Search engines and a database based site
How can I get a site that has practically no HTML code to be registered and optimized in search engines? I am planning to build a PHP/MySql based site, where the pages will be created on the fly by PHP scripts.

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.
So you are using HTML.Arve wrote:scottayy wrote: What I'm thinking of, is to have blocks of HTML code in database tables and have php scripts retrieve them and put them together, along with data from a database.
The HTML will be served to the search engine, just as it is served to the browser. No difference.

Remember that PHP is a server side processing language/engine. That means that everything PHP does happens before the markup hits the browser (for the most part). So a PHP site looks like an ASP site looks like a ColdFusion site looks like a static HTML site when it comes to the browser and the search bots.
