  1. Welcome to my presentation on Search Engine Friendly URL’s in Joomla!
  2. Firstly let’s explain what we mean by Search Engine Friendly URL’s. Joomla, being a dynamic Content Management System requires the URL of the content you’re viewing to be constructed “dynamically” – based on what you have clicked on. Static sites have predefined filenames – index.htm, contacts.htm and so forth. A dynamic database system cannot do this, as you’re pulling dynamic items from the database each time you view anything on the site. This is where the ugly URL’s come in – you can see on these examples that the URL is comprised of the “BASE URL”, followed by the “BASE FILE” (index.php) with a whole load of other bits and pieces depending on what you happen to be viewing. The first URL, for example, is for a content item #27 in category #12. The second URL is displaying the component Expose, and is showing item #26 The third URL is showing the front page of the website. So, it makes sense that if we know what the item title is, and what the category/component name is, we can replace the item ID’s generated by Joomla! with the actual item name, or component name, or whatever we please! You can see in these URL’s that there have been different approaches to using this concept.
