A method for determining the value of a given page or pages in aggregate to a search engine based on key-word search results and optionally modifying the outbound results to optimize the value and layout of the page or pages. A listening system is inserted within the network for the purpose of listening to both inbound to and outbound traffic from the web server and optionally modifying outbound responses. The device uses an algorithm to decide the relative value of the page as it is traversed. The system also detects web server errors, scanning depth of the search engine and makes recommendations based on the examined traffic and desired results. Human visitors are distinguished from search engines by looking at the HTTP headers and therefore search engine depth and effectiveness in page scanning can be calculated. |
