[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Only thirty dollars a month?  Wow, what
a deal!  <snicker> I do the same thing for free.  Anyone want to learn
how to get a few thousand hits every day compliments of search engine
users, feel free to go to http://telecom-digest.org and then read
through the source code, paying close attention to the meta-tags at
the very top of the page.  Those tell you what keywords you want the
search engine to pick up on; how often to come and read the page, etc.
Here is an example from the top of the telecom web site:

<META NAME="description" CONTENT="This page is about telecommunications, telephone companies, related topics.">
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="telco, telecom, telephone, 'phone
company', 'long distance', Bell, Sprint, MCI, Ameritech, Nynex, 'Bell
Atlantic', 'area code', 'cell phone', 'pay phone'">
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="all">
<META NAME="distribution" CONTENT="Global">
<META NAME="rating" CONTENT="General">
<META NAME="revisit after" CONTENT="30days">

There is your lesson. All for one low payment of $29.95. That's not
monthly, that's one only, and it lasts forever.  Your $29.95 will be
gratefully appreciated and carefully used. Remit to Box 50,
Independence, KS 67301. PAT]
