Comment on WordPress Hacks by Héctor.
I was wondering whether you (or somebody reading the comment), could please give me some ideas with two challenges I’m dealing with:
(1) What’s the best way to publish tables of data?
I have a website, about lists of related words (let’s say I’m publishing tables with several data classified by topic), when I want to publish a post, I create a table which is 7 or 8 columns width. I use Excel, but when I paste it on WordPress (the columns lose their width and are not in the correct format), so I have to re-size them within the post area, etc, etc (it’s a lot of work). My workaround has been using the same table in Excel, but then I create an image, and I post the image (too much work though).
(2) The second thing has to do with SEO and the impact when publishing these many tables of related-data (but not keyword-wise data) on my blog. Let’s say my keyword is “pink cars”, but in my post there is a brief comment introducing the “pink cars” information that I’m going to present (5 lines max), then the rest of the post will be only statistical data about “pink cars” that will be useful for my readers. What’s the best why to handle it and still keep good seo practices? The workaround I’m thinking is also about using images with the alt tag, names using my keyword. Any ideas?
Thanks

thanks for your feedback:
Nigel’s suggestion it’s easier, my concern about it is that I’m sending the readers out of my blog, which I don’t want to. I’d prefer keeping them on my blog.
