CMS System building site that can't (yet) be indexed

anybody there who can help

[Onza]

My client would like to work with a content management system that uses Cold Fusion. All the content is called by an index.cfm page and a pretty long string:

mydomain.com/index.cfm?uuid=B7DE77163923488DB81A71EAC9BC5CAF

Now this string is automatically generated when you hit the root of the domain.

Googlebot and Co. don't seem to get to the Homepage at all, because it only lists mydomain.com without any string.

Does anybody know of a solution for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't really know much about Cold Fusion yet. Thanks!

If the site is hosted on Apache, do a site search for mod_rewrite. This enables you to rewrite the URLs in a bot-friendly way.

Maybe you can get them to switch to something else. I had good success using moveabletype for a non-profit client. I removed the code I didn't need, then made it fill up the main content area with whatever the folks wanted to put in there. Works like a charm.

Thanks for your input martinibuster. My client has already kind of made his decision. So I am really looking for a solution on how to make the site more spider friendly.

Sinner_G, the site is hosted on NT, so I don't think it is something we can do.

Anything else know anything?
