Hi, does anyone know how to let the public search engine (google, yahoo, etc) finding the zope site? As I remember using the html pages, we need to add some meta tag into each pages to specify our search criteria. How about Zope which use DTML? regards, Herianto
Hi, Searchenginges don't require you to put meta_tags in your header in order to find you. Due to a lot of people stuffing their metatags with all kinds of keywords, most searchengines have even begun to ignore them Anyway, you can put your metatags in standard_html_header.

Hi, I have problem putting the meta tag in DTML pages as the meta tag will be shown on my page. Is there any solution?

hi, put the meta-tags into your standard_html_header: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title><dtml-var title_or_id></title> <meta name="description" content="Here goes your description."> <meta name="keywords" content="Keyword1,Keyword2"> </head> then visit the search-engines, enter your url in the submit-a-url-form and wait for the spiders crawling your site [some weeks to month]. and that's all you can do without money. cheers, maik -- Maik Jablonski __o www.zfl.uni-bielefeld.de _ \<_ Deutsche Zope User Group Bielefeld, Germany (_)/(_) www.dzug.org

Hi, This is really not Zope related. How to integrate meta tags in your html is an html question, search engine optimalization is part art part science. Have a look at searchenginewatch.com or similar to get started or get somebody to do it for you. Douwe
herianto, the only possible problem is with one search engine (can't remember the name, something about a lighthouse) which says they will only index pages with certain extensions, such as .html, .htm etc etc. Otherwise, there is nothing special you have to do but submit - and wait ;p (after all, all that DTML and stuff doesn't show up on the html page, only html) regards, george donnelly http://zettai.net/ zettai: zope hosting and dynamic websites

thanks George, you are right!. There are a lot of search engine that are only looking for static pages (this is what my friend mentioned to me). So, in order to let the search engine find the content of his website, he developed an engine to create static page for each of his dynamic page. He has an interesting and high rating website: http://www.pervan.de/ As Zope doesn't provide html extension, I was only wondering whether there is such solution. regards, Herianto ----- Original Message ----- From: "george donnelly" <george@zettai.net> To: "HT" <htan@gmx.de>; <zope@zope.org> Sent: Friday, August 16, 2002 8:57 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] register Zope Site on search engine

the search engine doesn't know the difference between a static and dynamic page. it sees the same thing. the only difference might be if there are a lot of variables getting passed in the URL. you can name your zope pages whatever you want, something.html, nantoka.asp. basically the only one you can't control is index_html and i understand that that requirement will change soon. regards, george donnelly http://zettai.net/ zettai: zope hosting and dynamic websites

One possible way would be to express every "page" as a Folder+index_html. This gives URLs that end in /, which is also the case for index.html in static websites, ... Andreas
