Declare the character encoding you use in the META "Content-Type" tag of every page. However, from then on you’ll have to follow the character set you’ve chosen. Failing to do so may damage your ranking since the page will be considered technically flawed.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! A problem with my site has been bugging me for weeks and I just saw this posting. I was trying to figure out how auto-generating some keyword-rich content pages and adding them to my site could have hurt it’s ranking. I’m using a product that generates the pages into a template but they look good enough and the HTML looked relatively clean to me. Sure enough, I just checked it and the content type info is different. At least now I know what to fix.
