What is the Best Permalink Structure for SEO? - steve7376 - 04-28-2014 11:24 AM

Please help me with a public study I'm working on regarding SEO and permalink structure. Seeing how Amazon.com and eBay.com have shortened their permalinks, parsing out directories and subdirectories, what do you feel the ideal permalink structure is for modern day SEO?

Example:

http://www.google.com/Category/keyword.html
http://www.google.com/keyword.html
http://www.google.com/keyword/
http://www.google.com/keyword-category/
Etc

Thanks for your feedback!

Its really not that must of a deal, but you should have your keyword in the mix regardless of what you do..

For me I'll go with domain.com/keyword-category/keyword/

reason - If you put category in middle with having your main keyword can boost rankings and having a html or not doesn't has anything to do with SEO.

Also, putting category helps you to earn site links on Google if you interlink them nicely on website.

All are good
http://www.google.com/keyword.html

is good for user to remember, and can have easy access to your web pages

but having the primary keyword category rises your SERP ranking...as Ramesh told us that .html extensions does not have any meaning...he is right...and user might frustrated to type it ....better not to show any sort of extension in your file name.
