If you're going that deep then make very sure that ALL of the items in that directory are very well grouped for the directory. HoF/forums/coldfusion/cf-talk/message.cfm HoF/forums/coldfusion/cf-community/message.cfm HoF/forums/flex/flex-jobs/message.cfm
ColdFusion and Flex are two types of forums. There will be nothing in that or any sub-directory that is not forums related. ColdFusion is a category of forums. There will be no Flex or other non-ColdFusion forums in that subdirectory. CF-Talk will only have messages from CF-Talk, which is a ColdFusion specific forum. Each subdirectory is a very specific subset of the directory above it. You really (really, really) have to be sure if you want to go beyond 1 or even 2 subdirectories. Another note is to always have the case of your urls the same in all places. CF-Talk and CF-talk and cf-talk are all different things. My preference is to lowercase EVERY url on my site and have a small script that will make sure every visit to the site is on a lowercased url. Same for domain prefix. Every visit will be redirected to www.hof.com if it is only hof.com. -- Michael Dinowitz On Sat, Feb 13, 2010 at 10:51 PM, Matthew Smith <chedders...@gmail.com> wrote: > >>Descriptive sub-directories are good things.
