Tech/Engineering - Internet, e-Commerce / website navigation | | German term or phrase: Folgeseite(n) | From a style guide for a corporate website.
The *Folgeseiten* are the pages after the homepage.
This is a heading so I would like to avoid using a phrase.
My ideas so far:
follow-on/up page(s)
Any other ideas?
TIA |

| Clarification request(s) and responsesylvie malich: 11:26 Jun 19, 2005: "Follow-on" pages is definitely a no-no. A follow up pages would suggest revised versions of original page. -
sylvie malich: 11:27 Jun 19, 2005: >ahem< "Follow-up pages would suggest..." -
ENGSOL (asker): 13:19 Jun 19, 2005: sylvia, thanks for confirming my suspicions! :-)
Hillary, I like your *internal pages*, but I'm wondering whether that would refer to ANY page after the homepage/landing page or whether the term is not used more specifically for pages that can only be accessed by registered users/members of a site. Comment? :-)
silfilla: 13:31 Jun 19, 2005: see: http://www.webstyleguide.com/site/home.html ... *internal page* seems to refer to any page aside from the home page -
Hilary Davies: 13:49 Jun 19, 2005: Hello - we used it for any page after the home page, and I checked the references I gave to make sure this is how they used it too. BUT - i did see some references which used "internal pages" as opposed to "publicly-accessible pages". -
Hilary Davies: 13:50 Jun 19, 2005: I would have said that those references were inaccurate - we used to call such pages "private", "hidden" or "intranet" pages, depending on what they were, but you will find them! Does that help? -
ENGSOL (asker): 14:10 Jun 19, 2005: Thanks, silfilla. I've been using that site a lot. Lots of text though and I hadn't discovered the *internal pages* yet!
Hilary (one 'l' -- sorry), that helps! Thank you :-)

I used to work as part of an in-house web team - we called them the site's "internal pages"

What about the web site\'s home page?
When they start a web planning project, people tend to get obsessive about the home page. And that\'s a big mistake. What\'s much more important is to consider what the standard template is going to look like for all the internal pages, and then make the home page a derivation of that. The home page is very important, but it\'s inherently a singular problem. Whereas, if you screw up the template for your internal pages, you could have thousands of problems very quickly.

* Deep linking
The term “deep linking” refers to the act of hyper-linking to an off-site web page which is not the home page of the website being linked to, i.e. linking to internal pages of an off-site website.

\"How can I get external links to the internal pages of my site?
Can you suggest some strategies?
I am about to sign up for Ezinearticles.com (I love to write & we have a great newsletter program with tons of articles that our subscribers read regularly) and it looks like this is one route.
I want to diversify the sources that also point into my internal pages.
I have found few directories where this is possible.
Our internal pages have some useful and interesting content, but I am struggling with this ongoing problem.\"
