RE: Getting Found With Script Generated Pages

Response summary is:

1. Hard to get listed in search engines these days just from text in your
pages.
2. Getting linked from sites your target audience frequents may be better
use of your time.
3. May be that webcrawlers do check out links like "../cgi-bin/greatpage.pl".
4. May be that "?" in link to the script stops webcrawler checking it out.
5. Nice to have posts that are in line with the theme of the mailing list.
6. What, are you doing a survey or something!

On point 5 I guess I was thinking if someone came up with:
###############################
If you put the words:
meta name="keywords" value="Bill Clinton, NASA, Princess Di, Shares, Sex"
[actual words more appropriate to your content] on a seperate line inside
standard comment tags for your scripting language, web crawlers will
usually index them.
###############################
then that would be technique.
