1.3 Search engines
When it comes to search engines and copy protection there should be
no compromise. If you want your pages to be searchable, then do NOT
bother trying to copy protect them. In fact your copy protected web
pages should not even be directly accessible from the internet.
Web site downloaders and Image grabbers
Web site downloaders and Image grabbers perform much the same as a
search engine. They locate all other pages by following the hyperlinks
on pages leading to them.
Search engine friendliness
Contrary to what we may be led to believe, search engines will include
your web pages in their indexing whether you submit your web site
or not. And they will spider pages that are not directly connected
to the Internet. How they get those page locations is by tracking
your web browser activity... you only need to visit a page privately
for it to be included in most search listings.
That is what privacy on the Internet has come to thanks to the perversion
of entities like Google. So if you have web pages that you want to
keep private or confidential, then you need to leave no stone unturned
in maintaining their security.
Interim indexes
Copy protected pages should detect direct and offsite links and redirect
back to a common index page. By checking that a visitor has in fact
arrived at the copy protected page via the menu can be done in different
ways and some examples of the code
to use is here.
