    I am currently modifying a script, and I came into a problem, so I need some advice.

    The script is creating pages that look like:

    http://www.site.com/more+information.html

    How bad is the "%2B" part for SEO? Will those pages be indexed OK, or do I have to find a way to replace it?

    They'll get indexed, but those type of URLs won't help. I'd change the script or have a programmer change the script to add a - instead of %2B (i'm not sure what that stands for...it's not a space, which is %20).

    If the script can not be changed, play around the the .htacess files to have clean URLs.

    Example:
    http:// www .site.com/more-information.html

    I think there is no problem with %2B according to seo. You can do it
