Search Engine Optimization for ColdFusion Websites

Is a ColdFusion website SEO friendly? This is perhaps the most commonly asked question these days when it comes to ColdFusion Applications.

Few days back one of our esteemed clients was wrestling with few things in his ColdFusion Website. Although his site was 12 years old and it was ranking significantly for few of its keywords, the page rank for home page was only 3.

• While the lengthy URL that is generated does not create any problem while optimizing the site, it’s always better to go for clean URLs’.
• Yes, the the ampersand and the string creates SEO problems. The URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set. And if they contain characters outside the ASCII set, it’s mandatory for them to be converted into a valid ASCII format.
• When using unsafe ASCII characters it’s necessary to replace those characters with a “%” followed by two hexadecimal digits.In this way, an “&” is %26 and not & which is the standard HTML character set.It’s always better to exclude the & sign and just go for something like this – /5-star-hotel-near-beach/
• You can use .htaccess or any other feature to create a clean URL something like this – your-domain.com/store/category-name/product-name-id/
• Yes, Google considers those two variations as completely different URLs and may even ban both of them for duplicate content.
• If the content of the website does not change that often then Sitemap Generator can be a good option.
