I've mostly lurked on this list for more than three years but had this niggling issue going round in my mind.
As I understand it, best search engine results are obtained by placing content nearest the top of page code - matching key words in h1, alt, title tags and first sentence of content is of crucial importance. Conventional mark-up and layout results in the typical HTML page format of Header / Columns / Footer format for "natural" page flow. My question is this: is it more search engine friendly to use a mark-up format of Columns / Header / Footer and use CSS position:absolute to place Header above Columns and Footer? If so, what are the pitfalls, if any? TIA for response.
