SEO optimization for dynamic URL

Webmaster tools and URL parameters

Recently Google filmed a video to provide more information about the URL Parameters feature in Google Webmaster Tools.

The URL Parameters feature is designed for webmasters who want to help Google crawl their site more efficiently, and who manage a site with URL parameters!

To be eligible for this feature, the URL parameters must be configured in key/value pairs like item=swedish-fish or category=gummy-candy in the URL http://www.example.com/product.php?item=swedish-fish&category=gummy-candy.

URL Parameter settings are powerful. By telling Google how parameters behave and the recommended action for Googlebot, you can improve your site’s crawl efficiency. On the other hand, if configured incorrectly, you may accidentally recommend that Google ignore important pages, resulting in those pages no longer being available in search results.

In my opinion this is an essential tool and functionality to use for SEO.

About

SpyrosWelcome to my personal "mostly" page. For me this is a part time personal project that I develop at my free time and maintain with few friends with expertise in various fields. We gather here most of our personal work and knowledge. So you will find... open source software, training courses, blog articles and a lot more. Some things are free and some are available with cost, since require some person time to deliver to each person interested. We are happy because our free software has been downloaded about     times until now, and this page has been visited by about     people since 01-01-2012.
You can contact using the contact form. I will respond in less than 24 hours.
Enjoy your staying! :)
