<TD> vs <TH>

    Is there any SEO advantage to using the TH tag for a header row? Or would regular TD with BOLD text work better? Or does it not matter in the least.....

    I don't think anyone has really tested this, but I am sure there is some small advantage to doing so. Heading tags are a good place to put your keywords/phrases, so it would make sense that using <th> for your column headings would give you a little boost for the terms in there as well.

    Thanks Chachi - that's what I was thinking. I know emphasis tags are supposed to give a little boost the the words they enclode, so I figure TH would as well....
