GoodRelations - The Web Vocabulary for E-Commerce

This is the archive of the goodrelations dicussion list

GoodRelations is a standardized vocabulary for product, price, and company data that can (1) be embedded into existing static and dynamic Web pages and that (2) can be processed by other computers. This increases the visibility of your products and services in the latest generation of search engines, recommender systems, and other novel applications.

[goodrelations] GoodRelations: Help Search Engines to Crawl Changing Data

Dear all:


Much more than any other type of rich meta-data on the Web, 
GoodRelations-related data is subject to change and updates, e.g.

    * new prices,
    * changes in availability, or
    * new features.

Search engines in the traditional Web crawl your page only once in a 
couple of weeks or so. Usually, the pagerank or other popularity metrics 
are used to decide on which pages to crawl more frequently than others.

Now, it is important that you help the search engines to decide on when 
to crawl your GoodRelations-based Web content again.

There exist three techniques that should be used in parallel. See the 
new Wiki page at

	http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/UpdatingGoodRelationsData

for an overview.

Best
