Default Web Site Help!?!?!?

Hey guys,
I recently used one of the website templates available here to use on my new web site. www.choicelandscapesllc.com

It is still under construction but please take a look and critique. I want it to be the best it can be.

My problem is...on my interenet explorer tab when the page is minimized on the task bar it reads "my company". How do I change it so that it says Choice Landscapes?

Thanks

Tom

Do you have Skype.com? I am on it now and we can chat about your website. The program is a free phone program my username is GopherHaul.

Can you get that downloaded and installed? If you don't want to thats fine, I will help you on here.

Let me know, Steve

Just to keep everyone updated, we were able to get onto skype and talk and get Tom's website fixed. I also recorded some of the conversation for a podcast I will be posting later to share with everyone.

This Skype software is amazing.

Steve,

Thanks for the help earlier that new software you are using is great! I have another situation I was hoping someone could help me out with. I just pulled up my company web address using google. I typed in "choice landscapes birmingham". The link that it gave said "My Company" and not "Choice Landscapes". We corrected that problem on my web site earlier today. Do you know why Google still shows it as "my company"

Thanks again,

Tom

Nevermind!

I found the situation. Google has to update. I got the following message. Google last took a snapshot of my web page on Jan 29. See below.

Hey Tom, Keith here.

If you have a Google Account, you can also force googlebot to visit your site. This will not necessarily get your site's change indexed immidiately but it will let google know that it definately needs to take another look.

Good luck:

Keith

Hi Richard:

Not to be too confusing but if you have a google webmaster account you can add sitemaps and then force a crawl by googlebot of newly updated sitemaps.

This is different from simply submitting a url.

I know you know this but others might not understand the distinction.

Keith
