    First up welcome to the forum - good to have you here!

    When it comes to the site, I like the template - it looks nice and clean.

    Just a few things that jump out at me though:
    • Have a read through of the SEO section of the forum- there are a few basic things that you could improve on. Your title tag for example reads Tyche Poker which I'd change to a more generic term as I doubt many people will be searching for that term. Similarly, have a look at your URL's. Personally I reckon you'd probably be better shortening some of them (tychepoker.com/bingo-bonus rather than tychepoker.com/Bingo-Great-Sign-up-bonus.html
    • Don't overstretch yourself. Just competing in one gaming vertical is difficult, and it looks like you're trying to rank for poker, bingo and sportsbooks terms all from your first site. That may well be tough
    • Get some content up there. Write, write and write some more as there's not a lot for Google to find at the moment!

    Just my two cents

    This is what I initially wrote.

    When you write your title meta tags you should focus on keywords and making it seem relevant so people will click on it when they see it in Google. At the moment each of them starts with "Tyche poker - xxxxxxxxxxxxxx".

    Put something relevant to what people are searching for at the beginning of the title like "200$ Party Poker bonus" or "Online Poker Guide". That will give people a much better idea about what your site is about than "Tyche Poker".

    If you saw searched for something like
    Tyche Poker - Poker - Some background to the game. 150% sign up bonus
    Introduction to Poker - Learn the History and Rules of Poker
    Then I noticed that some of the text on the site seemed totally out of place.

    If you are going to use other people content, which you shouldn't, be sure to check if you are actually allowed to do so and under which conditions.

    Hi Guys
    Thank for that advice. I thought I had read the wiki details from where I got the background stuff and it said it was copyright free thats why i used it just to fill the page until i get it up and running i will recheck it thx. But i do agree I need to write new stuff. I find it hard to imagine what a site looks like without text so hence the generic stuff.

    With regard to seo I am reading the stuff hear but my little brain can only take so much at a go. Will improve title tags. And hopefully next week is writing content.

    Thanks again and still willing to take more advice or critism.

    Unknown webmaster- Thanks for the link to that wiki stuff I redid the search and their is a whole paragraph that states free to distribute or copy for private or commercial use. And then theres your link which is completly different. So thanks a million better safe than sorry I have removed content and will re do it.

    I do have a question re trying to cover to much. Does it really harm your ranking to be spead over 4 catagories- poker,bingo,casino,sports. I thought that the similarity in them all being betting would have been an advantage. Really would like some feedback on that.

    Hi Pomp
    Yes being a rokkie I f****d up. Had to take text away. I will repopulate. But thanks for taking the time to look.
    I think I should say to all that I need some time to correct my problem and not waste your valuable time. Also it would allow me to ask for another revue when Im back up.
