Hi everyone,
I was wondering if i could get some help with a website i have been working on for myself for the last year or so. I own a Kitchen company and the site is running well with about six hundred hits a month. The one keyword that i found get huge hits is the keyword "Kitchens". (I discovered this using Google Adword) Obviously this is a very competitive keyword, one which i would love to get a result with but can't with my limited experience. I designed the site with a friend using a programme called Coffee Cup. I am happy enough with the site but would like to spruce up my homepage as it looks a bit boring and un-inviting as a landing page. When using Adword the keyword Kitchens was giving me up to eight hundred impression per day so you can see how i would do anything to get this keyword to work for me.
I would appreciate any advice i can get and can PM my website address.
Many thanks in advance.

Throw the site up for C&C in the Reviews and Announcements forum Site Reviews / Announcements - Irish SEO, Marketing & Webmaster Discussion You'll find most people are happy to give comments and criticism both good and bad

Are we too connected ... I really think so

Trying to target kitchens might not be the best idea you've ever had.
It's a pretty loose general one word term. You might want to be a bit more specific about what you offer. Is it fitted kitchens, designer kitchens, cheap kitchens...? Is it region specific as well?

If you're running adwords create a specific page, which more than likely won't be the home page.

I tend to agree with MickyWall.

Have you installed Google Analytics on your website also? This is really important because you will see keyword variations. You might find that yes, you are bidding on the word "kitchens" but you are actually getting your best traffic from the keyword "kitchen renovations" or "kitchen specialist".

Kitchens is expensive as you say, but you can cut costs significantly and find all kinds of valuable data by looking at Analytics.

I just wrote a post tonight about setting goals using web analytics that may help.

If its a bit much all at once I apologise, but feel free to ask questions. I'm happy to help out.

Oh and if you could send us a link to your site, we would appreciate it.
