It's also better to use short url's because of focus on the keywords that do matter. I like short url’s too. It’s also better to use short url’s because of focus on the keywords that do matter.

Is it because of the "to keep them short" advice you give here ? Friendly greetings, dave Just came across this post, which is maybe a bit late but I was wondering why you don’t use a permalink structure with the category and the title of the post in your url’s ?

Is it because of the “to keep them short” advice you give here ?

Friendly greetings,

When you are presented with 10 search results for "taco recipes", all other things being equal you will click on... www.domain.com/recipes/tacos/ and not www.domain.com/index.php?page_id=2354&cat_id=64 Just had my nice long comment wiped when I entered the CAPTCHA wrongly, so might be worth looking at that one :(

It was actually much easier than I first thought to implement, and having all the data stored in a database allows for easy updates and very few CF files as you stated above. It may have taken a little more development time up front, but I can't imagine going it any other way going forward. BTW, I like the design of this blog. A new design is just what I need for my site :-) About a year ago I launched a Notre Dame football site (www.ndlna.com) with seo friendly urls, using coldfusion.
