After trying to get this working, I've determined I'm having trouble getting
cocoon indexed properly outside of the Lucene example. Eventually I need to
have Cocoon indexed by Google, Inktomi etc. Yesterday someone posted a reply
showing that something served by Cocoon can be indexed by Google. But how
does one get this setup? I've looked at the Wiki and other documents without
success. If I can't get indexing to work, management will force me away from
Cocoon to a Microsoft ASP based solution, which I would prefer to avoid. Any
and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

If there is something that prevents your sites to be indexed by Google, this is certainly not due to Cocoon. Try the following two searches:


<http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awww.cbim.it+%2Bwww.cbim.it>
<http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awww.beblogging.com+%2Bwww.beblogging.com>

Google will report that it has indexed 331 pages from the first site and 521 from the second. Both are *entirely* generated by Cocoon: the former statically, the latter dynamically.

And if you're asking "how", well, there's no "how". It's just HTML, as far as Google is concerned. If you want to be indexed by Google, there's only one way to do it: get a link to your site onto one or more pages that are already indexed by Google and make sure that the link text is relevant. The higher the number of links and the higher the "Page Rank" (TM) of the pages they're on, the better.

Can't speak for Inktomi or other SE's, but I bet there's not much difference.
