“robots” meta tag Apr 5, 2013

The "title" and meta name="description" content="your content goes here" tags are important for search engines indeed, as are e.g. the meta name="robots" content="index, follow" settings.


I’d say "index, follow" is generally unnecessary. It is the default behaviour unless you have overridden it sitewide, or you don’t have control over the site-wide robots.txt, which I presume would not be the case here.

Minor typographic comment Apr 5, 2013

In addition to the point Łukasz raised, I think there is an additional reason to choose a different font: You are using all caps a lot, but a number of very prominent letter pairs (in particular “RV” and to a lesser extent “TA” and “AT”) look wrong due to the font’s bad kerning. “SERVICE”, for example, looks like “SER VICE” to me.
