Michele Emmi, I've never used Struts, or anything which could be abbreviated to MVC. Despite this, your question did strike a chord with me. I think what you're asking is this:
How do search engines handle dynamic content, where the content changes based on the query-string? Example: /blah.jsp?animal=frog /blah.jsp?animal=cat These pages will appear to be the same page to most search engines, even though their content might be dramatically different. So, what do you do if you want both of these pages to be individually indexed by search engines? The answer is simple, albeit a hack. There are two parts: 1.) Switch to "pure" servlets and never use query strings. This would mean changing those two urls to look something like this instead: /blah/animal/frog.html /blah/animal/cat.html Servlets can support this. Even though those URLs look static, you can make it so they're actually dynamic. Go to "http://globeandmail.com";, a Canadian newspaper, and click on any article. You'll notice the Globe & Mail is basically doing this with their URLs: no query strings. The URLs are somewhat insane looking (obviously dynamic), but they fool the search engines into thinking they are static. 2.) Create a "site map", and have every page on your site link to the "site map". Submit your "site map" to the search engines. I hope this is what you meant. yours, Julius Davies, Programmer, CUCBC Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], Ph: 604.730.6385 > -----Original Message----- > From: Michele Emmi [mailto:micheleemmi@;hotmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2002 2:40 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Search engines and MVC > > > I was wondering how search engines handle multi-view-controller > architecture? > > Thanks, > Michele > > > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Internet access plans that fit your lifestyle -- join MSN. > http://resourcecenter.msn.com/access/plans/default.asp > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > <mailto:tomcat-user-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> > For additional commands, e-mail: > <mailto:tomcat-user-help@;jakarta.apache.org> > > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
