: Can a PHP generated main page be indexed by Google? I generate an index.html file in a PHP script to avoid PHP code within HTML and to show content that is delivered by another script hourly.

Google won't care whether the index.html file is created dynamically or created every hour. What is important is the content of the file.

For example, this is what Google says about scraped content.


Some webmasters use content taken (“scraped”) from other, more
reputable sites on the assumption that increasing the volume of pages
on their site is a good long-term strategy regardless of the relevance
or uniqueness of that content. Purely scraped content, even from
high-quality sources, may not provide any added value to your users
without additional useful services or content provided by your site;


You just need to make sure you follow their webmaster guidelines.
