Hi I'm in the process of designing a large ASP website for a company. Most of the site is built dynamically from the database.

Now for my question, do you think it would be worth spending the time in creating dynamic keywords that are already in the database? This would mean if somebody looks at one product the keywords would reflect that product, but if another product would be viewed other keywords would be enbedded in the content strip.

Sumary: Is it worth creating dynaic keywords using ASP, or will Google, and others ignore and even have a problem with it?

Thanks for any thoughts on this subject.

hey Richard, to be honest I've never used ASP before but if it anything like PHP then the URL will be unique for each product right? And as far as my tiny knowledge of google goes they do spider each url that is on the website which includes each product.
Now as far as PHP goes googlebot indexes each dynamically created page which would include the keywords and description.
And now that I've basically talked around in a circle I'll just say, logically it would make sense to put in the keywords, if not for the sakes of google then just for sakes of following a "standard". And honestly, it shouldn't take very long to put them in anyways.

Thanks for your reply, YES, ASP is more or less the same as PHP. So you mean that even though the basic url is the same, for example: "products.asp?prod=10" and "products.asp?prod=11" the spider will request the page and not the different keywords that are created. and actually then chache the in a sense one page as two?! This is great news, lets me create good and accurate keywords. Also doesnt make me try and cram into one content tag the whole website.
Are there any other thoughts on this topic?

Thanks Richard

yeah it will cache each page.
I don't remember exactly where I read this, but google explained that they do support dynamic web pages such as the ones created by ASP and PHP. There were some others listed as well, but I don't remember.[/url]
