User friendly URL in ASP.NET and SEO Page Rank

When you submit your Sitemap to the popular search engines like Google,Yahoo and MSN, make sure that your URL's are user friendly and easy to remember. URLs that are long with tracking id's and session id's might reduce the chance of user selecting the URL. Google also reduces the page rank for URL's with multiple query string parameters.

So we need a way to rewrite the URL from,

For e.g: www.ezsmartads.com/products/productlist.aspx?id=1&store=yes&cat=2&name=sem

to www.ezsmartads.com/products/sem.aspx

With an open source library called URL Rewriter you can achieve this in ASP.NET.

I will cover a sample in my next blog.
