Reading SEO papers it is pretty much obvious that
- it is hard to fool google, it tries to index the page
the user "sees" it: ie, <title>, <h1> and repetition
in [visible?] text works best
- trying to play google may not be to your benefit

Yeah, I wrote a big rant about this a while ago. I think it's
simple: biggest target are first time users; we need to get them
hooked. What first time users search for (let's say: free music
software // possibly add "notation"), must be prominently visible
on the home page too, otherwise they'll conclude they didn't find
what the were looking for?
