ideas on the layout/flow of the website?
is there enough info on 1st page that tells you what the websites about?
and what do you think of the artwork?

muchos grassias

the website is

http://www.didgiwidgi.co.uk
 
I was expecting the website to be really crap.

I was completely taken aback. Excellent website. Nothing fancy, but the style and layout work flawlessly.
Looks very professional, and the name 'Didgi Widgi' works very well considering the contemporary artwork on sale.

Some broken pictures on the FAQ page, and contact/news links don't work correctly.

As far as the art on show goes, I'm a massive fan of this style of photography but ONLY when its pulled off well.
In most of your shots, you've pulled it off extremely well.
Best of luck to you, you got this whole thing down to a tee.
 
See the bit where your keywords are, I'd change the colour to a tone fo grey that is just off white so that they are more discreet. Don't make them white (or same as background colour) though as I believe the search engines treat it as dodgy tactics!
 
There for search engines to find Matty, search bots crawl the web 24/7, visit all new and old sites and index the pages into their owners databases. These search bots only read text...nothing else, they don't care how pretty the site is.

The idea being when someone searches for 'photographs' through a search engine like Google, then Google looks at its database and provides the results that best suit.
Digi's idea is to provide plenty of keywords for the bots to find, in the hope that helps his site be found and offered more often .
 
Many people believe that Google no longer uses keywords in the meta headers and only uses the actual body content.

Not sure if it's true or not but I also heard that google does use your keywords but then compares these keywords to the actual content to see how related they are and subsequently use it's ultra complex algorithms to generate a score of sorts. :shrug:

I did loads of research and reading on SEO and it drove me potty as sources kept conflicting etc.

I prefer the "Field of Dreams" logic... if you build it they will come :lol:
 
I like the site and your work :thumbs:

With regards feedback:

On the home page - Not sure if they are meant to be links or not but following are what I thought were but didn't work:

The image for "original art" - I wanted to click on it to see your art work

The second menu bar underneath the above image "news/events/exhibitions" again links to nothing and may be that the information underneath is your news, events and exhibitions but seems to relate to something else.

The image for "Exclusive Limited Editions 1/95" - I wanted to click on this to see your limited edition work. It may be that all your work is limited edition but wasn't sure.

Hope this helps.

Yep, thats about right. At the end of the day Google is intended to provide its customers with the results they want...its not intended to help us website builders get our sites noticed or help us be found in anyway whatsoever.
