Default Tips for SEO

Hello

In order for your site to do well in terms of google listings etc i would advise the following points:

1. Use Header tags in the body. Eg in the code for where champions are born should look like <..h1>where champions are born (but without the full stops. these are there so this post does not pick up on the code)
2. Use the same meta keywords in your content.
3. Use robots re-visit after 7 days meta tags.
4. Try and always add/change your content. Google loves sites that constantly get updated.
5. Depending upon how much you would like to make and how much you are willing to spend, set up a PPC Campaign. This will guarantee targeted traffic.

In terms of design i would do the following.

1. Apply on states for graphics- where the mouse goes over an image which then leads to another page, have the image change colour slightly on the mousover to indicate a action.
2. On the content pages, remove the scroll bars and have the text fully showing. Users will get the impression there is a lot of reading if a scroll bar is present.
3. Try and remove the image repeat on the left green column. This can be done by adding background repeat:no-repeat; into the style sheet.

Apart from these i think it is a really nice design. Just be careful that it does not come accross as a product site and not an information site.

Good luck
