From my internal links, which a is better idea?Code: [ Select ]I think the 1st is better. Not all earch engine can spider your url with "?"I too would use option 2 without the redirect or option 1 with the class.cool thanks guys.*** Glad to see someone cleaned up those URLs ***If the pages display correctly ... then most robots can reconstruct the path. So there really is no difference as far as search engines are concerned.Some people think that including the full path will some how provide more keywords or domain name exposure. This is absolutely false! URLS are not treated the same as text displayed on the page. Links are simply stored as pointers for the robot to crawl next. In my mind the absolute address is really unnecessary.As a programmer full path is wrong however GoogleGuy this month said it is actually preferred to make sure no other test domain or non www vs www issues..Yeah, I read that thread also ... but he is discussing links to the ROOT document only ....Quote:I have a tendency to use the same page name under different directorys. i personall prefer:<A href="http://www.ozzu.com/page2.html"> or <A href="http://www.ozzu.com/(directory)/page2.html"> but rtchar is right search engines can form the address if the domain name is missing.As far as domain.com vs. http://www.domain.com just setup a 301 redirect in your .htaccess forwarding everything from domain.com to http://www.domain.com and that takes care of that one.With regard to whether you should include the full domain name, etc. in the internal page links. Why would you do that? If you've got links on a page to 50 other pages on your site, and each of those links starts with http://www.yourdomain.com/ that's an extra couple of K of crap you're adding to the file, making your noise:content ratio less desirable.I don't see any reason to use the full domain name on internal links, except for your homepage link (which I generally link to http://www.domain.com/ instead of /index.html or /index.php).Number Two, if you have a good domain.Imagine the diference:<a href=http://www.ozzu.com/other-google-information-and-resources/page.htm>page</a>and<a href=www.myrichkeyworddomain.com/page.html>page</a>
