Hi Jens
Actually, using the 'title' attribute in a link does NOT add a little
bit of SEO. Title element ('Page Title') - yes for SEO - but title
attribute - no.
Try it yourself. Put a few words in a title attribute - words which
don't otherwise appear on your page. The once Google has re-indexed
o does index meta keywords.

A. 100% of search engine spiders.

Hi guys,
Just to clarify. Google reads the sourcecode. In the order the
sourcecode is presented. Of course you can reposition with css. That
doesn't change the order of the sourcecode. Google doesn't generally
request the CSS file (check your logs) - unless other flags are
indicated (e.g p

Your new site looks fine to me. My only constructive comment is that
you should rethink your 'ahem' comments - as search engine spiders are
effectively text based browsers.

Just wanted to clarify this area with some references.
Meta keywords - no - no search engine publically acknowdges that they refer to them.
Meta descriptions - yes - see below - but DMoz is often a factor as well
Meta robots - yes - see below

Semantic code is generally rewarded by ranking (i.e. relevance)
Accessible code is generally rewarded by spidering. Valid code is generally rewarded by SE's

However, as Andrew mentioned - the biggest risk of detection is human
detection and reporting. Your competitors are the threat. Whether
Google acts on specific spam reports - that's the risk you can take.
