Is there Any difference Between page.php and page.htm?

I want to know what is the difference between using php extenson and using htm extenson during page saving process.
And what is the best for SEO?

 

Historically static looking pages were better. I don't think it matters that much in google anymore. In the distant past, they were skeptical of indexing pages that were dynamic (all php pages can be dynamic, why else would you choose them).

Both are the same in terms of SEO. Just make sure to avoid tagging session parameters in the dynamic urls..

 

search engines preferred .htm. But these days a php page can be easily rewritten as htm, and an .htm page content can be made to run as a dynamic .php file.

So if search engines know this is possible, I'm not sure if it matters anymore. But to be safe, use the .htm.

 

What do you mean by Tagging session parameters?
more explanation please

For php pages, should i edit meta tags?Or it is the same as htm pages

Thanks all

 

Google likes more .html rather than .php

Just my opinion

The meta tags will not be affected be it .php or .html. Hence, do it as per normal
