Hi there. You have to excuse me but I'm totally new at this.

 

I always thought search engines can only crawl through static HTML pages.

OsCommerce, on the other hand, stores the product desctiptions in a database.

How will a Google ever find my products based on their description?

 

Is there something I don't understand here?

I fear I might create a shop customers will never find unless they directly enter the URL.

 

Thanks in advance for your "lesson #1 in eCommerce".

 

Regards

All I can say is that they are all over my site.

spiders can crawl through dyanmic pages with no problem, providing you do not allow them to start sessions (there's a feature in the admin panel for this)

 

do a search for your desired keyword, you'll likely notice many of the top sites are NOT html; but are dynamic.. something like index.php?product=blabla
