It really is important for clients to think about the focus of each page of their website design before they write the content – or before they discuss it with their content writer or web designer. It’s interesting that you’ve raised the issue about the balance between human readers Vs robots – the priority I would suggest is to target the main headings and initial body text towards the search engines (since to gain customers interest/enquiries from your web design first requires that customers are able to find your website) and this is very closely followed by an aim to make sure that once they have landed on your homepage they are kept interested by vibrant content (images/flash/more engaging text etc.). Thoughts? Content certainly is key.
