Many Search Engine Optimization (SEO) topics are like great Arcade or Adventure games – one can learn the basics in a few hours, one can use cheat codes but really mastering them can take years. A topic is dere which always generate tons of questions, by some time ago I am one of them too : and that question is about URL’s. Generaly webmasters, Blogg owners have the query that what type of URL’s they use to promote their Websites and Blogs, How to construct them, Whats the pieces are, how to optimize them, what parameters they have to follow etc and etc.

Generally webmasters who are not friendly with the Google Dance, what algos google follows to rank their sites, they used Old Dynamic URL’s.
For eg. : http://vijaytapundir.com/index.php?product=123&sort=price&print=1

Here index is page/file name,
.php is file extension,
product=123&sort=price&print=1 are CGI parameters

In which CGI parameters are called after file extensionwhich is followed by file name.
Search Engine never like dynamic URl’s. Dynamic URL’s are big threat for a sites’s good ranking.

Then comes Search Engine Friendly URL’s in which folder/paths like categories or sub categories are followed by page which sumtimes followed by named anchor like
Eg : http://vijaytapundir.com/category/subcategory/url-anatomy#top
Here url-anatomy is page
and #top is named anchor

Hence the result came out of silent discussion and study that Search Engine Friendly URL’s  works best
