I would like a critique of my Web site;
www.hgraphicmedia.com (http://www.hgraphicmedia.com)
I want to make it more SEO friendly.

I like it. It's clean and easy to navigate. One thing you should do is go over it for spelling/grammar errors. I just saw a few minor things, such as "In my 20 years as a designer I’ve been very bless." "Bless" should be "blessed." "school was out and I was bore stiff." "Bore" should be "bored." And "My years of experience has giving me the opportunity" should be "My years of experience have given me the opportunity."
As far as SEO goes, you may want to revise your Title tags to include more of your keywords. Things like "Graphic Design" or "Freelance Designer" would help.

A graphic design professional is your best business allied.
Should be "your best business ally."

Great thank you.
I guest working on a web site after 12pm is not a good Idea.
Eyes start to fail, mind wonders... typing abilities go bad... etc. etc.

Hi hgraphicmedia,
there seems to be a few typos throughout the site. Sometimes it is worth perhaps asking a friend or colleague to proof the text for you as after a long period of looking at your own work the errors become increasing difficult to spot ;)
It doesn't look complete.
I think the problem is that it appears to be floating in thin air.
Perhaps constrain it to a box or rectangular layout.
In addition, I'm not really getting why you choose to have dotted lines run down the left and right of the center container but, choose a solid line on the right- looks awkward. Either place another solid line on the left or lose it.
Furthermore, I'd rethink the logo. Doesn't appear as if to much time or thought was put into its creation. I think it might hurt more then it helps.
Also, the right div on every page is showing up with a gray box that has nothing in it. Therefore, I would recommend omitting it unless you use it for it to contain something on every page- like with the homepage. Where you use it to place the website example. Otherwise, it just looks a pointless use of space or you don't have the knowledge necessary to omit it on other pages.
Lastly, I think to follow common practice and ease navigation for your viewer the link text should turn to that blue color when you rollover them rather then staying the same color.

It looks a little vacant. Try coming up with some type of visual vocabulary for the site. Also add some interactivity on the navigation and indicator as to what page your on. Right bar looks weird with nothing in it.
