I've a site, which was designed without having in mind search engine issues (bad idea, I know). It uses a lot of images as links, very few text, etc.
Given that I'm not the original developer, I just tryied to add as much ALT as I could, but google results didn't improve at all.
So, I'm thinking in placing a div where I could add a comprehensive list of words retated to the site in, but hidding it (the text inside the div) in order to not breaking the design layout.
I would "hide" the text just by setting "color" attrib as the same as "background", and setting "font-size" as 1px.
what do you think of that?
Please, consider my attempt as a fix rather than a desirable way to do a site...

If you do so and Google detect that, you will be banned from Google. It maybe helps to improve your Page Rank, but how long ?So, I'm thinking in placing a div where I could add a comprehensive list of words retated to the site in, but hidding it (the text inside the div) in order to not breaking the design layout.
The easiest way to optimise your Page Rank is:
- Have many Content Sites
- Valid XHTML 1.0 / CSS 2.0
- Many popular Pages which are linking at you Site ( very useful!!!!)
- Don't use tricks!
- table can have an summary attribute, to descripte the Table Content,
can be very useful
