SEO Tip #8 n/c

I mentioned this before, but it bears repeating -- put an index file in every folder you call images from. the spider will check for one whenver an image is called, and sum whatever is on that page to the impression it has of the image thus far (i.e. anchor text, alt tag, context, etc.). Also, how many times haven't you truncated a URL to see if there was a directory listing there. You all think you have to lock up your shit, and so feel "mission accomplished" when you thwart an invader with one of these:

Quote:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /PIX/ on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
You're rejecting traffic of potential value, and I would always rather send my enemy to the window above the stove where I have left the burners on, than turn him away frustrated at the door --
