I taken a look on your website and below are the point hints for your website which would increase your traffic..

Θ http://bellsouthpwp.net/d/a/davyboy01/index.htm
Now take your above link ..
This url is very lengthy and you should put the index.htm on the root why you are using long folder structure....

Θ Don't mind but the site interface is looks like a junk so better try to improve the interface design.

Θ Use good content related to your business means search engine always look for the good information for the visitors so try to give maximum information regarding your business and the term used in your website even tough those are very common. Means make your website a Guide for ur visitor.

Θ The Good Thing about your website is Its more and more text. so always remember while design your website is that search engine are blind to images...so try to use where its very important.

Θ Then Do SEO as per the guidence JohnScott in his first thread : Do It Yourself SEO
ALways read that and get guide line from that and you would defently make out the way to increase the website ranking on search engine ranking and targeted traffic to your website...

By all the above method methods you will able to get targeted traffic. for more information you can contact me further...

The first thing I would do is figure out what you are tyring to sell and re-organize your site so it's obvious and easy for a new visitor. When I went to the home page, it was too busy and wasn't sure what you were selling. I am assuming by the name that it's computer repair. If this is the case Search Engines should NOT be your highest priority.

I am in Minnesota, would I take it to Kentucky? No. You could start by targetting users in your area like adding "Paintsville, KY Computer Repair" for your title. That way people in your area searching for computer repair will find you easier. Although it is kind of ironic if they are having PC problems the odds are that they are not online.

I would also network locally instead of spending so much time trying to beat the SE race. It's a moving target and MUCH LESS powerful than going to networking meeting with the local chamber of commerce or organizations like that. Networking is your best solution for this type of business because not everyone will need it.

But if you are absolutly determined to continue to fight the SE battle try reading the SEO Tips that John posted.

Not to take a "cheap shot" but I have noticed that you plug your "free article" in almost every posting as the solution, even if it doesn't apply to the subject. I did download and read through it and stopped after page 6 because, it's basically a HUGE ad to sell a "free" product that is NOT free.

From the website: Now Free Traffic System Costs You $97 ONLY!!

The only reason I mention is because DCompton said she had no budget.

Thank for the infro imaginemn, Yes it is a site for Computer Repair in and around Paintsville, KY. But it also a site for people to buy Computer parts from some well known companies like Tiger Direct. I was hoping to reach people around here who want their computer repair or a new computer build and people from everwhere through the USA who want or needs parts. I will try looking at the page again to see how I can make it more clear.

Focusing on promoting those affiliate links isn't going to help you get anywhere.

I really think you should just focus on making it more of a regional website, tailored to the people that are most likely to become your customers. Also I really don't see why they would go to you to buy parts, especially since you only link to other websites. I mean at the very least you should have articles with advice.

Also you should probably make your website a bit more professional. At the moment it all looks a little bit haphazard.
