ChaosKnight Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I read that search engine bots are very picky about URLs and that therefore search engine "friendly" URLs should be used... I know what it is, but what I don't know is how to generate the "better" URL... What will be better for the bots?: /countries/1/hotels/ or this: /countries/southafrica/hotels or: /countries/south-africa/hotels/ I don't really know where to put this post, but I think it's programming theory If anyone can help me, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/205061-better-urls/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Look into mod_rewrite. If you have further questions about mod_rewrite there's a board you can ask questions on here.

Alex Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Oh yeah, I meant to mention that in my post as well. I think 3 would be the best. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/205061-better-urls/#findComment-1073755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
