    Search Engine friendly urls ?

    It has come to my attention that my sites urls may not be very search engine friendly.

    The site is
    www.GamePlayOnline.com.

    Most urls are like this -
    http://www.gameplayonline.com/index.php?page=shootinggames.php

    Does Google/search engines have problems with urls like this?
    and if so
    How can I fix it ?

    Also I'm reasonably new to Search Engine Optimisation, if there is any obvious problems with my site in relation to search engine optimisation please let me know,

    Thanks everyone,

    BTW, all the best with the site Chris, its really moving now.

    Hi Dan. Appears Google has no trouble following your links; your site is well indexed in Google.

    If you are interested in creating SE-friendly URLs:

    I have a script for free online games site which I have used myself and on Michael Gersitz new site. I can give you it if you want. It will makes your game urls like www.site.com/game/shootinghoops

    GCT13, ok, would having SE friendly URLS help anyway?

    Incka, that would be great! If you could please email it - admin@gameplayonline.com. If you want to transfer it another way just let me know,

    Thanks guys,

    -Dan

    It would make your URLs more pleasing to the eye

    It is good practice to get into with your sites. If you decide to update the links for GamePlayOnline, don't forget to create redirects for all the non-SE-friendly links.

    It's easier with MSN because I can guide you through how to install it. My MSN is sean@incka.com
