Now, let us look at the URL of the Level 3 subcategory 'Ballpoint Pens' page. We are only interested in what comes after the domain name. Here, so this is the string: /Office-Products/Writing/Ballpoint-Pens

Notice ithe the category structure: Level 1/Level 2/Level 3

This SEO URL string has been is generated from our the default URL rule for category. It is in fact the standard default rule. You can change it this rule to something else if you wish. HoweverHere, we will use it to explain rule-makingcreation.


When you access the Rule Maintenance page, for each rule, you will see a bunch of symbols like this. Each pill-shaped item is a rule part.

Rules and rule parts

IMPORTANT:

  • An Internet address text is case sensitive for everything after the domain name. This means that search engines will not recognise 'https://bpduat.commerce.vision/Office-Products/Writing/Ballpoint-Pens' and 'https://bpduat.commerce.vision/office-products/writing/ballpoint-pens' as the same URL. So you should keep your SEO URL text consistent in letters being upper or lower case.
  • The string should not have spaces between words. Use a hyphen instead. Example: '/Office-Products', not '/Office Products'. TIP - This system automatically adds a hyphen when a space is detected.
