Fixing my table based on Dbcc Showcontig results

Can someone please help me interpret this result set below and suggest
on way I can speed up my table? What changes should I make?

Thank you.You should take a look at ttp://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/maintain/ss2kidbp.mspx. Let us know if you have any questions after reading this. Keep in mind that it's quite possible that given your server workload, index defragmentation isn't at all necessary.

Thanks,

At first glance, the output seems fine - there is very little fragmentation,
and the scan density is high. If you're having performance issues with this
table, you may want to give some more information. In particular, the CREATE
TABLE and CREATE INDEX statements, plus a query which is performing badly,
and the reason why you believe this table is the problem (eg. the execution
plan for the query).
