I'm trying to SEO one of my sites..

hello guys,

this is what I've done so far,

made the htaccess file with

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule index-act-(.*)-id-(.*)\.htm$ index.php?act=$1&id=$2

and this allows me to make the links like

Code:

http://gametrump.com/index.php?act=play&id=39

to work as.

http://www.gametrump.com/index-act-play-id-39.htm

so, is there something I can put in the htaccess to make the links always appera as the re-written ones ?

thanks
-Brandon

do yourself a favour and just use

Code:

http://www.gametrump.com/play-id
to be passed to the following script:
http://gametrump.com/index.php?act=play&id=[id]

By the way, the .htaccess wont change you links for you. The htaccess file deals purely with handling the rewritten links - passing the requests to the real file.

You will need to edit your PHP files directly to make them output links in your chosen format.

Hop this helps.
