How can i make google to recognize my subpages allso?

The most reliable way is to make sure that you get rid of the ?page= stuff

with a little work you ought to be able to get it to look like this:

	http://example.com/index/subpage34

and that is a link Google will like much more than anything with a ?

Long as there is a link *somewhere* that google can come across to get to 
each sub-page, it will index every page of your site, regardless of what 
the URL is unless you specifically state otherwise in the robots.txt 
file.

I'd say that's certain true of static pages, but many search engines (and I 
believe Google to be one of them)

Make a site with a clear hierarchy and text links. Every page should be 
reachable from at least one static text link.

If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e., the URL contains a '?' character) 
, be aware that not every search engine spider crawls dynamic pages as well 
as static pages. It helps to keep the parameters short and the number of 
them small.
