Determine the best URL structure

[MarkScully]

Hi guys,

I'm working my way through a URL restructure at the moment and I've several ideas about the best way to do it.

However, it would be good to get some views on this.

At the moment I'm working on a property website - http://bit.ly/N7eew7

As you can quickly see, the URL structure of the site needs a lot of work.

Similar websites  -

http://bit.ly/WXH5WG

http://bit.ly/Q3UiLC

One of the sites has http://www.domain.ie/property-to-let/location/

And the other has  http://www.domain.ie/rentals/location/property-to-let/

I could do with some guidance about the best steps to take with this.

I've a few ideas myself but this is a massive project.

Cheers,

Mark

I would recommend using a similar URL structure as http://www.domain.ie/rentals/location/property-to-let/

When on the site you are working on you can see that there are three main solutions - sales, lettings and sharing. I would have www.yourdomain.ie/sales and then follow this with location and then property. This would be a good organised architecture.

An example URL would be:

http://www.yourdomain.ie/lettings/dublin-city/property-to-let/?min-price=500&max-price=700

You would also need to use rel="canonical" in order to prevent duplicate content issues.
