Descriptions of your business

Abbreviations: If you use any acronyms or abreviations, please include the words these stand for in (parentheses). They will not appear in your text, but will be converted to a hidden code that will display the words if the mouse is held over it. Try it here: TATWISF.

First paragraph
This first paragraph also appears in the HTML code as the 'description' of your page, so some search engines value the words in it higher than other words.
You may 'cut and paste' the text from another program/document, but please, only one paragraph per box below.

Second paragraph

Third paragraph

Keywords, separated by commas:
Some search engines use these to index your page. Some search engines will not see "stemmed" words (parts of a word), so use  both plural and singular versions of words you think someone might search on (e.g. a bike shop might use: bikes, bike, bicycles, bicycle in its keyword list). Don't use too many words or search engines will give them less value.
