Hi Guys, I am going to build a site such that all the content will be in database(may be SQL), will google search the whole database just like any other website??? waiting for reply........ Thanks in advance..... AnkammaRao
er... WordPress, MT, all store their content on the database. They also have a front end which pulls info from the database, and displays it. Why don't you do the same?
Hi ... does google actually search the contents of a data base? Holy cow! If I have 10,000 entries, in a data base, does that mean google finds 10,000 pages? I was under the impression the data base was a single google entry. Can someone please clarity? Thanks.
Hi dude, I don't know how wordpress is storing the data. But i will store all the contents and retrieve some portion of it based on the page number. So what ever i retrieve form database will be taken by google for searching???
No, my dears, Google doesn't read people's database. GoogleBot is a HTTP crawlbot. Your SQL Servers are usually not connected via HTTP. Even if its so, its usually password protected (you know, like PHPMyAdmin). Its invasion of privacy to read databases. And lord knows how many dumb companies out there actually share their internal SQL Server with their HTTP server.
If the info is displayed in your website and the pages containing the "database info" have links to them, than yes, it will get crawled. Many, many CMS scripts use databases to store messages. Even this site is storing messages in a database and it gets crawled and listed.
Hehe.. I guess you want to ask if google indexes dynamic websites Yes, google does. Almost every complex website stores data in database, and google does index them. All the data in this digitalpoint forum is in mysqldb and google does index most of it! Quite simple, right? But that doesnt mean that google is going to index all the pages in your dynamic site. Also dont expect google to submit a search form and index result pages .. LOL Howmuch google index depends on the importance of your site, the quality of content, your internal linking structure, external links, your update frequency and so on.
