title: SEO benefits of .html v/s jsp/php/etc?
body: <p>This may sound like a stupid question, perhaps it is. But I'm only trying to make sure there's no secret information hiding from me.</p>
  
  <p>Alright, so if I have the option of putting in extra effort to develop in plain html and hook up my back-end via ajax, do I go for it?</p>
  
  <p>Meaning, I could use PHP/JSP to include files such as headers, footers and navigation. This processing takes place upon user request for the file. </p>
  
  <p>But alternatively, I can use an ant build script to compile an HTML file from headers, footers, navigation, etc upon release. But that takes some effort.</p>
  
  <p>Keep in mind, that this is not an AJAX v/s non-AJAX question and resultant output file in both cases is the same, except for the file extensions.</p>
