Default again and again: google indexing of a dynamic website - 07-10-2003 , 03:59 AM






Hi All

Surely tons of people have asked this question.

I'm looking for a solution, Google does not index all of my site www.dhs.dk,
probable due to the dynamic nature of the site. Some site do however suceed.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem of mine?


BTW: Anyone know a good newsgroup to discuss Webtrends ??

Cheers
j

Maybe caused by the javascript menu

converting seems a huge job, I run a BroadVision site, and even BroadVision
mentions this (their) problem.

it seems strange that google doesnt do this, but thats a fact, shame

the javascript menues shouldnt be the cause.

could I point google to my sitemap somehow, could that change anything?

cheers

It looks like the javascript doesn't generate the links, it just
hides/shows a div containing the links. So they should be crawable.
You should think about trying to convert your urls to look like
regular, non-dynamic urls.
One method, if you're using apache is to turn your query string into
something like looks like a regular path through directories like:
domain.com/file/var1/val1/var2/val2 ..
Here's an article on how to do it:

You can also use something like mod_rewrite, which I've never used but
believe may be more complicated.(?)

Anyways I've heard people say that once they've converted their urls
google really indexed a lot more of their pages.

hth,
