Hi Arie,

There are a few ways you can do this, firstly the titles are displayed for each page in the tabs in your browser.

Alternatively SEOmoz tool bar has a "Page Elements" section which gives you lots of page information including the title and meta description : http://www.seomoz.org/seo-toolbar

Depending on your browser you can also right click anywhere on the page and click "View Source". Then look in the section for the meta data.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jean,

My advice would be very careful when it comes to hiring freelancers to build links to your site. There are some excellent freelancers out there but its a case of you get what you pay for.

Link building is evolving rapidly and yesterdays tactics such as blog commenting and 2.0 links etc generally do more damage than good, if you have a small budget then the majority of overseas link builders will be using these methods.

If you do decide to go ahead make sure you ask for examples of their previous work and review the kind of links they build, if they look spammy then stay away.

I would think about implementing a content based link building strategy or finding a freelancer who will. There are some great blog posts on here with ideas of how to do that.

Hope this helps,

Ben

Sure, the main part of the website will offer restaurant, finding, rating and online booking for around 8,000 restaurants

Hi all,

I am launching a new website around the end of October and I have purchased a great domain to use for it.

My question is should I put some kind of holding page up to try and start building up some domain authority in preperation for launch? Or maybe a blog at www.domain.com/blog and then keep all the blog content at the same location when the full site goes up?

Or is it best to wait and just launch the site when the first version is complete?

Thanks,

Ben
