The white bricks in the background is an eye sour and a distraction when scrolling up and down the page. I think a solid color would look better in the background.

ok SEO check of your site shows :
Title relevancy to page content is terrible.
The Title relevancy to page content is 0%

Description meta tag is too short.
This tag contain 21 characters. This is too short for what we would consider a 'robot friendly' description. The minimum number of characters we recommend for this tag is 50.

Description meta tag relevancy to page content is terrible.
The Description meta tag relevancy to page content is 0%

This page contains too many URLs.
This web page contains 102 urls. Some Search Engines have problems with more than 100 urls on a page

thats from a SEO check ..

so some work needs to be done at the back off the site

good luck

The site looks nice. It looks like a fun site.

However, from an SEO perspective, to expand on Sparks199's comments, there are a lot of flaws.

This starts at the top of the page with the title tag. The title tag should be no more than 64 to 74 characters long (depending on which expert you believe).

It is your most important SEO real estate, so it should include one or two keywords. If you can squeeze in a call to action that is good too, but that can be in your description.

You don't have a lot of text. That can also hurt your SEO efforts.

SEO is all about text. You need to have your keywords, plus semantically related words scattered about your body text.

If you fix the stuff that Sparks199 mentioned including the title tag and add some text at the bottom of the page, you might get a lot more traction from the search engines without doing much else.

You're doing a lot of other things right.

I agree with the previous comments about your site needing much more SEO work

In addition I would suggest making a good looking menu using CSS, that would definitely improve how the site looks

Best of luck buddy

I would suggest having a professional logo made. Your logo looks okay, but not great. Also, I would try to add a bit more color to your site, and maybe even a large fun looking image near the top...remember that most of your visitors are "visual" so they want to see something awesome that attracts their attention without having to read too much.

Best of luck!

I agree to change your logo.
I have made one for you. Take it like a christmas present and use it if you want. I also attach the photoshop file.
The green menu letters are had to read on dark blue.
Put some light colored and bright gradient on the background.
