Submit dynamically generated pages?

[John Sabella]

My site has grown to the point that have several hundred product pages, so I have switched from building static pages one at a time to a database driven site with dynamic page generation. Search engines used to crawl my site and find all of the individual product pages, so that searching for a particular title was easy. Will they still spider my dynamic pages and/or is submitting the url for each dynamically driven page going to be of any benefit?

Thank you in advance for any input you can provide.

SUbmitting won't help.

All search engines have some degree of trouble crawling dynamic URLs, especially is there is more than 2 parameters.

If you are talking about the site in your profile, I would put up a site map off the home page with links to all the dynamic pages.

Hi,
btw you have a great looking site..

From what I have read there are still a lot of search engines that don't pick up the dynamic urls, although I think the big ones do..

If it's a lot of work I would hold off, I suspect that more and more search engines will come around and pick them up as their technologies progress.

your site is great - I'm originally from Seattle and am now in Denver, CO - I miss the rain!!
