Nothing is generated at all. We have managed to build a "template" style store that you literally upload your product details/images onto the "template page" and then add on to the site.
Then for the products that are end of line for example I am experimenting with the "unavailable_after" tag so the spiders stop crawling after a set date. In this case when you are close to selling out of that product or a product that is on special offer for 30 days say.
Think of it like just building a static HTML site.
I think the smallest e-commerce site I own has around 2000 items on it and thats just selling high-end clothing.
Yes it means more pages and more work, however, this little extra workload results in my stores dominating each of their respective niches for all the keywords I have targeted.
So the little extra 10 minute effort is worth the time.
As for the image search thing, thats just my theory from being involved in SEO/SEM for almost 12 years. I have no conclusive evidence for this but every experiment I have done leads to no proof of images listed in Google helps in ranking your site higher.
