Naming my html pages..what is preferred
Greetings all,

I'm re-working my site to use XHTML/CSS. I have about 50 pages of content, each with their own link. My question is: How can I rename each page to improve my rankings while avoiding penalties? take for example this award (I collect military awards BTW):

Order for Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR

I don't think it would be wise for me to name this page:

order-for-service-to-the-motherland-in-the-armed-forces-of-the-ussr.html

would it ?

So, I'm wondering how many keywords I should include..maybe:

order-service-motherland-ussr.html ?

or

order-service-motherland-armed-forces-ussr.html?

I guess I'm wondering when is it to much..should I pick a few keywords and try to keep the number of words and dashes to a minimum? how many?

Thanks for any help...

I think you can get away with this:
Quote:
order-service-motherland-armed-forces-ussr.html
Make sure all those terms are also included in the H1 for the page.

It is best to keep url small. It will help you score higher rankings for your targeted keyword
