hi folks,

one of my websites has been visited by google bot and google has started to list pages.

some of the pages are listed in a quite weird way.

when I type in site:****.com, I see all my listed pages and the weird ones are like:

www.***.com/folder/file.php?n=100
Similar Pages

While some pages are like:
## Title
## Description and some other text
## Url - Cache - Similar Pages

What is the reason of this difference?
May be google is first adding url and then spidering the pages and add other information after some time.

:) I appreciate your help and wish you a nice day! :)

I don't think so because most of the pages are listed properly, only the pages of the script I have written has this problem.

problem with your site , not with google.

some problem with your script and design.

I am suspicious about the <title> tags.

They are located in the body part. However, my other website is using the same script and the title tags are located in the body part as well, and the pages are listed without any problem.

What would you suggest me to do?

This is definitely a problem with your site and not with google.
This kind of behaviour can occur if pages are not coded correctly (and particularly, if there is no character encoding set in the headers).

I recommend that you use the W3C validators to check your site and that you have a close look at whether the code is written as it should be.

A page may be spidered and its url saved before the content has been indexed. Such a page will generally not be seen in normal queries, but will be listed in a "site:" search.
