Oracle APEX site unable to be crawled by Google crawlers / SEO?

Gareth RobertsFeb 10 2008 — edited Oct 28 2009
Hi,

Has anyone been able to get their APEX site (static or dynamic) indexed in Google?

Obviously the session_id in the URL is a problem, but setting this to 0 and providing a site map should suffice. However lynx still has a problem with my static site - error "Alert!: Unsupported URL scheme!", I'm trying to find what APEX throws out that causes this and whether the same is a barrier to Google bots indexing APEX sites?

Some niggling observations:
- I do a lot of searching on Oracle related content and very seldom do I get back hits on asktom.oracle.com ... I'd expect more.
- Google "site:www.shellprompt.net services" and the Services page does not get returned...
http://www.shellprompt.net/pls/apex/f?p=112:4
I'd expect that shellprompt would want that page indexed!!

Regards,
Gareth
