I may be wrong, but my understanding is that even if you used the original text version of the page (not an image map), a page with essentially no keyword content is not going to give a search engine enough information.

It appears that you are at least approximately right:

Though I wish Google gave more information. But it appears that though meta tags count a little, a page that is mostly empty will have a low ranking.

I don't see what we can do other than choose between a simple, language-independent layout, and a high ranking for the front page.

Perhaps we can hope that the second-level language-specific pages will have a good ranking even if the theoretical front page does not. I would be cool with that result.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Daniel.
