      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

    You're not ranking a page because it has bold text.

      It's about as useful as your hidden spam link.

    If you bold words, higher up, near and in beginning of article/page,
    beware. You are signalling to google more keywords.

    Probably why a lot of people think their page is one thing,
    then bold idiotic words, get a google flux, scratch their
    heads.

    If you overemphasize words, what's google to think?

    You can sculpt things by using bold in selective places.
    This is a good trick especially if you are using adsense.

    Adsense can be a great tool to analyze what google
    "might" think your page is actually about. Providing you
    are also tweaking adsense ad settings.

    If you were disappointed in your results today, lower your standards tomorrow.
