Tag cloud: how made it SEO-friendly was created by effrit

Hi, all

I have a blog (in Russian) about FLEXI and tagcloud module on it.
One day a inspect my site in Google-web-master and in "keywords" zone i take strange list of "most popular world in content":

Code:

1. 	are
100% 	100%
2. 	with 	
100% 	100%
3. 	items 	
77% 	77%
4. 	tagged 	
77% 	77%
5. 	сайт (формы слова: 5) 	
55% 	55%
6. 	FLEXIcontent 	
54% 	54%
7. 	effrit 	
46% 	46%
8. 	Joomla 	
37% 	37%

so on the first place i had a super-keyword "are"... :shock:
the problem is in template of tagcloud ( \modules\mod_flexitagcloud\tmpl\):

Code:

<li><span><?php echo $item->screenreader.' '; ?></span>[url=<?php echo $item->link; ?>" class="tag<?php echo $item->size; ?>]<?php echo $item->name; ?>[/url]</li>

the part of string <span>...</span> on frontend produce hidden text like "1(2,3,4..n) items are tagged with" for any tag!
and google count this any time the cloud appear...
so,
if you don't want this keywords - just replace string:

Code:

<li><span><?php echo $item->name;' '; ?></span>[url=<?php echo $item->link; ?>" class="tag<?php echo $item->size; ?>]<?php echo $item->name; ?>[/url]</li>

or even try to remoove <span>...</span> part.

Hope this help
