Should i get witty with folder name of Blog?

[inmn]

I understand the importance of keywords, but I also worry about the usability factor.

Curious - anyone ever study about the impact of calling your WP folder "blog" vs "long-primarykeyword"

Im thinking of something generic

/blog
/community
/articles
/info

Vs long keyword

/long-keyword/

ANyone have any input? Every time I search, i see things about Folders vs Subdomains, etc.

Thanks everyone for your feedback!

Hi

I think its better to be "Blog"; users know what blog means, but other things (long keyword stuffs) is confusing them. If you want to use your keywords, use /blog/keyword-as-category.

when I worked for an SEO agency, our blog was called 'SEO-blog' rather than just 'blog'. Personally, I don't think it really matters that much. I wouldn't go for anything really long though because long URLs are not nice (for SEO, for the user, heck for anyone really!)

Thank you for your help

Thanks - yes, i wish our keword was shorter, but

longnameing-blog/ seems over the top, and

/idea-blog/ sounds assinine
