Do Search engines index include pages.

Hi,

I have used <php require > function in my website.
I wanted to know whether google and other search engines crawl and index the included code/pages.

Example- If 2.php is included in 1.php. 2.php has 10 links. Then when 1.php is crawled, will these 10 links also be crawled?

I hope I am making myself clear. Thank you!

Go to that page, then go to View --> (Page) Source.

Search engines will see the same code.

Thanks kravvitz,

Another query.
One of my sites is on the first page in yahoo and msn. but not on google in the top 3-4 pages. i am confused as to why this is happening.

does anybody have an idea.

Thanks,

Google uses a different algorithm, so sites don't always show up in the same order on other search engines.

i do also believe that it takes a while for your site to show up in google results.
i have the exact same thing happening, but my site is only up since 2 or 3 month - page rank 1

i am confident that with increasing quality links to it and time progressing this will be changing though

Thanks for ur replies.

I read at a site, that google does not consider meta keywords. Is this true!

They say google has about 100 criterion on site ranking. where can i find some info about those.

also one more thing. Is having more than 100-200 links on one page more harmful than beneficial.

I'm not sure about the google criteria, but here are some thoughts;

include meta tags;
despite the fact that there is less and less importance on these as time goes on, they should still be included. The description tag is what people will be reading if and when your link pops up in a google search. For the few minutes it takes to write them it's worth it.

the linking issue;
there are SO many variables when building links. I'll just touch on a couple;
i.)keep 'em relevant; don't just post every single link you can find on your page, or have them pointing at you.
ii.)build links slowly; if google sees you gather a hundred links in one day, you are likely going to be penalized, as it seems suspicious. link building should be done gradually.
iii.) watch where your links are coming from; there are spam sites, doorway pages, and all kinds of junky sites out there that you should avoid linking to...if google suspects you of being involved in linking 'schemes', you'll be penalized.

content;
keep your content fresh and concise; think about it from a users point of view...does it help them accomplish their goal? don't just cram keywords, or scrape content from other sites.

SEO seems to be a fine balance...link building will help get traffic to your site, but without meaningful, quality content, the traffic won't stay very long.

this is just touching on the surface of SEO...seochat has some good resources worthy of a read.

Best of luck!

thanks!
