Directory crawling

[bcyber]

I need to know if google and yahoo crawl through this free directory scripts links. They look like http://www.domain.com/directory/index.php?c=3

I assume you are talking about the biz-directory script.
Yes, G,MSN&Y crawl these links, but it's far better to use a mod_rewrite module so your dynamic links turn into static links. They'll index/crawl much better.
You can use this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+).php$ index.php?c=$1& [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)add.php$ add_url.php?c=$1& [L]

put this into .htaccess, then change the links in your php

$category_url = $dir.'index.php?c='.$parent_categories[$x]["id"];

into this:

$category_url = $dir.$parent_categories[$x]["id"].'.php';

or check this forum http://mod-rewrite.com/forum/thread45.html

Alright thanks man, hopefully I'll get that to work.

if not, just pm!

I will concur, mod_rewrite is well worth the effort. While dynamic links like the one you mention will probably get indexed, static urls get crawled and indexed much quicker and easier than a dynamic one.

I want to know, does anyone actually buy your penis enlargement products? Because a bunch of our clients seem to be rubbing it on their whole body.

Here I'll post your site again http://www.biggerblog.com

Don't think it will help though... lol

I don't care about those sites in my sig and I just removed them.


















Moron.

And, I'm not gonna spend my time with blogs at this point. To much blog and referral spamming competition that I don't want to get into.
