Make them for people who dont have javascript enabled, or using screen-readers etc - ie they are 'accessible' pages. Or they could be suited for printing too. Rarely should you 'design' for search engines - design to please your users. Offering a simple text version of your page, will quite possibly please a (small) number of your users. A user without javascript will need clear navigation between the pages. ... and it just so happens such a site will be easily crawled by a search engine too. design for users, search engines will follow. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

[Google Maps API v3] Search engine (google in this case) optimisation
Can anyone give me some advice (or point me in the right direction) on how to get a map based site correctly indexed ? To be more clear : I am developing a map site which will only display poi information inside classic info-windows or custom info windows. At present, the only way to access the information will be to click on the associated marker. All my data is kept in my own database (no usage of fusion tables or other google service) as this is my "added value"). I know that having pages only visible to search engine robots will severely penalise my site, even black list it. So, what to do? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
