Can somebody please help? Does having subfolders on a homepage have any affect on a websites SEO? For example, if the homepage is keyword.com/content/keyword-home and the other pages are keyword.com/content/keyword-two, and so on. If having a subfolder such as the content example above is a bad thing, can somebody please explain how to remove it so the homepage is simply keyword.com? I was told that because of the hosting package (1and1), and becuase the site was made using active server pages, the home page needs to have a name? As you can probably guess I am very new to this and did not build the website myself so would very much appreciate some advice. Thanks in advance.
Yes they do help! you should be going with these 2, they all good! 1. www.yourdomain.com/keyword/index.html 2. www.yourdomain.com/keyword.html
So am I right in thinking then that having all of the pages through a subfolder doesn't make any difference to SEO? e.g. homepage.com/content/index.aspx If all of the urls have the content subfolder, would it be best to replace the index part of the homepage with a relevant keyword?? e.g. homepage.com/content/keyword.aspx
