CMS with SEO Urls as standard

Hi all,

Do you know if any CMS provider offer seo urls as standard?

It seems to me that Joomla is not offering this, which is really hard to understand.

Any of the others?

I need it standard as Im not very good with the technical stuff (I run a forum using phpbb3 as well, where I was looking into the same functionality, but had to give up as I didnt understand the installation procedure for the mod... ;-)

A lot of people rate Drupal for SEF URLs.

But if you like Joomla then how about using the sh404SEF extension?

 

this is standard in v1.5 of joomla. from the admin panel go to Site > Global Configuration > SEO Settings > Search Engine Friendly URLs (yes)

 

That's correct but Joomla 1.5's SEF URLs still aren't quite *that* friendly... Joomla 1.5 is better at SEF URLs than Joomla 1.0 but still appends IDs to the paths which is better than it used to be but still leaves room for improvement.

If you can handle paths in the form of /section-name-sectionID#/category-name-categoryID#/articleID#-article-alias then that may be the level of SEF that you require. Otherwise use a SEF extension to take it further.

 

Depends on what you mean with SEO urls.

If you are looking for clean URLs you have it with joomla: site.com/category/view etc.....

If you are looking for keywords in the URLs you can also do it with Joomla: site.com/keyword/keyword2 etc...

SEO with Joomla is easy.

 

SEF has been improved in the current v1.5.5. per their site:

 

Ah, I didn't know that. That's very strange as I've got a 1.5.5 development site which still dumps the IDs in my paths... maybe there's a config/setting I'm missing to switch them off?

 

Im currantly using the standard joomla sef urls, I tried the Sh404sef extention but it gave problems with logging in .

 

I was using Joomla, but I am using wordpress as a CMS...
