Push2HTMLTM Publishing gives you the ability to publish your dynamic site in traditional static HTML.
Search engines are creatures of habit, and typically they don't like to index sites that are produced dynamically by a scripting language or database sites.
Delivery speed of pages are also a concern, especially on high-traffic sites.
Static HTML pages typically end in .htm or .html. They are generally created by a human on a desktop computer and uploaded to the server.
A database page is a page that the server creates “on demand” with select information from a database. You can sometimes recognize these by the use of non-standard characters in the URL, such as an ampersand (&) or a question mark (?), the lack of the .html or .htm file extension, and sometimes file extensions such as .asp or .php.
iControl WebStudio is the only solution on the market today providing you with the best of both worlds with such a robust set of tools! With One-Click publishing, you can go control all your content dynamically while serving super fast static pages to your surfers and search engine spiders.
