The best URL for your website

URL structure is an important SEO factor, so here are some useful guidelines to keep in mind when designing your website.

Homepage (www.mysite.com.au)
When choosing your domain name, try and include your primary keyword somewhere in the name.

Additional Pages
(www.mysite.com.au/[keyword])
On additional pages use another major keyword as the directory and filename for this page.

About Us Page (www.example.com/about-[business name])
The about us page is a chance to make sure your website ranks strongly when customers search for your business name. Using the format /about-[businessname] with the business name in file name will help with this.

Following these guidelines is a good way to build your SEO browser ranking for your website.
