Penalized for URL?

@dtm32236Jul 09.2008

Why isn’t there an SEO topic on this forum?

Anyway, do you think I could/will get penalized for keyword stuffing for this URL:
~~[url]~~http://www.foremostgroups.com/home_furniture/patio_furniture/veranda_classics/patio_furniture.html[/url]

The repetition of the word ‘furniture’ wasn’t my intention, but i just realized it…

Should I try to change this?

Thanks for any input…

@Declan1991Jul 09.2008 — #I don't think you need all the furniture in the img alts, but other than that, I don't see you getting penalized. If you don't have furniture in the image descriptions, you don't need it in the alts, but I'd leave it in the titles.

And a quick note, your header is in an a tag, with CSS providing the image. I'd use this instead.

<i>
 </i>[color=red]&lt;h1&gt;[/color]
 &lt;a id="header" href="" title="Title"&gt;
 Text alternative
 &lt;/a&gt;
 &lt;/h1&gt;

<i>
 </i>#header {
 text-indent:-1000em;
 }

@dtm32236authorJul 09.2008 — #Good point about the image alt tags, i'll prob change them to something else, like "veranda patio set" or something of the sort.

Let me make sure I understand where you're going with this - In your example, the H1 tag would contain the image with CSS?

I realize that I can use a variety of different tags for this, but I've been told to use H tags in the header - as they should be used for the main topic of each page.

@Declan1991Jul 09.2008 — #Well I normally have the company name in the h1. And I'd put the image as a background to the a. Then with no CSS, the text alternative will be displayed, and search engines will know it's a header.

@dtm32236authorJul 09.2008 — #oh - I see what you're doing here... cool stuff. maybe i'll check that way out.

Thanks a lot, Declan.
