Just found a cool SEO trick to help your page titles meta data and pages content for adwords results.

when making a link up to a search results page you can insert this {$smarty.get.searchtext} to display the search text in the layout.tpl

This will put the search text typed in by the user anyware you want. Im using it in the title meta, html of the layout.tpl and in showlistings.tpl files as h1 page titles

all other pages seem to work fine with {$smarty.get.searchtext} in the latout.tpl and showlistings.tpl

Are you stripping out the gibberish symbols from {$smarty.get.searchtext} so it makes more sense? Are you talking about the single search box or the multiple option search on the search page?

the single search box from the home page, you need to find a page with links made up already, copy and paste the code into your editor or note pad and start messing with find and replace.

Look for a place index page and with find and replace off you go

I would put the new listings plug on the search results page to keep the content changing on every page.

search result
/searchresults.php?searchtext=property

But if you had a copy of HTML links to every place in the USA it would be

/searchresults.php?searchtext=property+every place in the USA

that would give you a page with strong relevance and with find and replace property can be turned in cars, jobs, weddings, lawyers
