Running around in circles I see. As long as I avoid clients who are
morons like you Vamps I don't think I should have any difficulties.
Thus far no client of mine has given a rats ass about search engines,
nor should they.

What's the matter, Google Bitch, can't formulate a counter argument?
Here's a random thought, why don't you try and post a link to
something that shows "advertising" through Google is "effective"...and
I don't mean just some blow hard like you spouting off a bunch of
shit, I mean REAL statistics that prove through web logs that search
engines matter. I'd be willing to bet that I can generate more
traffic for a site through just ONE Usenet post than a top ranked
Google site can over the course of a day.

Isn't it great how Vampi Cramps just like...posts some random link to
something and then goes around pretending that it has some hidden
meaning.

Let's just go ahead and end your stupidity on this link right off the
bat:

:Make a site with a clear hierarchy and text links. Every page should
:be reachable from at least one static text link.

Okay, not doing that.

:Offer a site map to your users with links that point to the important
:parts of your site. If the site map is larger than 100 or so links,
:you may want to break the site map into separate pages.

Okay, not doing that.

:Create a useful, information-rich site, and write pages that clearly
:and accurately describe your content.

Okay, not describing my content.

:Think about the words users would type to find your pages, and make
:sure that your site actually includes those words within it.

Only in the page title.

:Try to use text instead of images to display important names, content,
:or links. The Google crawler doesn't recognize text contained in
:images.

No, not doing that either.

:Make sure that your TITLE and ALT tags are descriptive and accurate.

I have no alt tags.

:Check for broken links and correct HTML.

It is fully NOT W3C compliant.

:If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e., the URL contains a "?"
:character), be aware that not every search engine spider crawls
:dynamic pages as well as static pages. It helps to keep the parameters
:short and the number of them few.

It's using dynamic pages controlled via Javascript so not even search
engine spiders can crawl them.

:Keep the links on a given page to a reasonable number (fewer than 100).

I've got about a dozen.

Okay Vampicramps, taking ALL that into account...how does your DUMBASS
account for this:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Hatter+blog

Ranked number 1, Bitch. What the fuck are you trippin on? Yeesh, yer
so fuckin stupid that if Google had a page telling you to go and shove
a weed whacker up yer dried up old cunt and give it a whirl you'd
actually be dumb enough to go ahead and do it.

I'm not as linear as you, Stupid. Speaking of short memories, it's a
lil odd for you to be saying you support the use of Flash but then you
turn right around and start bitching about search engine
"optimization". Like I asked you before, what the fuck are you on?
