Make Your Dynamic Data crawlable
Tue, 27 Mar 2007 14:28:28 by Hannah Parker

This is a quick HTML one.

If you are creating a form in a webpage which has the action of going off to another page and potentially querying a server side database, there are 2 form methods you might use. These methods are "Get" and "Post".

The "Get" method encodes the form data into the URL and the "Post" method puts the form data into the message body.

If you want a search engine to be able to crawl your data - the easiest thing to do is to use the "get" method which encodes the query parameters into a URL string which you handle yourself via the receiving server side page.

The second step is to make sure you create links to these dynamic URLs within your static pages.
