Roryaro Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Hi, I've heard that website hierarchy is important for SEO and for getting crawled by Google. My website uses osCommerce and PHP version 5.6. At the moment the website looks like this: www.websitename.com/page_xyz However I would like it to be structured so that if page_xyz were accessible within categoryA, the URL would look like this: www.websitename.com/categoryA/page_xyz Does anyone know how to do this (without going through page per page)? I've heard that it might be possible by going through the two configure.php files, but I don't know whether this is correct or not. (I also have next to no PHP experience). Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Rory
Jack_mcs Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 That can be done with Ultimate SEO and maybe with SEO 5, though I don't use it and can't say for sure.

Roryaro Posted April 4, 2016 Author Posted April 4, 2016 Thanks both of you. I'm gonna give it a try. I noticed the author of the latest version (Bobby) was banned from one of the forums. Does anyone know why? Thanks, Rory

MrPhil Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I recall seeing some earlier discussion about Google paying more attention to the page hierarchy. It sounds like they want something like the breadcrumb navigation to be reflected in the directory hierarchy, regardless of whether that truly shows the physical location of the file?
burt Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 1. Forget changing your URLs. 2. Microdata your Breadcrumb. Do this and Google will list your heirarchy rather than your URL.
