I've tried the above with both home.seam and home.xhtml as the target welcome page but with no success. Maybe because the server tries to access the file directly rather than letting seam intercept the file by extension? Solution attempt 2 - create a robots.txt file that directs the search engines to the correct root page for the site (home.seam).
