Re: search engine optimization question



Don't.

What you're proposing (serving different content to search engines) is
called "cloaking". Not only does it annoy users when they discover that the
search terms they are looking for don't exist on your page, but it is also
liable to get your site blacklisted by Google. (See their guidelines at
<http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html#quality>.)
I want to put some terms on the other page that are related to my site. I won't and I'm not interested to get people not being involved by the content of my site.

Are you using graphics to display text in your pages? Don't do that either.
