Sloppy SEO – The below is a new client of mine http://www.windermereflowersandgifts.com that’s wondered why her traffic is so bad and can’t get on Google page 1.
The below is basic seo basic practice gone wrong this has been like this for a year and the client was paying a  monthly fee to http://www.egumball.com that clearly used duplicate meta tags and missed the key points below.
Other things missing

1. Missing <h1> <h2> Tags
2. Geographical Seo Text for small local businesses that only wants local customers, missing regional search terms like orlando wedding flowers,

3. Missing link title
4. Badly wrote mata tags
5. Telephone number on the website was a graphic only and not compatible with smart phones.
6. Only had 90 words.
7. Loads more errors to many to list here

Missing link titles check
Google you site by entering just the web address missing out http and www
