Dynamic directory & search engines...
Hi

Does anyone know the status of the dynamic loinks directory with the major search engines (Google, Altavista..)?

Do they spider it and do they spider all of it or quite at a certain level?

I know for a fact that Google spiders it, but I'm not sure about the others...

Hi,

I know everyone says Google spiders dynamic URL's, but I tell you, the amount of traffic we get from google has gone up 200x since we installed the search engine friendly templates for this forum, and we had a huge amount of traffic from googlebot (Google's spider) and scooter (Altavista's spider) after we added the static url's for the forums.

Not sure what other users experiences are though.

Cheers,

Alex
