Hi,

Im taking the plunge into dynamic content. Im going to do it as an experiment on a minor site of mine. One thing Id like to do is ensure the pages can be read by spiders. I understand that this can only be done by having good site map with anchor text in the links etc.

However would people have advice on what is the best approach to learn in terms of how the pages are named. Any tips or things to point me in the correct direction would be much appreciated.

Best wishes

Search engines are getting better at reading dynamic content pages, but I would still suggest masking all dynamic pages with .htm. I would also suggest using dashes in your url to separate words. Most search engines will treat a dash as a space.
