Indexing portal content by external search engine

Hi All,
I have a question about how to enable external search engine to index portal content.
as I searched in sap help [Indexing Portal Content|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/46/9d1405fa743ef0e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm]
To enable public search engines, such as Google, to index portal content, provide the search engine with the following URL:
irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.utilities.tools.portalspider.SpiderWebInterface?
How should I provide this above url to external search engine?
Many thanks for all reply.
Cheers,
Kanok-on K.
P.S. We use the default KM.

Best way to index portal content

Hi all,
I am searching for a nice way to index the content of the portal.
Using the standard functionality (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/46/9d1405fa743ef0e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm) does not lead to sufficient results, since all roles which are located in PCD are indexed and are found by the enduser.
This could lead to the situation that the enduser might open a page which leads to an error or a blank page.
The other possibility is to use the PCD roles search (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/b2/d59a4271c80a31e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm). This only offers results of roles which are assigned to the user.
However, content of iViews (e.g. URL iViews) are not indexed and so the user can only search for the ID / description of the page (which is okay, but content search is also important).
Is there no other possibility to search for portal content?
Thanks for any hints...
Best Regards

Hi,
it seems that the current ways of indexing portal content are not really sufficient... I hope that there are better solutions in the future...

Making Flash Content Visible to Search Engines

When I was using Flash CS4, it published a HTML file that showed the text content of the movie, which made it easy for search engines to index the site. However, in Flash CS5.5, I notice it doesn't appear to do that anymore.
What do I do (step-by-step) to make my movie content visible to search engines?
Thanks!!

Create all the text content in HTML first.... then use swfobject for Flash detection to display the Flash if the visitor has Flash, regular HTML text if not.
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
For reiew:
If you think that Flash is somehow bad for SEO, it's time to dispell that MYTH!
If fact, in some circumstances I'll use Flash INSTEAD of just HTML because then I'll have better SEO than with just HTML alone.
http://www.worldbarefootcenter.com/
The link to World Barefoot Center in the above post is just one example. View the source code and you see a couple paragraphs of text along with regular HTML links.... but what displays is the Flash version of the image and Flash links.
The client provided the artwork for the page... and that's what they wanted to use a .jpg image. Well yes, that could be done in HTML but it would be virtually invisible to Google. So Instead I converted the image into a Flash .swf and used swfobject to display the Flash. swfobject allows you to create alternate content inside the <div> which also holds the Flash .swf, then when the page is loaded it detects if the browser has the Flash pluggin. If it does, it displays just the Flash content, if not, it displays the alternate content. Since almost everyone has the Flash pluggin, for most people the Flash version of the <div> will display.
The alternate content for that <div> can be any regular HTML text, images, media player, links, etc., anything that you would use if you were not using the Flash. Now the best part is that the alternate content can be "over the top" as far as optimizing for SEO, since it will not be seen by most viewers.
Here's another example of SEO with Flash.. again, the page is just a single image provided by the client:
http://www.ksowetsuits.com/
View the source code. The alt content is paragraph after paragraph of information about the site, including lists and links. If it was just the HTML, it might be kind of a boring Home page. But for SEO I can go "over the top" in promoting the site, since most viewers will never see that part... but it's all indexed by search engines. The end result is BETTER SEO using Flash than just HTML.
On another Web site, a Flash video is displayed, the alt content is the complete text narration of the video. Now how many people would take the time to read that if they could just watch the video instead?? again, better SEO with Flash than without. In fact in one case we had first page search result from that video narration within 4 hours of posting the page.
On still another site with a Flash video, the alt content is another video, but a .mov version, which will, in effect play Flash video on the iPhone (not possible you say??). Well since the iPhone does not have Flash pluggin, it simply displays the .mov version of the video, while everyione else sees the Flash version.
So anyway, if Flash is a part of your Web development, you should look into using swfobject and alternate content.

Portal Page Dynamic URLS & Search Engines

Hi,
I have created a portal site. These portal pages urls are created dynamically.
How can I optimize this dynamic (and long) URL for a search engine?
I am having trouble getting them spidered and ranked in major search engines.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Despite many posts on this issue, I am skeptical that there
is a problem
with search engines indexing pages with query strings. I have
a number
of pages with URLs like showdetail.cfm?articleID=25 and they
are always
indexed by Google and other search engines.
It is my understanding it largely depends on how you link to
the detail
pages. If you have direct anchors to the detail pages Google
will index
them. If you use a form or something else, Google is much
less likely
to follow.
For example:
<a href="showdetail.cfm?articleID=25">The best red ball
ever</a>

<form action="showdetail.cfm" method="get">
<select name="articleID">
<option value="25">The best red ball
ever<option>
<option value="26">The best green ball
ever<option>
<option value="27">The best blue ball
ever<option>
</select>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>

This makes some sense, because how can a robot complete a
form even if
it could determine it is for navigation.

Can a search engine read the contents of a Library file embedded in a page?

