Apart from inbuilt server controls and HTML controls, ASP.Net offers us the flexibility to create our own custom control which can be reused across our project.

The main disadvantage of the inbuilt pager in GridView control is, it is not simply a hyper link to a page but they are associated with javascript which makes a postback to bind the current page records and thus making it not search engine friendly pager. A link is search engine friendly if it has a target page associated with it through href property. Search engines will automatically reach the target page and will index those pages in this case.
