Hello Masters, just for the sake of knowledgge and updating myself, is it possible for oneself to make use of the keyword loaded content at the top of the page for the sake of spiders to get the crawl at first instance, also the content which i am using at the top of the page doesn't want to be visible, an html tag which would avoid spamming, and as well under google guidelines would do

any help on this issue would be much appreciated,
thanks in advance,
Iftekhar.

Placing content as high as possible is a good idea; keyword stuffing isn't--but perhaps that was not what you meant. If you want to hide ot from the robot, use the CSS attribute "display: none". I don't believe robots read CSS. Hiding content by making the font appear very small or in the same color as the background using HTML is spamming and you risk being penalized for that.

But if you're going to use CSS anyway, you don't have to hide anything. Using absolute positioning, you can put whatever text you like right below the <body> tag and have people see it displayed in a column or down on the page...
