		<description><![CDATA[You must be careful with this technique. Redirection can be very useful, but at the same time if done improperly can ruin a page ranking. The safest way to redirect to another web page is using a server side 301 redirect in the htaccess file. Depending on the search engine, the results will be evaluated [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I hate automatic pop up pages but the search engines seem to ignore them. I do not see any indication that Javascript initiated auto pop up web pages are flagged by the search engine spiders, so I feel it may not impact a website rankings. More than anything else most visitors hate them.&#160; That fact [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past, doorway pages were heavily used to help web site rankings, but the search engines have gotten more complicated and those web pages are not supposed to work any further. Doorway pages are designed to have text intensive content with unusually high keyword content and links back to a web site. Usually doorway [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Too many images and not enough text will never get a web site found. You must have text on the web page for the search engines to digest. Images offer nothing for the search engine spiders to read. Although the use of image alt tags are recommended for all images, the alt tag does not [...]]]></description>
