New site in php

[equens]

Hello, I want to add php pages to a new site. 90% of code is html and I compose all pages by includes:

First...---------------------------- (functions.php)

<?php
function Header()
{
?>

Hello Free Search Engine Discussion Forums !!!
<?
}


After...------------------------------ (welcome.php)

<? require "../functions.php";
Header();
some html code
Menu();
some html code
Footer();
?>

All my url kyper links are simple like welcome.php and products.php. Can consider sear engines my pages like html pages or there is a problem?

Thanks!!!

You should have no problem with a .php extension, if that is what you are asking. Most of my sites done with .php and have had no problem getting indexed.

If you are planning on including the links within php programming, which may be what you have laid out here, I doubt the SE's can or will follow them. You need to think about including text links on the page somewhere as well so the SE's can follow them.

A site map is always a good idea; if you want to minimize the text links on the page, then link to a site map so the SE can find the rest of your site.

Welcome to the Forum!

Ok , and all my links will be single names (no programing characters).

Thanks again and see you later ...
