Hi all: The following is an Search Engine Optimization tip that is fairly common in most of the SEO checklists that I have read. Hyphens - Use hyphens ( - ) and not underscores ( _ ) to separate words in directory and file names. Most search engines parse a hyphen like a reader would parse a space. Using underscores makes what_would_you_do look like whatwouldyoudo to most search engines. You should definitely separate words in your URLs. Let''s say I create a small test app. # rails test create a controller, edit the controller, create a template, and run the server # script/generate controller WebResources # do the manual editing stuff here. # script/server webrick To access the page: http://localhost:3000/web_resources/index Works fine. I''m wondering if there is a way to reference the above URL using hyphens to make the spiders happy?? http://localhost:3000/web-resources/index Any thoughts??
