Googles Take On : Dynamic URLs vs. static URLs
 

Or an alternative title: Google puts a cat amongst the webmaster pigeons

I have just come across the following blog on the Official Google Webmaster Blog:

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogsp...atic-urls.html

Which makes for an interesting read...

In summary and if I understand correctly it would seem that Google would prefer webmasters to use dynamic URLs:

http://blah.com/page.php?p=1&x=foobar&var=22

Rather than a static rewrite URL:

http://blah.com/news/cat-amongst-the-webmaster-pigeons/

This is going to open up a big can of SEO worms

What I find most amusing though is the url of the Google blog, shouldn't it be something like:

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/blog.php?year=2008&month=09&blogid=1234

Good read, thanks for posting that.
