That's false and she should do larger bits of research. You might
achieve higher relevance by using css-p to move your content closer to
the top of the page than you could have it otherwise, but search engines
just whiz through tables. I've sold search engine optimization services
for several years and know whereof I speak--not about many things, but
about this for sure.
