LinkFreeze 2.1 build 0081
License - Shareware
Publisher - Helicon Tech

LinkFreeze is a fast and easy solution to optimize dynamic or database-driven website for search engines. It optimizes dynamic links on your site by substituting all unwanted characters and making links look like static file links. Most of search engines don’t like dynamic content. They usually will not go deep indexing links with parameters, give such files much less pagerank or even refuse to crawl dynamic pages at all. The only difference between static and dynamic content is that links to dynamic files include question mark followed by a list of parameters, If you have online store, forum, or any other dynamically driven application and your site is full of such links it will be very hard to get this content indexed by search engines.

Key Features
Modifying links before server sends response to the client and rewriting URLs back when they go to the server. Users will see optimized links and server applications will not even know about it.
User friendly GUI plus text configuration files to easily configure on a dedicated server and in a shared environment.
Ability to configure how new URLs will look by setting substitution characters for ?, & and = separately.
Redirect old style URLs to the new format to save all older backward links and search results
Hide real file extensions by replacing it with .htm
Apply different settings for directories and even files.
Ability to apply transformation only to certain links on pages by filtering a link format.
