Improve Site SEO
-
Hey Guys I was wondering if you could give me advice to improving my SEO.
I have used all the tools on this site and have improved it a lot already, but wondering if there is any glaring issues, that I could fix now

You may want to "niche" down with your target keywords (go a little more long-tail). Neither "wordpress" or "magento development" rank you in the top 200 results, and "small business web design" you're on the 11th page. One option of getting more targeted, would be to target businesses in your area - "Small Business Web Design in Atlanta, GA"
An XML sitemap is not a super critical point (especially for a small site), but certainly highly recommended.
Yes, run a site search (site:treelifedesigns.com) in google, and pick out all the pages you don't want indexed. Add them to your robot.txt file.
I didn't look at off-page, but there's always link building and social sharing that can boost things a lot as well.

Hi
Great design! What keywords are important to you?
-
You can remove "home" from the homepage title tag.
-
You can create an XML sitemap, unless I'm just not seeing it.
-
You could optimize the title tags on other pages, depending upon your target keywords
-
You could get more content (text) on the homepage for engines to grab onto.
-
There are some pages, like this: http://treelifedesigns.com/image-slider-seo/ that are in Google's index that might not need to be there.
Those are just some quick thoughts...

Does css float affect SEO?
It is generally believed that the closer the content is to the top of the page, the better it is for SEO. If that's incorrect, please let me know. I have a 2 column site where the left menu is navigation and right side is content. Obviously, the left menu appears in the code before the content does, but I can flip them around via css float. If I do that, the content will appear on the left visually, even though in the code it still comes after the left side navigation. Do either positions affect seo?

Should I bother with branded keywords in my onsite SEO improvements?
Someone recently told me that using branded keywords extensively in your copy and titles may be unnecessary so long as you have a substantial catalog of back links containing keyword rich anchor text. Can I take this to mean I can privilege non-branded terms over branded in my onsite SEO efforts?
