Okay guys, have given my website provider a verbal spanking and I think the javascript should have gone now from my menu. Also those google map things should have been done.

I have no idea how to tell, so would appreciate someone good, kind person having a look for me www.ninasnanniesforpets.co.uk

Many thanks

petnanny, i am not sure what you want to ask? you have javascript menus that true
the pop up menus in fact are javascript menus and you mention google map and what page you put it on.. by the way search engines don't index javascript navigation menus, that means some of your internal pages may not be indexed well, so are you sure with that?

I cannot remember who posted the following, but have been trying to get my website provider to implement these and it sounds like they still have not been done. BUM

A javascript menu uses a scripting language called javascript to make your visitor go to a link when you click it. That whole red menu thing on the topleft of your site is a javascript menu. Javascript menus are difficult for robots to use to discover what pages there are on your site. Although you have links using other methods (ie regular hyperlinks), I don't know if you have such links everywhere and for scaleability you'd probably be better off moving to a different type menu, ie a styled list. It'd look the same but just work differently in the background, and it doesn't come with the issues that javascript menus do for robots. It's easy enough to replace - either teach yourself how, but since it sounds like it's not your bag, ask your website provider to do it for you.

An xml sitemap is, for lack of a better way to put it, a big list of files on one page, which helps search engines know what's on your site. If you google xml sitemap generator it's easy enough to find sites which will do this for you. All you have to do is make one, and upload it to the root of your site. You should then go tell google about it using either google's webmaster tools OR:

create a file called robots.txt which tells any robots that come along and visit where your xml sitemap is. Robots will generally look at your robots.txt file first before looking through a site. It's always better just to shove your sitemap location in your robots.txt because that way you'll ensure that other robots that come along which understand the sitemap location will know where it is.

Still no change.

Do you really need a content management system for your website?
If not, the simple thing to do is to get rid of it completely and create a
normal site, so you don't have to rely on someone else.

all your navigation links can be followed.

no sign of a google site map.

Have you changed your title as you will lose rank with whats there now .your page copy want working on and you should include "pet sitters " in your title.Ninna's Nannies should come last in your title. if at all.

Hi Petnanny,
At the very bottom of the home page, just above the footer, you have active links to areas that you cover. Peterborough is listed twice, and on one occasion it is not even a link (between Northamptonshire and Overseas).
