I covered a lot of ground regarding WordPress plugins in this year, but one article that wasn’t discussed is how make your search string “SEO friendly”.
Short summary: When search engines visit your website, if your page are dynamic, normally result won’t get indexed. Unless of course you store them as a static page in a specific folder in your blog.

Possible Workaround
Fortunately, there are a great many third-party solutions who create WordPress plugins, that allowing you to extend the capabilities of WordPress, and to interact with it. For those have this problem, a possible workaround is to directing your WordPress searches results to another URL version.
Nice Search is one of the most useful plugins made for WordPress recently, that can help you to customize your search strings without having to edit any PHP files.
Mark has overcomed any number of development obstacles to allow you to redirects the WordPress searches(?s=search-term) to the pretty-looking URL version:/search/search-term, and also converts spaces(%20) to plus symbols.
I’ve tested it to my blog, with my old integrated search engine( Now I’ve Google Search engine). With my old search engine the search result for “affiliate programs” keyword are:
“http://www.the3dtrechnologies.com/index.php?s=affiliate+programs”, while with my “http://www.the3dtrechnologies.com/search/affiliate+programs”.
Great Work!
