN tag to define the style of your headings, use H1 and H2 tags. This will let the engines know what you consider to be important on the page. You can still use the same styles, just apply then to the header tags. Finally, try to avoid using "style=" in your code. Define all of the styles in your external .CSS file. You may have to create a few new classes in your .CSS file, but it will make your code much cleaner.

    Going forward, you may want to look into using CSS to move your navigation and Google search further down in your code. Right now your "Welcome Back College Students!" heading is 70 lines down in the code. Using CSS to rearrange your code could bring it to within a few lines of your opening BODY tag.
