How to remove category id from url in magento website ?
As great as Magento is there are a number of failings it can have from an search engine optimisation point of view and one of the biggest bugbears our SEO consultants have had with it is the number of different URLs a product can be accessed on.
If product a is in category 1 and two then by default magento will create links to it on the following URLs.
www.mystore.com/category-1/product-a.html
www.mystore.com/category-2/product-a.html
www.mystore.com/product-a.html
This can cause duplicate content issues from a search engine point of view. One solution is ensuring that you have canonical URLs in place so the search engine knows which is the primary URL. Better still is to ensure the same URL is produced for the product each and every time by removing the category part.
