Revision as of 11:26, 30 September 2009

This page contains informations about the appearance of eSciDoc Solutions in search engines.

---- Work in progress ----

General[edit]

Most search engines display the search results in form of a list, containing:

  • The Headline of a page
  • A short summary/ snippet of the pages content (ca. 200 characters)
  • The URL of the page

Following information should give an short overview in which search engines we can influence the appearance of eSciDoc solutions search hits.

Search Engine Specific[edit]

Google[edit]

One can register its content at google via a webmasters tool. For this one has to agree the 'Google Terms of Service' which we are very probably not willing to do. But we can influence the display of our data in the search result list.

  • Headline is retrieved from the title tag of the html page
  • Snippet is retrieved (among others) from the description tag of a html page
We are anyway creating site-maps to submit to Google, does not that mean that we would have to use the webmasters tool to submit them first time?--Natasa 14:40, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
