Re: Do query strings get spidered by Google?

A better solution - make your pages look like static html pages: Search Engine Friendly PHP Pages http://zend.com/zend/spotlight/searchengine.php Search Engine-Friendly URLs http://www.sitepoint.com/article/485 How can I pass variables to a script in the url like /script/var1/var2? How can I pass variables in a form that won't scare off search engines? http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/124 Apache ForceType Docs http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html#forcetype I even add a ".htm" to the article id and then do a str_replace(). Remember to make sure that you are doing some type of validation of the data that is being passed via the URL. olinux --- Mike Hillyer <m.hillyer@telusplanet.net> wrote: > Hi All; > > I am trying to decide how to lay out a site with a > lot of articles, and I am > wondering if query strings get spidered by Google.
