    Hi Friends,

    Which would be the Best URL structure from below three options for search engine portal like database of reviews and User/Expert reviews.

    1) Yoursite.com/Reviews/Digital-Cameras/123

    2) Yoursite.com/Digital-Camera-Reviews/123

    3) Yoursite.com/REviews/Digital-Camera-Reviews/123[/url]


    I Need to confirm with you before apply the some permanent changes in my site so please advise in this case of sub folder/product.

    Awaiting for your reply

    Thanks
    Eric

    make it your option 1)
    if you are sure ONLY digital cameras
    you may one day find a need for video cameras or non-digi cameras ?? or accessories such as lenses, filters, photo-printers, photo paper, etc ...
    else use only /cameras/ to leave an option for NON-digi camera-reviews
    make all foldernames LOWERcase ! also all file names - this avoids eventual mistyping by those typing a URL

    however
    if EVER you may have OTHER services/products than reviews
    then you may start

    /cameras/reviews
    instead of reviews/cameras
    first option leaves you the choice of adding any NON-review sub-subfolders or chapters such as tutorials, accessories, contests, forum, blog, etc
