I just spent 3 weeks changeing my urls to seo freindly.

So instead of being http://www.yoursite.com/goods%for%sale

to http://www.yoursite.com/goods-for-sale

but i have now noticed that the .html is missing from the end of the url

so instead of looking like

http://www.yoursite.com/goods-for-sale.html

that is seo freindly all i have is

http://www.yoursite.com/goods-for-sale

this is NOT good seo how do i get the links to show the .html at the end please.

Thank you

just did a site map and put it on web master tools not i got 500 errors

Sample
Paths don't match
We've detected that you submitted your Sitemap using a URL path that doesn't include the www prefix (for instance, http://example.com/sitemap.xml). However, the URLs listed inside your Sitemap do use the www prefix (for instance, http://www.example.com/myfile.htm).
as you see

co.uk/USA-State-Business-Databases <--------- no .htm or html at the end so google will not index the page.

so how can i get the . html to be at the end of the link

so now i got

URLs in Sitemap Sitemap Total: 500, Indexed: 0 <---------- This is not good

please can anyone hep

BTW. my .htaccess

has

# 1.To use URL Alias you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled.

# 2. In your opencart directory rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.

# For any support issues please visit: http://www.opencart.com

Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\?*$ index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]

and my php.ini has

magic_quotes_gpc = Off;
register_globals = off;
default_charset = UTF-8;
memory_limit = 64M;
max_execution_time = 18000;
max_upload_filesize = 100M;
safe_mode = Off;
mysql.connect_timeout = 20;
session.use_cookies = On;
session.use_trans_sid = Off;
session.gc_maxlifetime = 12000000;

Thank you

Ok here is the 3rd part as to my page set up

in products i have

In General in admin

Product Name: Aberdeenshire
Meta Tag Description: Aberdeenshire-County-Database

In Data i have

Model: Aberdeenshire
SEO Keyword: Aberdeenshire-County-Database

Thus my site link looks like

http://www.mysite.com/Aberdeenshire-Cou ... rdeenshire

i like it to look like

http://www.mysite.com/Aberdeenshire-Cou ... abase.html

The ?keyword=Aberdeenshire don't need to be there the .html needs to be there for google to index the site 100% correct.

So in genral the whole link needs to be

http://www.mysite.com/Aberdeenshire-Cou ... abase.html

and NOT

http://www.mysite.com/Aberdeenshire-Cou ... rdeenshire

Yeah, well, you're wrong. I don't even know what would give you such a silly idea. Google doesn't even format their own pages that way. Another day, another absurd SEO post I guess.

If this really bothers you you can manually add .html to the end of your product SEO URLs or see if this hack still works.

Because i dont like the urls to be like http://mysite.com/manufacter/product ; http://mysite.com/category/product and on the main page http://mysite.com/product - GOOGLE does not like duplicating pages. Could you help with this fix for the 1.4.7 version. I have allready fixed this problem in 1.4.0 but it was long ago and i see that there some new things added :)
Regards,
Martin Radev

Well Search engine friendly URLs. There are a few popular ways to pass information to your pages without the use of a query string, so that search engines will still index those individual pages.
