You're barking up the wrong tree here. GWT is for writing AJAX/RIA/whatever-you-want-to-call-them applications. It makes the obnoxious JS bits tolerable. JS applications are inherently unfriendly to search engines. You can overcome that (as Ian has done) but it isn't going to be as simple as tossing an HTML file on some random web server and having it indexed.
