To clarify the question say I have a website with a home page and 2 additional pages:
(model A)
somepage1.cfm somepage2.cfm
These pages are both linked to from the home page. Now to try a different model, say the above two pages were linked to by:
(model B)
somepage.cfm?page=1 somepage.cfm?page=2
So here the pages are linked to from the home page and distinguished by some URL parameter. Since they are distinguisted by url parameter rather than the page name, is less weight put on it by the SEO? Are the pages distinguished? I suspected that model A & and B were the same, however a collegue suggested that model A would have more weight. Is that correct? As a spider is concerned aren't they just unique urls in boths cases of both models?
Surely with url rewriting browser side spiders can't rely on pagename vs paramter differences, it just finds unique url links?
Please clarify my doubts, thanks =)
