      There can be many ideas… I guess you should focus on some press links.. as they are always high quality and some links from magazine sites as they contain lot of traffic. Infographic to your researches can be a great idea!

      You can also try guest blogging in your niche and some related niches… also if you have budget try some videos as this will get your links, traffic and business leads at the same time!

      Hope this helps!

        There are too many images IMO - the page is massive - the only text based content is in the middle of the page which isn't ideal.  To be brutally honestly I'd scrap it and rebuild the site using a content management system.. break the home page down into sperate relavent pages..

        Again this is only my opinion - but with my experience in the UK a site like this really wont rank well..

          Whoa, there are way too many images above the content. This image should be a table http://www.drycleaning.com.sg/images/Laundry-Dry-Cleaning-Rates.jpg. If I remember correctly, Google looks at the l x w of images of ads and

          s and may think there is not enough content above the fold. Your content is way too far down the page.

          Just a question, why Copyright © 2004-2014 in the footer and not Copyright © 2004-2013?

                I got it on the rates images.

                The reason why i am using images for the rates instead of table is because if that is a table, i will be copied by competitor sooner or later and i will be hit by Google panda because duplicate content.

                I will add more words above the image.

                Thanks for your help!

                  I wouldn't worry about being scraped. My sites get scraped. SEOmoz gets scraped all the time. I your case, I would do two things. 1) Build the table and immediately resubmit that page in GWT. 2) Insert a row at the bottom of the table and put anchor text so if anyone does scrape your site, they point a link back to you. Or another approach is to insert a top row in the table and make an image saying something generic like "Singapore Dry Cleaning Services". Have the image on "your" server and/or make it link to your home page with the alt tags like alt="Singapore Dry Cleaning".

                    I really thank you for your help.

                    I have changed many things on my website.

                    I will think go study and do research on what is GWT.

                    You are very helpful. Thank you!

                      I know that I'm not directly addressing the question, however, you should really proof read your website!

                      There are countless grammatical / spelling errors on the homepage alone. This is on your testimonial:

                      | "I was searching online and found Singapore Dry Cleaning. Their price are very reasonable and also very efficient service. I am using them for quite awhile and i am very pleased and impressed with their service. Will recommend them to nayone who needs laundry and dry cleaning service." |
                      | Miss Cathy (Ang Mo kio)" |

                      I'm not saying that spelling is a big part of Google's algorithm, but it will make you look far more professional to your customers.

                        You have an eagle eye.

                        Thanks for pointing that out
