>>><title> accurately reflects the content of your page, making sure that the header is marked as a header, i.e. <h1>, making sure that your images have alt text describing the images<<<

If only it were that easy, if google is attempting to stop "spammers" thru esmeralda et-al they are not making a good job of it.

The original posters message in all sincerity.. is naive beyond extreme.

A good spammer will always beat a good "optimizer", maybe short-term, but that is their aim, short term goals, and another site/s the following month.

I have no doubt whatsoever that spammy sites will win, I have had it with google, call me a can't beat em join em member, so what!
It is far cheaper to create a spammy site than try to "go by the rules" and still end up page #50

You know creating a full no messing about full **** spam site is dead easy, sure it won't last long....will it?
