[SOLVED] Dynamic title/meta keyword/descrip. in header

Post by voltrader »

I have a directory site with a search-engine type homepage. This homepage has a general title, meta, and keywords in its header.

When a user searches for, say, japanese restaurants, the search terms are posted to another page for results retrieval. Are there any drawbacks (in terms of SEO) to dynamically changing the meta keyword and description to fit the search terms?

Not sure where to post this... Apologies.

Are these "result" pages permanent links?

No, these results pages are variations one page, search.php, with variables attached.

Ah yes, the page will always be there, but with potentially different information.

Thanks. You just may be... :!:

I posted on quite a few purported webmaster/SEO sites, and got not one response!
