The top of your main page should be,(All in CAPS)
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
Also take this out, <!-- #BeginTemplate "/Templates/customer.dwt" -->
<!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->
And I would go like this,Example from mine without my Keywords...
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<TITLE>YOUR TITLE</TITLE>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-
8859-1">
<META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT=
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT=
<META NAME="Author" CONTENT=
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX, FOLLOW">
I've heard the Robots revist is not really used...the spiders
comeback when they want too.
And since Google only updates once a month it could be a while to
get up the ladder. Good Luck with your site.
