You might want to start by adding meta tags to your pages, this quite often helps get better search engine rankings.

and if you are too much of a newbie than you can even try something written by me http://www.latestngreatest.net/me/seo.htm


EDIT: I have removed the document mentioned in the above link

you say you have written the second one yourself? i you have would you like it to also be published on my website as it is one of the sort of things i am looking for on my website and also the same with your
Blow out your desktop with Mandrake Linux artical if that is also writen by you thats if it is written by you and would like it putting on my www.berrancenetworks.co.uk/lstuff/ page

Thanks berrance, well the articles are written by me, but you see they are already published on my website. I actually wrote them for a local newspaper and after they got published just uploaded them as a personal collection.

I hope that it can help you in optimizing your site,I can do one help, exchange links with you ,although your and my sites are 180 degrees apart

i am curently making the page about "Blow out your desktop with Mandrake Linux"

it is still having a few alterations but nothing much all the content is still the same and i am about to put a link to your website at the pottem of it.

the url to it http://www.berrancenetworks.co.uk/ls...e-blow-out.php

it hasnt got a link to it yet on the www.berrancenetworks.co.uk/lstuff page but will have soon.

i am also putting a feed back page about it aswell with a pole on how good it is if you dont want this please just let me know and i will remove it.

if you do want any of the content changing please just let me know

thanks
