Long URL in Daily Reports: Adding Dates instead of keywords

[JonsonSwartz]

Hello,

One of my clients posts a daily review of the finance market.

it's been a discussion in our SEO team, whether to add the title to the URL or to write the date of the daily review in the URL instead.

Adding keywords instead of dates:

advantage: Adding keywords to the URL helping getting ranked for those keywords.
disadvantage: the URL comes out too long.

what do you suggest in this case? keeping the keywords in the URL or adding dates instead and lose one of the important factors which affects getting ranked for the specific keywords.

I would certainly say keywords.  Maybe shortening the folder name or whatever it is that is making it too long.

I would use the keywords, imagine if you just had the title to go by what that would say to both the user and to Google's spiders.
