Hi smile

I only have time for a quick peek tonight - but will be back soon for a full review.

Here is what I see in just a few minutes:

At the very bottom of your main page I see this "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: setuplnavbar() in /home/unionpow/public_html/index.php on line 176" - you need to fix that.

Also your keyword meta tag is in serious trouble - the use of the keyword union is way over used and will be considered keyword spamming.

Do a search here at the forum for the guidelines of meta tags to gain more knowledge about this subject.

All in all from my quick peek - it is a nice laid out site.

I did notice that everything I chose for Pa and then my county, took me to the same information - if I chose mortgage or insurance I still went to the same page that told me I could buy a Toyota, and yet that page had no links on, just text about motorcycles, boats, law, finances, etc etc., maybe I hurried through that part and did not grasp it - but if it is not easy to use/follow most people will leave.

I will try to spend more time there this weekend.

So far, this is the best website I've reviewed tonight. The layout is nice and I was able to easily navigate around it.

However, when I did a "View Source", I did see a couple of items to be concerned with. The keyword and description tags are being stuffed with the term "union". The keyword tag is too long IMHO.

BTW, I had to clean up my own site for the same reasons. Several months ago I had someone "SEO" my site.

You may want to look at the information you give and the information people are looking for, they may not be the same.
- Under jobs you may want to include some apprenticeships information and where to obtain more information and applications. Also scholarship information.
- I checked the us map (choose your state) the map wasn't active, ie click on state instead of going to the box "choose your state" also the county was the same. May want to make the map active.
- You should use "overatute, wordtracker or similar to check your keywords and phrases, it will help a lot.
hope this helps

Thanks for the reviews so far...We have just made some adjustments to the site with more coming....We also are adding some very good content pages in the next week or so as well...

About the fatal error, can you please advise me as to what this means/is? I have a developer that can fix it if I tell her what the issue is...

Thanks,

J
