    As long as you have static URLs - that is of no difference to search engines

    Your software that is written in PHP or whatever should be able to write the static html pages. If something is written in PHP does not mean that the site will be php.

    Develope an engine to create the static html pages.

    take vbulletin for example

    all pages are dynamic and installing vbseo turns them into static so search engines can see
    example

    blahblah.com/dead/crappy.php to blahblah.com/dead/crappy/

    i think its easier for crawlers to pick up

    Thanks for info, i'm newbie i have a little more question pls advise.

    Does directory name will be a keyword ?
    If i name my directory as LCD/HDTV/Samsung/LN52.html is this good for SEO?

    if compare
    LCD/HDTV/Samsung/LN52.html

    and

    showproduct.php?id=5555 (this title page is Samsung LCD HDTV 52 Inch)

    Above is much better ?

    This is much better than the id string attached to the url.

    What ASP, PHP or any other language does is generate the HTML to be rendered by the browser. With some programming languages there are some additional codes that increase the page size, other then that I don't think HTML gives any significant advantage as per SEO.

    The only difference between PHP, ASP, JSP, and HTML is how the end product is created...and the end product is always HTML. So the short story is there is no difference.

    Here's the long story. If you make an HTML page you go type the HTML directly into the source page. PHP, ASP, and JSP are programming languages that give you more flexibility in creating the HTML but in the end they simply spew HTML as their final product. So as far as the search engines are concerned there is no difference because all it gets from the HTTP request is HTML.
