Im doing a site for a nightclub. So im doing a hybrid.

If you can't talk the guy out of it then try and get him to at least allow
the USER to start the music. If not that then I would suggest teh next
course is a flash player but at half volume and make SURE that the START and
STOP button is easy to find.
I wouldn't use a frameset for anything.

Hi Kev - Because I am on dial-up
I will throw my 2 cents in and say that nothing is more annoying than going to
a web site and suddenly being bombarded with loud music you don't want to hear.
In face, I got an add-in for Firefox so that I could safely use MySpace
without a cacophony of noises playing without my control.
hi,
i think if i cold sell him on a player that would be user controlled.
I will tell him he can put in more tracks by his dj's.
Sorry i meant to change the title of the post.
thanks a million.

Hi all,
We have had some complaints that this SEO, fact or fiction thread is
off-topic.
We have left it alone till now as the list has been surprisingly (spookily)
quite for the last week. However, the thread has now gone on long enough.
Hello Everyone,
Thanks a bomb for all your thoughts! You've been most helpful.
In future I'll be more careful with keeping any queries more obviously
standards-centric.
Thanks again,
Dannielle

I believe you got it somewhat wrong.
The basic purpose of a robots.txt file is to tell a search engine what
not to index - and you can issue different instructions to each robot
separately. It does not tell the robots which pages to index, except for
the basic tenet that anything not

That seems incredibly arbitrary when a robots.txt is purely optional -
especially as the default spider behavior is to index all unless told
otherwise. So you're penalizing people by having your robot behave in the
opposite manner? And regarding PICS labels, most people don't know how to
set them
Nice to hear again about PICS. I use to label all my websites, but I've
ofter wondered if I'm the last one using this (and P3P...).

Okay then. What is an example of an accessible robots.txt file? Are you also
talking about the site map link you see on large web sites?

Hi Michael,
I take the perspective that a site built to web standards provides a
framework for content which doesn't have any 'points' deducted from
it. SEO in my experience is divided up into the main sections
1) inbound links and references
2) linking structure
3) page build quality
4)

Hello Michael,
Accessibility is far more important to SEO than most standards, affecting
SEO directly, that is. Think of Googlebot as a blind user and you can see
why I mention accessibility.

Charging by the page or per hour (as I do it) is more legitimate. Some
projects you can't really charge by the page though. I have one client
who's site has 600,000 pages or more.
