Andy17 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I know the discussion about SEO friend URLs has been brought up multiple times, but I have a more precise question; I read the following phrase: Do not use too general parameters like ID; it will be ignored by Google as it thinks it's a session ID. I am using id as a parameter on my website; do you guys think I should change it into something else, or is this just something someone made up? Thank you.

dropfaith Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 i normally try to avoid using ids for this reason i use Name and have actual text up there seems to help out a bit for me plus for people who try to remember links a name is better then a random number to remember if the content matches the name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksystem Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 actually what you only need to learn is mod_rewrite. You can rewrite urls that has an id to identify pages/products/articles etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
