iframe & SEO

[Natko]

Hi,
I hope tjis is a right forum for this questions about iframe SE-optimization.
I use them so I have no body/text which is called within iframe. I thought to include this paragraf of text in this iframe, between iframe tags too like following:

<iframe id="iframe" name="iframe" src="descrizione_krka.html" width=477 height=300 scrolling=no frameborder="0">[snip].
</iframe>

The text is in italian but it doesnt metter, and this is a whole content of the src called above. I should write some text between iframe tags for those noframe agent, but I did it like this becouse of search engines.

Anyone could tell me if it is correct way of optimization?
thank you

<iframe ...bla bla bla...>
<noframe>

</iframe>

Hello Natko. You had it correct when you were placing content between the <iframe></iframe> tags. Are those pages in the <iframe> part of your site? If so, can those pages stand on their own (outside the <iframe>)?

Hi guys,

i'm pretty new to this and was wondering if se spiders are able to spider the scr files in the iframe tag?

cheers

Don't know if they can spider the source code, but if you use an site map, you shouldn't have any problem getting your iframed pages listed.

Yes the pages are part of my site and they are formated to stand whitin their mother pages, altought they are .html.
Are you thinkig something about 'if you cannot see the content click the link'?
But my problem aren't user agents, my problem is SEO; what crawlers are capable to reach. Becouse of this I put the content between <iframe>, but with or without <noframe>?

and about src ... I think the SE can't foolow src, unles the ALT for img href. Is it correct?
