    | Does the url/link/addy matter?? Morning! Does it matter... to search engines or whatever... if a url/addy/link reads... http://www.chargecards.cc/credit-car...redit-card.htm vs. http://chargecards.cc/cps.htm I see my competitors have them spelled and I'm wondering why! Please advise!  Thanks! Lyte EDIT: Fix link.

| Hello Lyte, Yes they do matter. They are beeing used to get a higher relevance is Serp's ( Search engine result pages ). Let's say that you have a design company and one of your keywords is " web desgign" You get much higher rankins and relevance in SERP's if you have a domain name like : www.webdesign.com and pages that are named after your keywords like www.webdesign.com/web-design-services.html

 ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/website-development/89821-does-the-url-link-addy-matter.html I went with the long hairy web addy because it was what EVERYONE else was doing. I figured there was a method to their madness!  Thanks! Lyte | ||||

| Be aware though, that there are those of us that pay attention to the addy of the site in the search results before we click. If it has long page names such as how you've described, I generally will NOT click it. I assume it is a crappy bogus site focusing more on page ranking instead of page content. But then again, I'm a cynic.

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=89821 I'd been using _ then I noticed my comp using - so I switched. I didn't know why they were using - instead of _ but I'm no fool!  I figure if some big ol' site is doing things a certain way... there's gotta be a reason! Thanks for the heads up! | ||||
