SEO Secrets "-" or "_" or "+", we looking for 7yrs

[zaharch]

Hey Developers ! So what it the best way to build website , what the best structure of url's we need to use ?

our company doing ecommerce websites for 7 years, some of our clients making millions online , some of them has 100000 pages, and we still looking for the answers

---- What BETTER for google ?

1) yoursite.com/category-name/nice-product-name.html
2) yoursite.com/category+name/nice+product+name.html
3) yoursite.com/category_name/nice_product_name.html
one of our clients ask as to to do :
4) yoursite.com/category_name_nice_product_name.html (crazy ha, but he is number 1 for his key term)


---- url structure ?

we was always wondering is this good for google to provide large url's , sometimes developers using product ID's sometime product name, but only few of them using DESCRIPTIONS in urls (yes wow!)

1) sitename.com/id2223423.html
2) sitename.com/nice+name+products.html
3) sitename.com/here+we+use+description+of+the+product+and+this+is +huge+name.html


so tell us professionals, is this really matters? if yes QUESTION for google what the maximum quantity of symbols we can use in url

THANKS, THANKS, THANKS

Good question,

I haven't noticed any difference between "+" and "-" in url, but I always try to use "-" for separating words and don't suggest using "_".

The "-" is the sign that google most recognize.

ok biggest question!

site.com/product-name.hml small , just a name only few keywords here

OR

site.com/all-product-description-and-review-goes-here.html LARGE, MANY keywords are here!

so DOES google care about words in url - is this good to use large descriopiton in url, and if this will be good for google search ?

thanks

العاب ورق العاب اكشن
العاب ذكاء العاب ديكور
العاب بنات العاب طبخ
العاب تلبيس بنات العاب ماريو
العاب

Usually if you don't have an answer to something, it only takes 1 minute to find out. I searched for eBay product on google to find how google displays urls in search results and the first match showed me:

eBay.ie: Microphone For SPORT-CAM Helmet Cameras Mic (item ...
cgi.ebay.ie/Microphone-For-SPORT-CAM-Helmet-Cameras-Mic_W0QQitemZ180150991499QQihZ008QQcategoryZ23780QQcm ...

THE LONG URL was cut off at 105 characters. So here goes your answer, whatever long your url, Google will show only first 105 chars.

I think now, Google has considered underscores as spaces as I have read the blog.

I would choose #1 for URL structure. I have read that Google has considered underscores as spaces
