Re: UKNM: Search Engine Optimisation vendors wanted

[Sam Carrington]

James,

Using NS 4.74 on a PC (therefore the most up to date NS browser

available) your site was inaccessible. I would suggest using

cross-browser DHTML in your page - or not using DHTML at all ;-)


As far as search engine optimisation goes, you could insert an alt tag

for the main body text on your front page (which I was allowed to see

using IE 5.5 on a PC) or use text rather than an image for this element.

This would be a start. I guess you werent asking in relation to your own

corporate site, but every little bit helps ;-)


If your userAgent detection script on the front page disallows surfers

based on their user agent string, it is very unlikely your site will be

indexed at all - all spiders have a unique User-Agent string and will be

bounced to your 'upgrade' page. I am not going to give away all our

indexing strategies in one email though, so I'll stop there before Aidan

gives me a foot whipping...
