Doubts with URL's structure

[omarmoscatt]

Hi guys i have some doubts with the correct URL structure for a new site.

The question is about how show the city, the district and also the filters.

I would do that:

www.domain.com/category/city/disctict

but maybe is better do that:

**www.domain.com/category/city-district **

I also have 3 filters that are "individual/colective" "indoor/outdoor" and "young/adult" but that are not really interesting for the querys so where and how i put this filtters? At the end of the url showing these: **www.domain.com/cateogry/city/district#adult#outdoor#colective ** ? Well really i don't know what to do with the filters.

Check if you could help me with that please. I also have a lof of interest in knowing if maybe is better use this combination **www.domain.com/category-city or domain.com/category/city **and know about the diference.

Thank you very much!

Hi Ricardo

It's best to minimise folder levels if you can so of those you have listed **www.domain.com/category-city **would be more favourable.

I'm not understanding the second part of your question with regard to filters. Do they relate to the category in the above URL structure? Please could you provide more information.

Hi Peter,

Thanks a lot for your quick response but we still have some doubts.

Firstly, we agree on the fact that your solution minimizes the level of folders and it will help improving the optimization. However, after having performed some investigations we noticed that other sites uses the other models (for instance, www.domain.com/category/city). On our case, the District is also relevant so we need to make sure we include it as well. Where do you think we should place the District?

On the other side, how do you think we should manage the filters? Do you believe we can link together the main url with every single filter such as  **URL+(#adult#outdoor#colective) or URL+(#AOC) **(filter's first character)? If dont, which model would you suggest us to use?

Hi Ricardo

If you want to include district as well and district is part of the city which I think it is, then go for: www.domain.com/category-city-district

I'm sorry but I still do not understand the filters you are speaking about. Do they relate to the category?
