Problems with dynamic generated
web sites
Web Sites with Dynamic created pages block web crawlers. They could
stop search engines from indexing your content and hence could greatly
reduce your potential traffic.
Typically such pages have a question mark (?) in the URL (or not).
When a search engine crawler arrives at such a page, it captures
the content but halts immediately, and will not follow the links,
because it sees ahead of it an infinite number of pages -- a black
hole that would bring it to a crash.
When indexing deep inside, when they encounter a question mark sign
(?), which is the most obvious element in a database driven page,
they just stop indexing and will not continue. There are fixes to
replace the question mark. But this makes your dyamic page appear
to have its own sub-directory, so the browser will look for images
and links there. You can use absolute URL addresses, but that will
make maintenance difficult.
Even after you make these changes, there will still be time-outs
(search engines time-out quickly), and the code is usually poorly
written for the search engine spiders. The pages are usually all
one template, making it difficult to add keywords and to modify
each page for keyword frequency.
If you create a static doorway page with a no follow tag, you will
be hard pressed to get your website listed with the same ranking
as other websites with hundreds of static pages and optimized code.
The best solution is to find a shopping cart that has static
pages but still gives users the flexibility to browse your store
and make multiple purchases with the click of a button.
Here What Other SEO Experts say:
In the Static vs dynamic debate ,
Google
is just a tiny part of the bigger issue .
“ 1. Reasons your site may not be included.
Your pages are dynamically generated . We are
able to index dynamically generated pages. However, because our
web crawler can easily overwhelm and crash sites serving
dynamic content , we limit the amount
of dynamic pages we index.” (goggle)
Static URLs:
- Encourage people to link to you.
We pretty much know that people are less likely
to link to a dynamic page by a wide margin. No one trusts dynamic
urls to remain the same (the url is ui)
- Allow proxy caches to cache you.
Many proxies will not cache dynamic urls. Thus, you reduce bandwidth
to what is essentially static content anyway.
- Allow browsers to keep static caches.
Same is true for browsers.
- Slows down rogue bots .
If you have any sort of session id in your dynamic strings, you
know rogue bots can spend hours upon hours toying with the urls.
They can beat your site to death trying to dl it.
I still think that
it is wise to switch your dynamic to static any where and
every where you can. A static url site will always work better for
all concerned than a dynamic url based site - including Google.
