Proof readers and Publishers - opinions!

[TheEnigma]

This was inspired by a post on another forum, but still I thought I would share it with you peeps here aswell, as it is quite a useful topic, plus I wanted to write a book, and wanna see if people can actually read what I type as I have a really disorganised mind - what I read as OK is normally backwards to everyone else!

So if you could have a read of:
http://www.swirly.net/pdf/chaptertest.pdf
225k download - 9 pages.

And give me some feedback - id be grateful

I got errors on all the pages and wasn't able to view them.

Couple of points......


1)
To the best of my knowledge, none of the big search engines have used Meta Keywords as part of their indexing system for years, in fact Google has never used Meta Keywords as part of their indexing.

2)
I'm surprised that you didn't even mention the importance of good content, thats what get good results because it leads to:

3)
Links to your site. Google's PageRank algorithm is very much based on the number of links to your site which makes a huge differnce to your position in Google results.
(as its only part 1 of many I assume that these would feature in later chapters though)

4)
Off topic but the "Portfolio" link on swirly.net doesn't work
