Spiders will only "read" what is on the page it hits which only includes the frameset definition.

If you want to get an idea of the spiders will see I suggest either downloading the Lynx browser: http://www.vordweb.co.uk/standards/download_lynx.htm)

or use the "Lynx View" link on the following site: http://www.vordweb.co.uk/standards/download_lynx.htm

The answer for that is this:

Why do search engines hate framed websites?
Quote:
The main reasons why most framed websites fail to get indexed properly on the major search engines that use crawlers such as Google. When we look at the HTML code of a common framed web site, we usually see the TITLE tag, the META tags, and then a FRAMESET tag. The major search engine's crawlers and spiders such as Google Bot and Freshbot are all programmed to completely ignore certain HTML code and instead are directed to specifically focus on indexing the actual body text on a particular page.

But with any typical framed website, there is just no body text for the search engine's crawler to begin with, simply because the text is located on the other pages of the site, what we call the inner pages.

I recommend you avoid using frames.

Try CSS.
