Hello,
I am a web developer and I got requirement from one of my clients saying that he wants SEO friendly URLs. So, please help me to know about the SEO friendly URL. Thank you.
SEO Friendly URL is a well-optimized URL, which helps to understand the content of a website to search engine bots or crawlers and users at the same time. Creating SEO friendly URL is a method of making a set of URL’s which is expressive enough to access and understand by Bots (Search Engine Crawlers) and Humans (Website Visitors). There are several parameters which can follow to create or generate the best URL's.
SEO friendly URL can be implemented by using the simple way like domain name - main category - subcategory - page name. Do not use any special characters or numbers in the given format.
SEO friendly URL's mainly important in eCommerce or online shopping sites because this site has many products or categories, so user will easily find the appropriate navigation on the website.
Take an example, if your website contains information about your company and/or services and that is basically it, no matter how many pages your website have, I’d go with the shortest URL possible.
- http[:]//example[.]com/contact-us/
- http[:]//example[.]com/about-company/
SEO friendly URLs for your Online Store, If your website is an eCommerce or online store, there are two ways to go about:
- http[:]//example[.]com/product-name/
- http[:]//example[.]com/category-name/product-name/
