does it matter how i structure my website (xhtml wise) because when ever i use sitescore or another website that shows you how the bot reads your website. it looks like it always reads my left and right column 1st, then does not get to the pages content till the end...... i guess this is bad for seo
What's your website? You can code your site to have your important content first and then have your navigation/sidebars after your main content. It's done on a lot of sites.
