Since Google started, the holy grail of search engine optimisation has been to find a secret way to the top.
It used to be easy – fill your page with keywords, add a meta keywords tag (ha ha!) and get as many incoming links as possible.
Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam… (a little Monty Python fun via YouTube).

Some say Google are trying to kill SEO and I suppose they are, but that’s not really a bad thing.
