    What kind of opinions do you want? Scrolling marquees are way outdated.

    Guess, you didn't look at the page?

    Check out what they did with the marquee.

    Gotcha, I didn't let it scroll far enough the first time ;)

    It's just one more way to attempt to stuff keywords onto a page

    This is absolutely keyword stuffing... I hope you aren't considering a similar technique.

    Oh, I know what they are trying to do; just wondering what folks thought about it as a technique.

    Figured it to be stuffing, but thought it was a somewhat new approach.

    It looks so shitty also. You can tell their target demographic isn't webmasters ;)

    I actually first noticed it on a page that had it going so fast you couldn't read it and the text was quite small. I just hope they didn't pay someone for that bit of "SEO expertise" and weren't told it was a good idea.

    Wow, that is crazy. That has to one of the biggest spam tactics that I have seen on a site in a long time.

    I cant wait to see how long her #1 ranking for needle felter on Google is going to last ;) Google will get even.
