I have two clients who use .asp for their sites. Any advice on the SEO approach for .asp? How does it differ from static HTML SEO?

Thanks to all in advance. This is a great forum.

If you are using asp files that do not have query strings fear not. They perform just as well. If you have querystrings then you may have a problem. Which way is it?

I can't find any "?" or anything that would indicate query strings.

No problem then. Treat it like it was html. Google will love them all the same.

And even if you do have query strings, you may be OK. The key is to keep it to one variable and make it short after the "?"

Thanks, it sounds good for one of my clients. When I "view source" in a browser I can see the content. I think that client will be ok.

The other client, here's what I see. ?

<html>
<head>
<title><removed></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<frameset cols="*,760,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize src="left.htm" >
<frame name="mainFrame" src="content.asp">
<frame name="rightFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize src="right.htm">
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
This Page uses Frames but your browser does not support them
</body>
</noframes>
</html>

ASP is a server side language. When you 'view source' you are seeing something that has already been processed. There is a chance something might be going on that you can't see from the client side. You need to see the source file on the server to know for sure. Chances are that they just used asp extensions on the html file, which should not hurt a thing.
