Visitors
We use several different tools to estimate web traffic: Google™ Ad Planner, Google™ Trends, and Alexa.
A low rank means that your website gets lots of visitors.
Your Alexa Rank is a good estimate of worldwide traffic to your website, although it is not 100% accurate.
Reviewing the most visited websites by country can give you valuable insights.
Compete Rank estimates traffic from visitors in the US.
Content
This is the number of pages on your website that are indexed by Google™.
The more pages that Google™ indexes, the better.
A low number (relative to the total number of pages/URLs on your website) probably indicates that your internal link architecture needs improvement and is preventing Google™ from crawling all pages on your website.
Resource: Check here to see if your content has been plagiarized. Then use the free software Traffic Travis to analyze your relative position for specified keywords.
This lists the most popular pages on your website.
In-Site SEO
Home analysis
Keep your URLs short. If possible, avoid long domain names.
A descriptive URL is better recognized by search engines. A user should be able to look at the address bar and make an accurate guess about the content of the page before reaching it (e.g., http://www.mysite.com/en/products).
Keep in mind that URLs are an important part of a comprehensive SEO strategy.
Use clean URLs to make your site more "crawlable" by Google™.
Resource: Search for a good domain name here. If no good names are available, consider a second hand domain from Sedo. Go to EuroDNS to register the country extensions for your target markets.
To prevent brand theft, you might consider trademarking your domain name.
Your title contains between 10 and 70 characters, which is great.
Make sure your title is explicit and contains your most important keywords.
Be sure that each page has a unique title.
Resource: Use this snippet-optimizer to see how your titles and descriptions will look in Google&trade search results.

Alternative text (the alt attribute) is missing for several images. Add alternative text so that search engines can better understand the content of your images.
Remember that search engine crawlers cannot actually "see" images. The alternative text attribute allows you to assign a specific description to each image.
Alternative text describes your images so they can appear in Google&trade Images search results.
Check the images on your website and make sure effective ALT text is specified for each image.
Click here to find out how to optimize images for search engines.
Restrict the number and size of images to optimize your website's page load times.
Resource: Use the Wayback Machine to review the design of any website in the past.
Your website's ratio of text to HTML code is below 15%, which means that your website probably needs more text content.
Improve your SEO by adding more relevant text to your pages and increasing your keyword density.
There are no frames used on your homepage, which is great.
Frames can cause problems for search engines because they don't correspond to the conceptual model of the web. Avoid frames whenever possible.
No Flash content has been detected on your homepage, which is good.
Flash should only be used for specific enhancements. Avoid full Flash websites to maximize SEO.
Although Flash content often looks nicer, it cannot be indexed by search engines (however this may change in the near future).
This advice also applies to AJAX (however this may also change in the near future).
