I guess it will takes time to take off. I am still doing the link exchange (as I read some of the advices from this Forum -very helpful), and trying to think Rolling Eyes , how to improve the website traffic? Do I need to change the website layout?

Your site is designed with frames, and poorly I might add. Frames are not a good way to get a decent SE ranking.

The other problem I see with your site is that when the browser isn't open to full view (or the viewer is viewing at a lower resolution than 1024x768), they have to scroll sideways to see your entire page (as well as down). This isn't good either.

When you use frames, you need to set up special tags, and take care with links so that spiders can get into your site and index all of your pages. I am no expert with frames by any means, but I didn't see this happening with your site.

You have, from what I can see now, a site that will be very hard to get ranked at all.

Me Lah, I would recommend you read the SEO forum here, and a few other site reviews that were done before you completely change your site. Yes, it is great that you are getting rid of the frames, but you may as well do everything you need to do at once to save work later. That is, of course, up to you.

You want to consider your meta tags, meta title, using heading <h1> <h2> etc. tags, as well as targeting good keyphrases for your pages. You also want to consider the addition of actual good content that will be fodder to the SE's and keep your visitors happy. It isn't an overnight thing, but worth the time to learn and work on it.
