URL Structure

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 2:01 am

Hi Guys,

I have been away for several days but I am back. I missed this community. Nice to see you all.

I have a quick URL structure question for my site:

I am planning to add one sub-page under https://cryptocasinos.cc/cryptocurrency-casinos. It will be about Bitcoin Casinos as a sub-section.

Can you recommend me the best URL for it? I have 2 options.

1) cryptocasinos.cc/cryptocurrency-casinos/bitcoin

2) cryptocasinos.cc/cryptocurrency-casinos/bitcoin-casinos

Which one is better in terms of Google and User friendliness?

Thanks a lot in advance for your priceless thoughts.

Cheers

Google doesn’t smile upon the use of hyphens in domain names because it identifies and strongly correlates them with spammy behavior and decreases domain name readability and memorability. Personally, I would leave the hyphens out and go with option 2.

#2 the URL includes your primary keyword.

Thanks but isn't it "word stuffing" for the kw "casino"?

Cheers

Keyword stuffing typically refers to the content on the page but yes you don't want to over optimise every URL on your site either. You generally want to match URLs to page titles and it's not like every page title on your site is just going to be the primary keyword you're targeting on the page (well it shouldn't be!).

You have to add primary keyword in url.

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 6:36 am

Thanks but I have asked to add:

/bitcoin or /bitcoin-casinos ?

Because "casinos" word will be used for the third time.

Cheers

Your sub page category is "/cryptocurrency-casinos/", simply adding "/bitcoin" is enough.

You've used the kw "casinos" and "crypto" twice (2x), domain and sub page. I wouldn't risk adding "casinos" again.

I agree with you and will do it accordingly. Thanks

bitcoin/casinos would be best.. you dont want long url's either

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 2:56 pm

Hello wonderpunter

Thanks for your recommendation. I already made it as https://cryptocasinos.cc/cryptocurrency-casinos/bitcoin

as you know, I already had https://cryptocasinos.cc/cryptocurrency-casinos

and just added /bitcoin

I will not add any other folder to this url.

Is it fine?

Cheers!

Really nicely designed site. What theme is it on?

I have just opened your menu and some of the maik menus text is black against a black background making it impossible to read

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 3:36 pm

Thanks a lot for your kind words on the site. It is a paid theme namely "Voice" from "Meks".

Can you please kindly be more specific on the black text issue? Is it on mobile?

Thanks in advance

Hi, Yes when looking on mobile

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 3:42 pm

Hi again,

Thanks but I am checking with the emulator and could not see. Please recheck it here: https://mobiletest.me/iphone_5_emulat...yptocasinos.cc

Did you mention any other menu items on mobile?

Cheers

I think it's when you are on the page like this

**allaboutthebets** · 11 December 2018, 3:52 pm

Click on the menu dropdown and the text goes black

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 3:53 pm

I see. Thanks for the reminder. I just corrected it with red text for the active menu items. Can you recheck with clearing the cache please and share with me?

Thanks in advance

Still the same on incognito. May take a bit to update

**cryptocasinoscc** · 11 December 2018, 4:02 pm

I think so. This is what I see in the emulator now: https://mobiletest.me/iphone_5_emulat...yptocasinos.cc

red text over a black background for the active menu items links.
