Answer 1

After an initial review of your SEO metatags, here are some recommendations for improving their effectiveness.

1.  Remove the Flash Player music since it takes too long to download for dial-up analog viewers.

2.  Current:  <title>TheUmberStudio, Umber Darilek, Photography, Drawing, Painting</title>

Improvement:  Unless "The Umber Studio" is a major "brand," replace this entry with a more generic description of the types of photography your are offering, i.e., wedding, portrait, etc. and place a business locator, i.e., city, state so that out of state customers are not solicited.

3.  Current:<meta name="keywords" content="Umber Husain, Umber Darilek, Photography, Portraiture, Weddings, San Antonio, Texas, TX, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Blood Cancer, LLS, SA, Fine Art Photography, school pictures, portraits, photos, TEXAS, Dan Hagen, wedding photography, san antonio photographer, san antonio photographers, texas photographer, award winning photographer, hand drawn portraits, portrait painter, portrait artist, oil portraits, pencil portraits, PENCIL PORTRAITS, GIFTS, gifts, mother's day gift, The Perfect Mother's Day Gift, Birthday gift ideas, birthday gift ideas, Valentine's Day gift ideas, perfect valentine's day gift idea, perfect VD gift idea, WEDDINGS, ART, San Antonio Artists, san antonio artists">

Improvement:  Reduce the total number entries to more than 15 plural and compounds keywords; and of course, remove the spamdexed/duplicate entries.

4.  Current: <meta name="description" content="Umber Darilek, TheUmberStudio, Fine Art Portraiture in Photography, Drawing and Painting">

Improvement:  Redo the Description metatag so that it  consists of complete sentences, not merely a list of "keywords" and is limited to some 45 words.

The following article may prove helpful in designing your SEO metatags:

Placement of Metatags:

A ranking or search order does take place with Google

and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which

should consist of no more than 65 characters separated

by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic

terms, the goods and services, followed by a location

from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state.

The placement of a domain name which is not generic

within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your

domain name is a major recognizable brand name.

The second metatag is the "Description" which is

usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which

best describes one's goods and services.

And the very last category - "Keywords" are also

somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural

and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries

which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which

is defined as the loading, and submission of

repetitive words into a particular metatag category.

"Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported

to Google's spamreport.com can result in the

elimination of your website from their search

directory.

Here's an example of a very highly-placed website on

Google.com: Begin with the very "generic" search query

"sandwiches downtown los angeles," taking note to not

abbreviate Los Angeles to "LA" and of course, leave

out the parentheses ("). It will bring up some 2.4

million+ search results. Check out where "Nazos.net"

is ranked. It's ranked No. 1!

Again, Nazos.net's high web presence was achieved by

proper web design and placement of relevant metatags

according to Google's publication guidelines.

Good luck!
