HI,
I just got finished recently creating my website using shoppingcartsplus.com and Dreamweaver. I really have no website development skills whatsoever. I still have somet things to tweak. However, my major problem is that my site has been up since the end of May and no search engines recognize it through my keywords. I read something about a robot.txt file. I may have added the "robot.txt" somewhere on the homepage by looking at someone else's site. If I did, there is no file attached to it.

www.silvermoonjewelry.net (http://www.silvermoonjewelry.net)

Please let me know what I can do to get this site recognized or if I have errors that are preventing me from doing so, as well.

I'd appreciate anyone's help and/or feedback.

Thank you,
Justine

I notice your meta tags appear twice, in the header and in the body sections...I guessing but search robots might penalise you for doing that. As getting noticed, getting other (popular) sites to link to you (use link swapping) can really help your ranking. Name dropping in forums like this also helps.

I see you have .net rather than .com (or .biz) at the end of your address. Strictly speaking .net is for internet related site and this again might be causing you problems.

Since you're in the web site review section I'm going to chip in a couple of comments on you page design...lose the star-field background and make you're page a little narrower and you're site'll look a lot better.
