SEO Chapter 3 Dynamic Page Optimization


Dynamic page optimization:

Unlike a normal HTML website, where the content of static pages doesn't change unless you code the changes into your HTML file: open the file, edit the content, save the file, and upload back the server. A dynamic web page is a template that displays specific information in response to queries. The database is connected to the web site and the response is generated through the connected database. These sites are easy to update for webmaster since they’re directly connected to a database where one change reflects all pages. The problem with dynamic sites started when content rich sites failed to rank higher in search engines. The problem lies in its advantage itself. As studied earlier, dynamic pages execute on query.

Users send queries through search engines or they are already coded into a link on the page. But a search engine spider doesn't know how to use your search function - or what questions to ask. Dynamic scripts often need certain information before they can return the page content: cookie data, session id, or a query string being some of the common requirements. Spiders usually stop indexing a dynamic site because they can't answer the question.
