It is hard to see why finding out something is hard if you already know it. On one page that came up on a reasonable search request, there were some smurfs with red in them! I think red hats or boots, I forget! Anyway, you can see in all of this, the importance, when making informative web pages, to have informative headings and text that can be picked up in grabs by search engines. You can be very informative in a long piece on something without it being search engine friendly. I guess that writing with search engines in mind is not exactly a skill easily learned and I am sure we can all imagine hilariously clumsy attempts to learn this skill! <g> -- dorayme --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
