The site didn't validate because we weren't serving it to the validator. This has been corrected, and you can see it now.

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lilyobriens.ie%2F&chars et=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1& outline=1&No200=1&verbose=1

And the site is very well search engine optimized. We know what we're doing here. That's why all of our sites rank high.

And the site IS hosted in Dublin, not the UK.
Hi Russ

With all due respect, you were serving an error message with a 200 response code to GoogleBot.

If that's what you consider good SEO you should be ashamed of yourself.

Hi Russ,

Seeing as you are answering queries, there was one little query I had about the site...

As a matter of interest, how are people to navigate the site if they have Javascript disabled?

------------------------------
JavaScript Statistics


There are no absolute trends about the use of JavaScript. Some users have scripting turned off. Some browsers don't support scripting:
2007 January
JavaScript On
94%
JavaScript Off
6%
-------------------------------

6% of customers is a lot to ignore?


Oh and by the way -

As I'm not some Goldenspiders asshole masquerading as a judge with web expertise, I tend to be a lot more cynical when it comes to cloaked sites and SEO. I noticed that you've broken all the site links from Google.com's cache. Way to go! Ever heard of 30n redirects? And as for the lack of metadata and poor use of title space on the home page - do you really know about SEO?

Regards...jmcc
