URL format8.8

1 URLs are less than ideal

  • A significant proportion (20.0%) of web addresses (URLs) are less than ideal.
  • One URL is particularly hard to type or remember.
    • URLs using unusual characters (such as semi-colons or underscores), long numerals or complex phrasing are very difficult for real people to use or exchange. They also tend to be less favoured by search engines. Wherever possible ensure web addresses are 'human readable' - i.e. they should be easy to read, remember and type. In particular, avoid the use of obscure characters (including the underscore, which is not widely understood by non-technical users, or particularly memorable) and long numerals, e.g. example.com/23857984325. Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs.
