Number ID's in URL's

[simmo235]

If you have to place a number ID into a URL. Does it matter from an seo perspective whether it is placed in the middle or at the end? Thanks

I would not worry about it that much if it's just a short number. However, if it's a larger string of numbers, I'd recommend moving it towards the end of the URL if possible or completely getting rid of it.

If it's something like:

www.example.com/red-widgets-c1.php or www.example.com/c1-red-widgets.php both are fine, but I'd prefer the 1st one. I hope this helps.
