Hi-

I remember reading somewhere that it is best not to temporarily use a filler page on a new website. That you should throw up the whole site at once or nothing at all- something about search engines. Can you tell me if that's correct, will it ruin how your site is searched in the future?

Thanks-

I don't know of any penalties associated with a filler page, except that Google does not like orphans. I suspect it jsut will not rank well until you get your inbound links and additional site pages.
