Aup all
I am working on this site is there anything you don’t like?
The main reason for putting it on here though is, is the anything obvious I have missed for optimizing the search engine rank?

I am working on getting more links.
I have done the keywords as much I know how to.

When I mouse over the links in the side-menu, the text turns orange and is hard to read, in my opinion. I would also experiment with the font of the "Total Fleet Services" header graphic.

I agree with this.

Have you tried shrink or restore down the site in your browser window? When I do this the page layout and background become distorted.

That's how CSS works. It's called a liquid display or something like that. That's what I don't like about those "pure css" layouts that CSS gurus feel is superior to table layouts.

<div class="front-top"> </div>
<div class="front-line"></div>
Just a couple lines that get repeated which I don't see any real use in having.

Quite the contrary, a good css liquid layout is one that doesnt distort but retains its columns and design when the window is resized, table layouts require you to scroll horizontally when the window is smaller, which should be avoided.

I notice one place you can optimize your stylesheets.
Try getting rid of that P tag inside of an LI tag on your side menu. It seems kind of redundant since you have the same exact style for it in your styles. It might even increase your load time.
Overall, it looks like you spent a considerable amount of time to use a no-table layout. Kudos. As of right now, try using Google Sitemaps. It might help your site get indexed faster.

Yeah I have resized it and though it looked fine, though I did only check it with the resize in the Firefox web developers toolbar.

Cheers the site is already indexed and already has a page rank of 4 too I was just asking for anything I had missed that may affect it getting a higher page rank.
Things like trying to get the css files a bit smaller and improving load times cheers for that. Also I know accessibility is quite important now too as is good relevant links.

I should have mentioned this before. I was using IE6.0 when I resized things.
