Domain Name & URLs
Domains and URLs make a difference
Choose your URL wisely. h;p://www.shoes.com/nike-‐running-‐shoes-‐for-‐men/
Instead of h;p://www.shoes.com/products/879861/id=5674-‐7yhe9j/
URL structure is important for the search engines to understand what your site and domain is about.
Include keywords in your domain and URL whenever possible.
Research what keywords to include in Google Keyword Planner
