Well, if you're concerned a title attribute may be considered spam..., I
think you can't be serious.

Are we all now starting to suffer SE spam paranoia? Are the W3C HTML
specs now being rewritten by Google?

A tiny bit of text written in background color - deadly! CSS attributes
"overflow:hidden; display:none; text-size:1px; " - outlawed! TITLE or ALT
attributes of more than three words - evil!

As I said, you can't be serious. As long there is no obvious, blatant
spam attempt (like the 1200 hidden spam words on www_rob-james_com),
valid HTML should is just that: valid.

It's all about appearing natural. I use a little bit title attributes
sometimes but I restrain it to be exactly the short keyphrase used in it's
anchor text.

The point that Bill raised earlier "I don't believe that any of the major
engines evaluate those
attributes." is, I think, accurate but I would add that the major search
engines certainly are aware of the content within the attribute. So if you
are going to use this attribute, use it lightly and in a fashion that
appears natural; not as an attempt to get some keyphrases stuffed in there.
