Hello Friends......

1. Design a logo, make sure you have a good logo. This is your brand and what you want people to remember you for. This will generally be at the top of your site, so its the first thing people see. A logo/brand can say a lot about you so this is important.
2. Text on each page needs to be relevant, a minimum of 250 words, having keywords about your product or service is good to have in there. Possibly look at having copy written by a professional that knows how to write for the web.
3. Images are important also, good quality shots of a product can say a thousand words, bad pictures can bring down the look of the site. But make sure you don't overload on pictures.
