Hi Jab.

I have to agree about the links. It causes confusion. Either make them links or remove the underlining.

Statistically people dont read websites, they scan them. And ... it takes up to 25% longer to read / scan on a computer screen. Maybe you could change your font to a more readable font like verdana or helvetica.

As for search engines, there is a whole lot you need to know to be able to attack that beast. There is a whole industry about it ... called SEO (search engine optimisation).

I have also just started a website about the health benefits of Green Tea, but I have been using a product called Site Build It! which is a tool that emcompases everything you need to build a successful site and business.

If you want to have a look at my Green Tea site for some ideas the URL is:

http://www.green-tea-health-benefits-exposed.com

I really think that as an informational site, Site Build It! may be able to help you, especially by removing any of the technical barriers that us web site builder newbies could experience.

My About Me page describes how I have been using SBI to create my site, and my recent Alexa ranking of being in the top 700 000 websites. Not bad for less than 2 months.

Please dont hesitate in contacting me if you need any other information or help. I would love to help you out.
