Just came across a great post on Stylish Design, a blog with some great SEO advice. The post talks about some of the problems that search engines have with dynamic pages, particularly with spidering these pages and traversing the site to get all the content you’ve prepared. It suggests some practical advice to avoid these problems and optimise your SEO on these pages. Here are the highlights:

• Find out if the database program has a built-in way to create static HTML.
• Modify URLs so they don’t look like they’re pointing to dynamic pages.
• Use a URL rewrite trick.
• Find out if the programmer can create static pages from the database.
• You can get your information into Yahoo! using an XML feed.

Some great advice there, but there’s more details down at the site. Check out: SEO friendly website

I must say, this isn’t my first time down on that website and I do like the author’s style. He goes straight to the point and most of his advice has a technical explanation behind it. It’s nice to be given advice from an expert, rather than someone who’s heard suggestions from a third party. Check out the blog while you’re there.
