Hi,
Do you guys how search engines like cookies? One site I'm working on
now requires the user to select which region he/she is from on the
start page. That value is stored in a cookie. So without cookies you
can't get past the start page. Does this leave the search engines at
the start page? Right now google only index the start pages on my
site and I'm trying to figure out why.
If I can't use cookies, how would you force users to select a region
but letting the search engine spiders in on the site somehow?
Hope this wasn't too off topic.
Kind Regards Emil
Emil:
My advice -- give the SE what it's looking for. Place a description
of what your site is about on the start page. If you don't want users
to see it, then place the text off-left via css position. This would
also help those with assistive technologies and thus SE's shouldn't
complain.
Cheers,
tedd
