Hey,

This program Is great !!!!! Does the Webinator Index Hidden Fields in
html pages ? I want to attach hidden fields to certain pages so they
will absolutley be first in a certain keyword searches.

Best regards,

The Webinator currently indexes only user-visible text, so <INPUT
TYPE=hidden> tags will be ignored (they are often data and not relevant
text anyway). However, a future release of the Webinator may index
<META> tags, eg. for keywords.

Only that which is visible to the user is indexed by the Webinator.

If you wish to have a page preferred above another page with the
same rank value, index it first.

Thanks for the compliments.

Sorry for the dumb Questions but How Do I index certain pages first ?

For Example, If I want to pull up all pages related "memory" How do I
call the Page On our site That relates directly to this search ?

We sell Apple computers so I would want the following to happen:

Search Word Title of Page (Within the <title></title> tags)
"memory" "Memory, Vram, Simms, Dimms"

"PowerMac" "PowerMac Prices" (Within the <title></title> tags)

Thanks for all the help,

Best regards,

That is the Answer I was looking for. I already set our Meta Tags for
the Search Engines we are posted at. Please inform me as soon as this
version is available. You guys aren't marketing your product well
enough. You should be in to Netscape, Microsoft, Oracle, Sybase,
Informix as a $99.00 Suite tool add on, You can Generate big Cash
quickly with a PR program that targets small to Mid size sites. SEARCH
ENGINES LIKE THE BIG BOYS !!!! I have not seen your RDBMS product but I
have buddies that work at Oracle and you guys better have some deep
pockets, they are spending a fortune to push their DB as a net standard,
(Even if maybe your product is superior, I don't know) I sure would
like to get my hands upon your database program to see all the
differences. I am sorry to say that with limited Budgets, we are not in
a position to pay the prices you require.

P.S. Maybe it's better that you don't tell everyone, there is enough
competition in my Business.

That's kind of self explanatory. Some variation of the following:
gw -wipe
gw firsturl
gw secondurl
...
gw -index
