I think you neglected to include a URL, which is probably why no one replied to your request (or you posted too soon after the New Year and no one noticed it).

ON EDIT: Ah...I see it now. www . lane . no

Sorry.

So, one thing you might want to look at is this video from Google's Matt Cutts on how tag clouds *may* affect your Google search rankings.

Do Tag Clouds Help or Hinder SEO?

I think your footer may be too large. Perhaps it can be better reorganized. I wouldn't put very many links in a footer these days, unless they are important. Visitors are more likely to scroll down or leave a page than to scroll back up.

You may have too many article links on the front page. It's hard to be sure about these things, but people have a difficult time choosing from more than 12 options.

I also think the masthead may be too large, taking up too much screen space and not offering much for visitors to engage them or encourage them to scroll down.

Hi ,

Few of My Suggestions would be
1) The Body of your site looks too White...or to say plain...try adding some more widgets on the right sidebar.
2) The content under the headers are too small...so people may have to strain their eyes to read it...make it a little big..or make it bold...
3) The Pagination Items...the links with the 1..2...3....4 are not in alignment...

What is the dark text under the logo, almost matching the background colour?

"Jeg skal låne penger her og nå! Jeg skal låne penger her og"
looks like text cloaking (the art of hiding text on the same coloured background) which, from what i understand, is not a best practice.

I've noticed something annoying in drop down menu, when text is on two rows background on hover does not cover it. May be you should use css3 instead of image. In footer maybe you can add 1 or 2 more columns.

Not that it makes any real difference to anything, but the close delimiter of an open ended tag in XHTML is ..." /> NOT ... / >


(The space goes BEFORE the slash character, not after it.)
