Google has made available a simple tool which provides an interesting insight into what people see when they visit your web pages. You can look in your analytics and see a breakdown of the screen sizes of your visitors (e.g "1024 x 768"), but the size of their browser windows will be substantially smaller than this. They may not be maximised to fill the whole screen, and they'll probably have toolbars and other clutter making the actual view of your site a lot smaller.

Posted by Tom Sykes on Friday, November 13, 2009, In : IMPROVING YOUR WEBSITE 
Much of what is written about search engine optimisation assumes that you're writing a blog, or a news story, or the next great 'how to' article" …but of course it's just as likely that you're writing that all important product page. So how do you make a page full of technical specifications work in the search engines?
