Hi,
if a dynamic page is for 100+ products specifications and its optimized for search engine..

so does it get indexed as 100+ pages or just 1 single page?

I assume 100+ but i wana make sure plus if some1 can provide some details.

Thanks a lot in advance

A dynamic page of mine for 300+ products is currently being indexed as 300+ unique pages... and they are. Each product produces a page with a unique title, description, keywords and content. There's no way the SE's can actually index the one dynamic page that produces these pages.
Actually, I guess there is a way, but it's not the intent.

Well, I keep an eye on the logs so I know what the SEs are requesting. And I check the SERPs so I know that those product pages are appearing. And going back to the logs I see what my visitors are requesting in their searches.

In theory the SE's will index each of your pages. The reasons they might not would include things like duplicate content, badly formed URL's, too many parameters or session ids in the URL.. the usual stuff. FWIW, each of those dynamic pages appears as a static html page. Parameters are passed to produce the page, but I strip those parameters out via htaccess and display my-dynamic-page.html to the world, with each page having a unique name.
