I think what you are saying is that if the user agent is a bot then you just serve them up a specific content page instead of the home page. which does have some advantages, until you hit a bot that doesn't register as a bot. If the client can afford it, it defiantly is a consideration.
Again, I was saying what I did in reference to Wills site, I didn't even go into the rest of the pages and putting dynamic content into the titles and such...... ---------------------------------------- From: "Bryan Stevenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 6:19 PM To: CF-Talk <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Search engine question Not sure who that wa aimed at Scott...but if you were referring to my user agent suggestion: > This concerns me the most, you can trick the bots until you have a > total monopoly on keywords.
