My name is Dan and I sincerely hope that you can help.
I live in the U.S. and have a wife and 3 kids.
Our income plummeted a couple of years ago and now we are in a fight to keep our house, just to let you know our situation. I can't afford to make a mistake.
A few years back, I purchased a domain called MyTravelrite.com to sell travel packages through an affiliate program. I recently purchased MyTravelright.com, (for spelling concerns), and pointed it to my site. I tried to get travelrite.com but the guy wants $4,500 for the domain.
I started to work on the site maybe 2 years ago, but had technical issues and gave up. Now the site is up and fully functional. I never submitted the site because it was a work in progress. I checked the way back machine and got a result from 2011, but no image. Is the site still considered new and can the site do well with organic searches?
If you look at the site, all of the travelrite ads were created by me. I have similar ideas for youtube videos, but I’m still trying to do self SEO on the site. I don’t even know if my SEO ideas will work.
Because travel sites are highly competitive, I bought some current kindle books on SEO. I used google adwords for the ideas, so they may or may not work. I hope that you can help with this as well. I probably wasted the last month trying to figure this out with not a lot of money to hire someone to help. I am open to any changes that need to be made on the site. My home page is called The Travel Place, goggle shows 1.5 million global monthly searches with low competition. Hotels page is Your Travel Place, Flights page is Best Travel Places, 450,000 searches. Vacation Packages page is Places to travel to, 2.2 million searches. Am I on the right track?
My other pages are iframes with noframes text and pics in the background. I am open to make any changes to make this work.
What services should I be looking for to make this site work?

Hello Dan,
I just checked your website out, and I have a couple concerns:
Website logo needs a major redesign - no offense.
Website template needs a severe update, it looks like a website template from 2004 that was never updated/redesigned - no offense.
Advertising images do not look professional, looks like someone just made them with paint by copy & paste - no offense.
I went there and I got turned away because of the horrible design, and low quality images.. it seemed unprofessional, and I thought I was gonna get scammed if I used that site.
No worries though, these problems can be fixed. The template can be updated VERY easily if your using an iframe, the header, and footer areas need a new design.
Edit: You should fix these things before starting SEO services for the site.. believe me your 'image' sells.
Kind Regards,
Everett

I agree with Everett, you need a re-design, but not a complete one, just a small color changes, logo, menu, make links in the footer look like buttons... It's a simple thing and from this level to a good level, there's probably about 500% difference in conversions.
If you want to learn SEO, I suggest you check Matthew Woodward's blog and Youtube channel. He's one of the rare realistic guys out there that doesn't sell crap information, he gives you great information for free. Very newbie friendly.
For a project like this, you need monthly SEO to be done, that will cost you 200+$ per month and results will be seen in 4-6 months. I advise you to forget "I will get you to the top with this link pyramid" for 10$ type BS. I also advise you to focus on implementing attractive social widgets on the site.. . Than you should buy some FB shares, Tweets and so on. Not many, 100 of everything, just to build trust with your visitors. Now your niche is very competitive and many top sites from that niche have professional SEO work done with aged domains. Trying to outrank them just with link building will eat all of your nerves, so focus on attracting visitors to give you social signals, this is how you can probably beat competition.
And, you will have to write a blog just for SEO purposes because Google is biased towards fresh content.
