RE: Rename index.php or keyword in URL?posted in On-Page Optimization
No, that's not what I mean. I am concerned that it will be seen as duplicate within my site, not compared to another site.

the home page (index)

copy of homepage, but renamed to /tulips-amsterdam
In all the 'home' buttons of the site you point back to www.example.com/tulips-amsterdam instead of pointing to / or www.example.com. Will that be seen as duplicate within the site and would it be harmfull?

RE: Rename index.php or keyword in URL?posted in On-Page Optimization
OK thanks. One final question:
I saw a site (good scoring on that keyword) where they did this: The home button was not pointing to / but to /tulips-amsterdam.
The only thing I can imagine is that there are two exactly the same pages: index, where you will land at www.example.com and a copy of index, renamed to tulips-amsterdam. It seems to work very good. But wil there be a risk to get penalized for duplicate content?

RE: Rename index.php or keyword in URL?posted in On-Page Optimization
No, /amsterdam/ contains no page.
The CMS needs a 'container', like 'pages'
So it would be: www.example.com/pages/tulips-amsterdam
To get rid of that 'pages' I thought it might be an idea to rename 'pages' to 'amsterdam'. The result is that every URL contains the keyword 'amsterdam'. But I wonder what will be better:
www.example.com/amsterdam/tulips
OR
www.example.com/pages/tulips-amsterdam
www.example.com/tulips-amsterdam
In the last option the 'pages' container name has stripped with htaccess

Rename index.php or keyword in URL?posted in On-Page Optimization
It is important for me to get good search results for keyword + city name
For instance: tulips amsterdam
What would be better: renaming index.php or adding the cityname to the URL?
www.example.com/amsterdam/tulips
OR
