Configure search engine to crawl dynamic content displayed by webparts

Question

I have a question about searching dynamic content in SharePoint 2010. I need to configure SharePoint search engine in a web portal based on webparts where the content of the web is dynamic.

An example:
A page (CompanyList.aspx) that includes a webpart that displays a list of companies with basic info. The webpart reads the data info from a sharepoint list.

Each displayed item has a link to another page (eg. CompanyInfo.aspx?companyId=1) CompanyInfo.aspx has a webpart that displays full information about the company based on companyId.

I want these pages be shown on the search results. How do i set up the search engine to display these dynamic pages?

Thx.
