SEO – Relevant File Names (04)
SEO – Relevant File Names When you want to rank your files in search engines, one of the simplest methods you can use is a perspective on how to name your files.
One thing I have noticed in terms of SEO is that filenames are taken very seriously by most search engines. Even search engines like Google give importance to file names. What I learned about filenames from research before writing this tutorial is “First decide what you want to put on your web page, then name the file accordingly. Then you will see that your web page has started to rank very quickly in the search engines”.
If you find it hard to believe, go to Google and type any keyword in the search engine, then you will see a list of highlighted files related to that keyword. This proves that it is very important to have appropriate keywords for file names.
(File Naming Style) File Naming Style:
The file name should be short and descriptive.
It is best to always keep the keywords in the page title and file name the same.
Avoid using generic type names, such as 'company.htm' or 'production.htm' Use names that relate to the actual function of your file, such as online-marketing-help.htm
Always make sure that your file should have a maximum of 3 to 4 words or keywords, not more than that. But 2 is better.
Use hyphens, not underscores, to separate keywords in your files.
Below is a list of some filenames that would be ideal from a user perspective and SEO point of view:-
bhairab-it-zone.html
online-marketing-help.html
computer-repairing-shop.html
training-center-for-beginners.html
The above are the names that Google sees well. Because it doesn't use underscores like (, . ? _ ).
SEO-Relevant-Filename – (as this is a standard file naming style)
(File Extension) File extension:
.html, .htm, and .php basically guide your website visitors by properly offloading some of the server configuration work, not much else. None of these and any other extensions are of any use to the visitors. In essence, you are asking your site visitors to tell the web server - which pages to generate and which not to.
Many web experts feel that using filenames rather than extensions may be more beneficial. But actually, it helps a little bit but doesn't help much at all.
(URL Sub-Directory Name) URL Sub-Directory Name:
From the point of view of search engine optimization, the URL Sub-Directory Name is not so important. You can search by typing any keyword in your search bar, as a result, you will not find any sub-directory name similar to your keyword. Because it doesn't matter that much. Again, from the user's point of view, at least a sort of sub-directory name is not required.
(Guru Mantra) Guru Mantra:
Before naming your files keep the following points in mind –
First of all, keep in mind that the name you are going to give your file should be short and the category name should describe the file in detail, and also keep in mind that the name should be relevant to your content.
Try to have a maximum of 3 to 4 keywords in your file, no more. Then keep in mind that the keywords must be present in the Heading of your file.
Use hyphens (-) when separating keywords, and avoid using underscores (, _ ”: ; ).
Keep your file size below 101k, as Google truncates files above that size.
Always try to keep the sub-directory name short.
