Heres what I got back after doing a quick test on it... Btw, that also
works against the page cause the SE's see it as a form of spamming them,
and will most like give oyu a low score, if you get listed at all.
humm, considering that they are boosting that they are 'internet promoters'
doesn't give me a heck of a lot of confidence in them at all.
Below recommended Marketability level. Follow the recommendations listed

Your page is 65 % efficient!
Listed below are further suggestions for increasing the efficiency of your
page.
Analysis of http://www.exposure-usa.com/lists/primer.html
Analysis
You do not have a meta keyword tag in your document.
Reason
This Tag is used by the search engines to catagories
your web page, without it
the search engines will take the first words from
your page or your description
Tag and use them as your keywords.
Suggestions
Pack in as many relevant keywords in your Meta
Keywords Tag as you can. Use
your space in an efficient way and put the keywords
that are most relevant at the
beginning. Your keywords should match your <Title>
your description Meta Tag
and the Heading on your page. If your Keyword/phrase
is Internet Marketing, add
in your Meta Tag "Hotels Bath,Bath,Hotels,Hotels in
Bath,Hotel Bath,Bath area
Hotels" etc. Don't waste your time with "stop" words,
Stop words are commonly
used words ignored by the search engines.
Analysis
Your keyword is in the wrong position in your <TITLE>
tags. Its too far from the
first word.
Reason
Many search engines use your title tag as the first
means of identifying the
contents of your page.
Suggestions
Move your keywords to the first few positions of your
Title Tag. Make sure
every keyword counts. Add plurals to singulars and
visa versa, add relevant
adjectives and nouns and place primary keywords at
the beginning of your Title.
Think hard about what people will use as a keyword to
search for your site, ask
friends, do searches and test the search results, you
can tell how popular
keywords are by the amount of pages that are returned
to you.
Analysis
Meta description tag does not follow <TITLE> tag.
Reason
On some engines it is important that the Meta
Description Tag follows the Title
tag. This is because the search engine may only
'read' your page once and if it
is looking for the Meta Description Tag, which
appears after the Meta Keyword
and Title Tags, then it is unlikely to go back and
re-read the page again.
Suggestions
It doesn't hurt to put them in this order, so we
advise that you do conform to this
standard.
Analysis
<TITLE> tag does not follow the Head tag.
Reason
On some engines it is important that the Title Tag
follows the Head Tag. This is
because the Search Engine may only 'read' your page
once and if it is looking for
the Title Tag which appears after the Meta Keyword
and Meta Description Tags,
then it is unlikely to go back and re-read the page
again
Suggestions
It doesn't hurt to put them in this order, so we
advise that you do conform to this
standard.
Analysis
You need to add a <H> tag to your document that
contains your keywords.
Reason
Many search engines use this tag to rate your page in
their index, if it exists. If it
doesn't exist, you may be penalised.
Suggestions
Where possible enclose a selection of closely related
keywords in a H1 or
similar tag at the top of the page, just below the
Body Tag. It makes sense that
if the subject of your page is 'Hotels New York';
this should then be the first
keyword the search engine encounters at the top of
the page, with <h> tags
around it.
Analysis
Not really a problem but some engines prefer a
keyword to appear in hte URL!
Reason
This improves the chances of your URL appearing on
some of the Search
Engines.
Suggestions
You may wish to try naming your HTML page after the
keyword, or creating a
directory /keyword/index.html off your main site.
Analysis
Your Meta Keyword Tag contains more than 250 characters.
Reason
Search Engines seldom display more that 250
characters as a summary and
often a lot less.
Suggestions
Make sure your most relevant keywords appear in the
first 250 characters that
you have available. You won't be penalised for going
over the allocated size, but
remember that if you are using more words than
necessary, your keyword
density will decrease.
Results for Spam on http://www.exposure-usa.com/lists/primer.html
Spam
73 of your <font> tags match the background colour of
your page: #ffffff
Reason
This text cannot be seen by the user but will be
picked up by the search engine
etc
Suggestions
Search engines have been wise to this one for a
while. Old hat, don't bother
you'll get penalized, it doesn't matter what the
color is, if the background color is
the same, your on a loser. Repeated keywords is again
an old trick that doesn't
work anymore. Anyway, most people have put these
techniques at the bottom of
a page, most search engines only pick there keyword
information from the first
and maybe from the second paragraph.