Can a search engine read the contents of a Library file
embedded in a page? Or would SSI be the way to go. I'm creating a
large library of text-based information and links, and I want to
have much of it modular so I can add a link and all the many pages
on my site updates to reflect the change. A big concern is that
when a search engine visits my site, can it read the content
embedded in the library item, or is SSI a better method to help the
search engine read my content?
Thanks

Yes, search engines can read Dreamweaver library items. The
library only exists on your own hard drive. Once you add the
library item to your pages it's in there as regular HTML.
If you have more than 20 pages on your site, they say SSI is
better, because when you update you only update the SSI. If you
stick with library items each page has to be uploaded every time
the library is updated.

Headings follow relevant chapter names? Index link to pdf search engine?

I´m new to Pages 09 and haven´t found how to have the page heading contain only the relevant chapter name. I´ve got 8 chapters and want the relevant name at the top of each page, as one usually finds. How is it done?
Can one automatically link the alphabetical word index to the internal pdf search engine when exported as pdf file or does one have to do this by hand?
Thanks for any help in these matters
Neil

Cut your document in sections.
Insert your chapters in different sections.
Doing that you will be able to use the chapter name in the corresponding header.
In page 58 of the User Guide (English version) we may read:
*Changing Headers and Footers in a Section*
You can change headers and footers to be unique to a section. You can also change headers and footers within a section.
To change headers and footers:
1 Place the insertion point in the section.
2 Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Layout button, and then click Section.
3 Deselect “Use previous headers and footers.”
4 Type the new header or footer in the header or footer area of your document.

Search engine optimization in dreamwaever

I'm pretty new to web site building and dreamweaver. I took
over a fitness competition site for a friend. Whenever I do a
google search for the contest nothing shows up. How can I improve
that? It doesn't have to be first, just somewhere in the search.
Thank you

"Whenever I do a google search for the contest nothing shows
up. How can I
improve that?"
The site is almost 100% images and therefore there is nothing
for Google to
index.
In other words, search engines see the site but they don't
see anything in
it because they cannot read or index images.
The first thing to do is change text in images to body text.
That is, text
content where you now have images. As a general rule, if it's
a word, phrase
or paragraph, type it in. Don't make it into an image.
e.g.
http://npcsacshow.com/event%20info.html
is one big JPG image. Ditch the
image and type the text in then format it with CSS. This will
make the page
visible to Search engines.

Searching in another search engine

Hello all,
i have a question, which probally sounds harder than it is
but i think it should be rather simple.
could any one help me out on this?
my Q:
I have made an HTML page, in this page i would like to have
an search option.
What i need is that when some one types a keyword to search,
it actually takes the keyword and searches it in an external search
engine, lets say like google. then a new window will open with the
search result.
as far as i know this will require a script and all it has to
do is to take the keyword and add it to a URL. e.g
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=keyword

External Search (Google) shows information from SDN

Hi,
Why is SDN not a closed database so that external search engin will not find names and information put on the site?
I wish it would/could be protected from external search engin, and be available only to search for users that "log into" SDN.
Kind Regards,
Doron.

I second that. At least the business card details should be hidden for not logged on users.

Portal Search Not Working - Only Returns Portal Content, Not TREX Indexes

I have configured two indexes using the portal. One is for documents that reside on the portal, and the other one is for a website that we have configured in TREX using Cruiser. The TREX Admin console shows that the website information has been indexed. However, when I search on a word in Portal, only the portal contents are displayed. Is there a different search field for looking up TREX/indexed files? I'm using the search field that's on the front page of the portal. Also, both indexes belong to the same index group. I did use the serach feature built-in to TREX Admin to verify that there were documents stored in the index.

Can the contents of a Spry Widget (accordion panel, etc.) be indexed by search engines?

I have an equipment list that I want to include on a webpage. It's so long in straight HTML, even with CSS turning things into columns that it seems to be a good candidate for a Spry Panel. But I need to be sure that it will be indexed, because people who are looking for a machine shop often look for a specific piece of equipment and the contents need to be searchable. (Otherwise, I'd just create a PDF from the original InDesign doc and put it out there that way.
Thanks.

Hi and welcome -
I have a number of sites with accordion type scripts and find Google has no problem indexing hidden content and returning results ranked by it.

Sun One Search Engine Integration with the Fatwire Content Server

Hello everyone,
I am presently using Fatwire(Divine) Content Server. I have uploaded certain documents using Fatwire flex attributes(metadata). I want to use portal search engine for implementing Full Text Search of uploaded documents. how can i map metadata(attribute) of fatwire/divine content server with the portal server search engine metadata.
I hope someone might have tried it earlier while integrating content server with the portal. please give me some suggestions in this regard.
thanku
jenni

Hi,
I don't know about the metadata mapping,
but you can definitely index the FatWire local
data directory with the search engine.
Just specify "file:///.../<fatwiredir>" as starting point for your search robot.
Cheers,
Alex :-)
