I know that the information on the a dynamic site changes and is pulled from a database, but if I were to go to a site now, how would I be able to know this? To over come dynamic sites doorway pages need to be created correct? Can anyone show me how to create a doorway page? Are redirects used on dynamic sites? I know, such a newbie question but I can't seem to get this down.

| >>To over come dynamic sites doorway pages need to be created correct? More precisely static pages must be created. For an accurate description of a doorway page feel free to use the glossary in the top menu. A good place to get informations on how to create good pages here. [webmasterworld.com...] Redirection can be dangerous.

Notice things like content change from day-to-day or any display differences between browsers? Lastly, little known is the difference in HTTP headers from dynamic to static pages. SE's can also spot that. You can determine if a page is dynamic most of the time just from the headers alone.
