I see that you've thought about this a lot, but I don't get it. Searching for "perl" at google.com yields what I consider the most relevant links on the front page, including a link to Perlmonks. A search for "perl tutorials" puts the Tutorials section of this site right at the top. Google does not seem to have much trouble crawling all over us, despite our URLs.

How many other keywords would we want to associate Perl sites with? The "related" feature on google is nifty, but I'm not interested in spending any time trying to sort through its inner workings just to get "php" off the list of related searches. It's not my business if people want to look at PHP after looking at Perl. They'll find a good language eventually.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
