How to define URLs structure for big website? I would like to know about SEO point of views, What’s the funda of URL Structure? Please Help, Thanks in advance.
The funda to optimize URL structure is basically depends on your link-building strategies. However, my personal recommendation is to create long tail URL (meaningful). Google will give it priority in comparison to exact match. Azee
Just go through this first your domain name then category and after it sub category i.e www.indiaindustry.com/industries/sub-industries. It is the best url structure method.
domain.com/main-category/second-level-category/title-of-the-page Ex: abc.com/women/shoes/reebok/some-product-name This way you can structure your web-page for a product site It helps you to index all your pages easily by Google bots
Use hyphens & keyword on your pages name. mean if you want to target web design Sydney keyword then make one page for web design Sydney on your website and make url like this.abc.com/Web Design/Web-Design-Sydney but don't use lot use hyphens.
URL shoud be keyword rich, attractive to humans, should be short if possible, seo friendly, do not use slangs, etc.
URL should be Keyword rich URL should match with your breadcrumb... so it should be like domainname.com/first-level-category/second-level-category/title-of-the-page If your site doesn't have a breadcrumb then get one. Its good from SEO point of view. Make sure the title of the page is not too long. If it is, then modify the URL and make sure it is not too long.
Ideally, URL should not have more than 3-5 words. If the URLs exceed that then Google ignores and does not give much credit to it. Short URLs gives better rankings as well as more click through. Other things to consider are – use dashes instead of underscores to distinguish two words in the URL, minimum capital letters should be used in the URL, and many others.
I get best results when the url is simply the website name (preferably keyword rich domain) and the page url is the keyword you are trying to rank for. For example if your website is dogtraining.com, then you interior pages should read something like dogtraining.com/pitbull-obedience.html
