aRTy-nz discovered 17 months ago- Recently I asked a question in SU Google group and got no answer yet. This page addresses the matter I raised which is the problem of dynamic URLs in blogs and search engine traffic. Here is my original question: "This is probably not just specific to google but any search engine. It is about the problems of a blog having its pages being dynamically addressed and unstable and so search engines may send things to the wrong places. I used B2Evoluition for my blogs, and will use my blog as it it right now (but it will change) as an example. People normally look at the blog through the original link such as http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a (I have 2 other blogs, change the "a" to a "b" or a "c" for the others). That is all very well, but after I add a few more posts the original contents are no longer on that page but on a continuation page with a different URL like http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a?blog=2&page=1&paged=2 which is also unstable. Instead I really want google and other search engines to index original articles by the permanent link such as http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a/2007/03/18/a_cool_solar_mystery_solved for the present first article or at least http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a/2007/03/18/ which will go to the right day. OK I finally got to the question ... what if anything can I do to tell search engines how to index my blog properly? Or is it just necessary to accept that they lag a bit behind? Looking at the stats log, some of the keyword searches from google do come through to URLs like http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a?cat=20 which is at least the right subject and so changes less often. Others however come through to http://ray.tomes.biz/b2/index.php/a even though the article is long gone from that page. Is there some definitive material on this because it must be a common problem with blogs and search engines? The only time the search engine should use the main link to the blog is when it is for material that is there on all pages such as the description of the blog and the links on the side bar."
