Never seen any comments before on white-space affecting the outcome.

Never seen or read about the length of line being important. 1032
characters? I have seen that some search engines read only the first NNN
lines, or some number of kilobytes, but line length was not mentioned.

Perhaps not using tables would help. Placing the content in good
SEO-friendly linear order and using <div>s to position via CSS is even
better. On your page:
<http://www.rezultz-web-site-promotion.com/steps-search-engine-optimization/frames-tables.htm>
you mention only frames and tables. A CSS layout has even less HTML for
the search engine to sift through; you should consider adding this
method to the above page.

You're welcome. We try our best.
