SEO Friendly web design

Bagi has just written and excellent one thousand words article about all you need to know about SEO friendly web design for web development blogs. Just a taster from the article follows:

Frequent design mistakes
I’ve seen so many websites where i found the “/index.php” as the main page link location instead of “/”. Search engines don’t know that this is the same location so they calculate the relevancy and importance of this locations separatly. If your hosting provider enabled the mod_rewrite possibility you can easily correct this mistake uploading the following. htaccess file to root location on your server.

<code>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
# index.php to /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
</code>
Depending on the used file extension the php may be substituted by html as well.

Google algorithm treats the www and the non www version of your domain separatly unless you show for it that they belong to the same domain. Firstly you need to choose which one you would like to use. Best way to select is visiting the Yahoo! Site Explorer service and after checking the results of the linkdomain:yourdomain.tld and linkdomain:www.yourdomain.tld queries you will see which one is more popular subdomain.
