Create easier, "friendlier" URLs for those that want to link to my content

by ,dArkRay July 19th 2013, 1:56 pm

Hi! I would like to know if thereÂ´s anyway to create friendlier URLs for my forum.

I will give an example:

This is a URL of my forum:
http://www.mewtwoproject.net/t5-tudo-sobre-os-nomes-de-utilizador

I would like it to be something like:
http://www.mewtwoproject.net/comunicados/tudo-sobre-os-nomes-de-utilizador

It have more carachters but I think is better and can lead to better crawling by Search Engines

So if your not talking about forumotion what are you talking about? your host is your host and forumotion is forumotion.
You can not transfer any data from forumotion to another host or any other host data to forumotion.

So if this is not forumotion related then what exactly is it your asking? i don't understand? please explain more.

Hi,

Would this perhaps help, shorten links?

If its not working then you'd have to ask avacweb as they are the ones who created the code and they can provide more in depth help.

Sounds like her wants a domain URL. If so you have to pay for a domain name somewhere for a domain service of your choosing and then you can see what shorter names are available.
