Local language for folders in URLs?
-
Hi, We're working on a e-commerce project that will be launched in several countries.
My question is this: Are there any advantages to name the URL-folders in the local language?
Ie.
International site:
www.domain.com/product/adidas-model-x
www.domain.com/category/adidas
Norwegian site:
www.domain.no/produkt/adidas-model-x
www.domain.no/kategori/adidas
As i like things tidy, I guess that would also mean we would have to rename the cart URLs and so on.
ie.
International site:
www.domain.com/checkout
Norwegian site:
www.domain.no/kasse

How long does google index old urls?
Hey guys, We are currently in the process of redesigning a site but in two phases as the timeline issues. So there will be up to a 4 week gap between the 1st and 2nd set of redirects. These urls will be idle 4 weeks before the phase content is ready. What effect if any will this have on the domain and page authority? Thanks Rob

How do I 301 Redirect a complete folder?
Hi, I am want to delete a folder and all the contents. I then need to redirect anyone that is trying to reach a file in that folder to another page on my site. example: www.mydomain.com/folder/ (contains 50 pages) I want to delete the folder and all 50 pages. So if someone tries to reach www.mydomain.com/folder/page1.php the redirect would take them to a specific page on my site. Doing this to clean up old content. How would I do this on the .htaccess? I have redirected a page but not a folder. Thanks in advance! Force7
