Hi, I have had this sight up for some time but would like to update it with new fetures and layout... What are your thoughts? The site is meant to mentor students on their way to becomeing airline pilots www.airlinepilotmentor.com Thanks
The left sidebar contains only 3 links: Become a Pilot, Career Development and Airline Pilot Life. The rest of the sidebar are left blank. It is better to remove the left sidebar altogether and move the 3 links to the header. ________________________

Falcon is 100% correct the problems he pointed out are important. I dont agree with the other post. A page that is to the point and not full of junk is a good thing to me. When I want info I want the info and without a bunch of stuff in the way. I think the site looks good . But get the meta tags a.s.a.p. so you can be found.

I too had a look at your meta tags. I guess you put them there before I joined the thread. You have duplicated your tags on every page. They all need to be different. If you use Google webmaster tools you are going to find this listed as an error. If you don't use the tools, you should. You will learn a lot. I didn't look everywhere but found your links to choosing a flight school and financing your flight school totally uninformative. You need more content than what you have. Facts, figures, statistics, etc. What you have is B.S. (No offense intended). I find the overall appearance of the site very good as well as the navigation. I do think you need a darker font and more content on the home page. It is somewhat sparse. I really like the simplicity and color scheme.
