Of course I will keep all the references, and even if I'd like to split it in different episodes (in order to fit into my page style and length) every episode will be referenced and completed with your biography. You can find here my first episode http://www.duechiacchiere.it/889 Please let me know if this is fine for you. Have a pleasant day.

Listen very carefully to your client - they know their industry and its target audience far better than you. Then use this knowledge as the foundations on which to build your findability strategy.

Content is KING! If it is relevant to what you're audience is searching for, findability should not be a problem. I also agree with Stuart in that your site should be built to W3C Web Standards specs. Furthermore, I personally like to omit as much formatting from the HTML/XHTML as possible. Thus frees the eye of clutter and allows greater control over styling via the style sheet. Let the document display as it should. Control the design elsewhere via CSS etc. Content.
