15. Re: Cleaner RESTful urls? Any suggestions?
stephen.friedrich Sep 13, 2007 1:18 PM (in response to toby451)I don't think so. As you may know google has been very hesitant (to say the least) in describing its bot, to make it harder to cheat.

gagool Sep 13, 2007 4:02 PM (in response to toby451)I need this feature too, because in my case the URL will point to a user home and must be as easy as possible to remember.
It is also my opinion that slashes are more aesthetically pleasing than ampersands. Complete control of the URL can also make it easier to understand what it points to if formatted carefully.
http://cool.com/usersegment/username
looks much nicer and is easier to remember than
http://cool.com/userPage.seam?s=usersegment&u=username
Outgoing url rewriting seems hard to do with urlrewrite filter brcause the urls arent sent in one encode request.. so the url filter gets just parts of the url at different times. -

These are not rumors and hearsay, these are solidly documented facts. They are so well-known that they are common knowledge, and it may be hard to find exact references on them, but....

The #1 most important keywords are in the domain name. #2 are in the rest of the URL. This is proven and easily observable by people in the field.
In fact this forum would have a lot better placement if it had saner URLs for threads. -

http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=40349&ctx=relatedConsider creating static copies of dynamic pages. Although the Google index includes dynamic pages, they comprise a small portion of our index. If you suspect that your dynamically generated pages (such as URLs containing question marks) are causing problems for our crawler, you might create static copies of these pages.
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en-uk&answer=35769If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e. the URL contains a "?" character), be aware that not every search engine spider crawls dynamic pages as well as static pages. It helps to keep the parameters short and few in number.
