Hey, Dave... Since I'm working on SEO with my clients, but don't do Flash, would you like to share that "lil flash swf" with me to use, or is that something you prefer to keep "in-house"?
Getting good index page content without blowing away the visitor with "word overload" has always been a challenge. One thing I do a lot of is have the client use "Announcements" on the index page. That way, keywords and phrases can be repeated often in the announcement titles and text, but because the repetition is under separate announcements, the reader's "information sensibilities" aren't offended. The reader can scan the Announcement Titles and decide whether to read the Announcement or not, but the spider eats it all... I let the client add business-relevant announcements and part of my service is to keep an eye on them and keep them optimized with keywords and phrases that need to be repeated frequently...

Also use your image alts to give more info about the content because the engines will pick that up as page content. You also have enough java on there to run NASA ;) Content is king and you don't have any there so I'd start to figure out a way to get it there. One thing I used to do is make the index page and just fill it with content and then under that have a lil flash swf that redirects depending on if they have flash or not. And what that does is the engine bots will spyder the pages content and since the redirection is within the swf the bots won't pick up the redirect and penalize you. So when a visitor comes to the page it immiediately redirects them to a diff page and they never see the "real" index page thats been formated for content only. www.denveralumnaegpb.org has that. Basically it's a win win, without really cheating :) ---------------------------------------- From: Will Tomlinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 11:25 PM To: CF-Talk <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Search engine question > What's the url wilbergini? abracadabra! www.winstoncourtsports.com > I haven't read this yet but i threw it up 4 ya, http://www.jamwerx. > com/HowGoogleWorks.swf Preeesh!
