Search Engine Optimization is pretty difficult, ask your friend to optimize the website and make it search engine friendly.

your website would be listed on search engine anyway but not on first page top 10 or get high rank if not optimized.

All these elements can have a POSITIVE effect on the way google ranks sites based on ON-SITE SEO:

1. Keyword in URL
2. Keyword in domain name
3. Keyword in title tag
4. Keyword in description meta tag
5. Keyword in keyword metatag
6. Keyword density in body text
7. Individual keyword density
8. Keyword in H1, H2 and H3
9. Keyword font size
10. Keyword proximity (for 2+ keywords)
11. Keyword phrase order
12. Keyword prominence (how early in page/tag)
13. Keyword in alt text
14. Keyword in links to site pages (anchor text)
15. External links To internal pages- keywords?
16. All internal links valid?
17. Efficient - tree-like structure
18. Intra-site linking
19. Links To external pages (good neighbourhoods)
20. Outgoing link Anchor Text (on topic)
21. Less than 100 links out total
22. Domain Name Class
23. File Size
24. Hyphens in URL

Sorry mate, time is something of a luxury at the moment, besides, i'm not an seo expert. I know a fair amount, but i don't think anyone can claim to be an expert as it is such a moving target...
