Dynamic Pages
Do search engines such as google penalise dynamic pages?
Dynamic pages are used to deliver content from a database to
websites ? the advantage being that data can be updated and
the contents of pages changed without the need to reload pages
etc.
Google publishes guidance notes on its site at http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html
These say that dynamic pages are indexed but that the Googlebot
( Google's spider ) can overwhelm dynamic sites and therefore
the amount of pages indexed are limited
Google recommends:- "If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e.
the URL contains a '?' character) be aware that not every
search engine spider crawls dynamic pages as well as static
pages. It helps to keep the parameters short and the number
of them small.
How to get dynamic pages indexed
There are ways to get dynamic pages indexed, if the site
is relatively small, then create a site map, which has static
links to each of the dynamic pages. This gives the search
engines a "doorway" to the dynamic pages.
For larger sites there are a number of ways to change the
syntax of a dynamic URL so that it appears to be static: http://www.discountdomainsuk.com/glossary.php?lang=english&gid=28
can be re-written as http://www.discountdomainsuk.com/glossary/english/28.
Index pages If your index page is dynamical generated then
it will be particularly difficult for search engines to index
your site. If possible you should avoid dynamically generated
index pages
Algorithms
The search engines and Google in particular are getting better
at indexing dynamic pages.
