I'm not an Search Engine Optimization expert, but know some basics I can help you with while you wait for an expert to happen by. I actually just replied to another thread of yours about turning traffic into $$$ and one of my suggestions was actually about focusing on SEO.

If you like, feel free to hit me up on IM and I can walk you through some very easy to implement things you should be doing on your site to get you pointed in the right direction.

Hmm, interesting...

I ran a business called Mad Entertainment, LLC (Madbars.com) which was similiar in nature. We received 10k+ unique visitors a month, spent $0 on online marketing, had an advertising partnership with Anheuser-Busch and ads from bars, restaurants, liquor stores, and entertainment venues. We sold the business in 2004.

Feel free to get ahold of me via pm or email.

It unfortunately looks as though whoever you sold your business to is not doing much with it currently. That's a shame.

Yeah, whoever bought it ran it into the ground a couple years ago.

You can see what it used to look like back in 2003 here:

I've already mentioned this before in a few other posts (will probably just make a thread so that I avoid repeating myself!) but this best way to select any software developer - ESPECIALLY ones specializing in Search Engine Optimization - is by checking out the portfolios of a number of them (and getting price estimations from each of them). Only by thorough research can you obtain the quality that you are looking for at a price that is affordable to you. I would suggest visiting a website like My Software Project - Home and posting a description of your project there. That is sure to generate a bunch of responses from interested software developers.
