      Hi i am worried about my site www.in2town.co.uk because it it a magazine site i am finding it hard to find space to put text to describe the site for the search engines.

      I have put text near the top of the site which is under the logo and then i have put more text under the first set of headline where i have put a twitter sign and text but it does not look that great.

      I rank five in google for the word lifestyle magazine and feel i could do much better and i need to rank for other words but because my site is a magazine site, i am struggling.

      can anyone offer me advice and let me know if the text looks rubbish please.

        Diane-     Simple solution. Dont confuse what your customers see with what google will index......Build solid content in the footer that is about us, lifestyle magazine "sections", etc.......

        Then make sure the sitemap includes the information in the footer in a logical way...so start off with your major headings and then branch out into the sub headings......

        Then make sure your titles and meta tag descriptions re-emphasis that it is a lifestyle magazine.....

        here is an example from the new york times(see link below-scroll to the bottom of the page)....you will see the major headings at the top of the page are only 2-3 ......then they have all of their other informative and content rich headings listed at the bottom (12-15+)

        Hope this helps.
