    http://www.etmonline.com.au ...is the site name

    mailto:maree.germantis@gmail.com is used on the mail icon image and is setup in the web properties.

    Henry, the Link box contents should just read mailto:maree.germantis@gmail.com; remove the site name.

    If you are referring to the email link on the contact page it works fine for me in Mozilla Thunderbird.

    Hi, I have spent a number of days playing with SEO on my xaraweb site. I understand it is not a perfect science but I decide to use as a baseline the results from SEO Toolbox. See attached pdf for reference.

    Web site is .............https://www.tjmdandenong.com.au

    • Keyword usage...still need some work to do
    • broken links - as per topic of this thread
    • inline CSS test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • Favicon test - inconsistent results. as you can see if you go the web site there is a favicon. But some reason it does not always report correctly
    • Site loading speed test - still to be worked on
    • JS Minification test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • CSS Minification Test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • URL Canonicalization Test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • IP Canonicalization Test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • Plaintext Emails Test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb
    • Microdata Schema Test - does anyone know how to do this in Xaraweb


    Xaraweb is closed and with the limited coding required to develop a web site and the hence limited knowledge of html, PHP etc, can anyone provide assistance in SEO'ing the above points.

    Appreciate any help in trying to achieve greater than 77/100

    regards
    Henry
