      Hi,

      My site structure looks like this.

      domainname.com/nl/holidayhouses/villa-costa
      domainname.com/nl/apartments/apartment-caifem

      ect.

      I just went to zappos to research the site and het notice me that zappos.com has no directories. If i implement this my structure looks like this.

      domainname.com/nl/holidayhouse-villa-costa
      domainname.com/nl/apartments-apartment-caifem

      Is this a better approach?

      Ciao,

      Remco

        It would be a shorter url (good), and a more descriptive page name (good), but your original one isn't bad either (no dynamic variables and etc).

        If your currents structure is already being indexed, I don't think it is worth changing though.
