Ranked #25,287 in Computers & Electronics, #477,083 overall

Why are readable URL and Links important?

When a link is sent in email or instant message, it must have a readable url. In our busy world, people want to have an idea about the content of the linked page even before they click. A readable url gives you a quick summary and lets you decide if you want to click that link.

Search engines have a special place in their heart for web addresses that have the exact keywords the user is searching for. Having important keywords in the address, page title and providing relevant content are all important pieces of the SEO puzzle.

People have different criteria for urls that they send around. Some people require tiny urls - something that takes up the least amount of space. This is good for places like twitter where each character counts. Other people want the addresses they send or receive to have readable urls. One service that helps you generate a url from any page with just one click is ReadLink.Info.
