I would be very surprised if they did. I have never seen a URL as complicated as that in a SERP.

I try to keep it to one parameter and still I toy with the idea of re-writing it.

I know that PR has an influence on how deep google will go. So as an example I work on part of a site (pr8) that has less parameters than you propose and the links are not indexed.

I would be interested in seeing them if any of the forum members can point to very complex URLS?

Cheers

From a recent experience I've had, I think I'd agree.

I have a url in the form:

mysite.com/page.jsp?parameter=string1+string2+string3+string4..etc

I'm going to try taking the parameters out of the URL and passing them another way, because all of the pages on the site, including other dynamic ones, got crawled by google except these pages.

Thanks Ukgimp.

One more quick question:

Do you mean that you have noticed a dynamic URL with only parameter being spidered?

From my experience most definitely.

It is quite common these days with the likes of Google etc to see pages getting spidered and indexed.

The for that is sucessful to me has been:

page.asp?id=X (where x is a number)

Cheers
