Minstrel and your Developer are right. In my case: I have a lot of products and items which are on my site for sale. You can only make "so much" on key words.
Actually this was my question a few weeks back here in this forum. Well, I did do a "dummy page" (as you call it). In this page I concentrated on keywords for -gardening items- ! And it works.
Customers are looking for these items and end up on this "dummy page". There, I am giving the visitos the option to go to this subject or to all the other items I am offering.
I don't think it is considered spaming or cloaking. It's just focusing on items and keywords.
I am working now on different pages advertising different subjects and keywords.
Nothing wrong with that. You don't have to have a hit from your visitors through your home page - only -
