I was only kidding about the decade-long wait.  It doesn't take long to get
noticed if you generate lots of content and lots of links.

Others have done that for a while.  Google is onto that and they actually
degrade sitres that get caught doing it.  Their software is sophisticated
enough to spot it pretty quickly.

Not really.  Even having two similar sites like mine is risky with Google.  If
you create a bunch they'll spot it and might ignore your sites completely.

That's the word on the street.  Meta tags are still useful in controlling how
your site appears in search returns though, so do them right.

The problem is people keep coming up with new ways to trick the search engines
into giving their sites better placement.  Google, in turn, keeps coming up
with ways to defeat them.  The game will never end.  Your best bet is to
generate lots of relevant content, *lots* of pages and keep changing things
regularly.
