| PostNuke or Nuke sites and the major search engines.
Most people wonder what it takes to get a "nuke" site ranked
higher in the search engines. I have the answer! S.E.O or Search
Engine Optimazation! There are several steps you can take with
your PN site to achieve a good seo! I will show two here.
First and fore most is the use of ShortURL's. Google and Yahoo
both will read the familar /? or ?/modules so common in a nuke
site. What they get stuck on is the also common session id
number that is also in the URL. The ShortURL feature in PostNuke
750 is a thing of beauty! All you have to do is enable it and
you are one step closer to being good spider food!
Now the next and just as important! After you have ShortURL's
enabled you MUST generate a SITE MAP of your site! A great place
to go to do this online is XML
Sitemaps. Spiders and crawlers just devour them! With
ShortURL's running there is more of a chance all the relevant
content on your site will be in the map! I encourage all Nukers
and those running HTML sites to use site maps! You might just be
surprized how much of your site will now be indexed on the
engines!
For a more detailed summary of this issue for you Nukers visit
