Use Custom Url Feature

There is a new feature you may play with “Custom URLS”  it really helps by allowing you to make the page appear off the root of the site, with no noise words, a highly targeted url that search engines love.  We already do a basic url rewrite like below:
http://www.yourstore.com/store/c/24-Changing-Pads-Mattress-Pads.htm
but with custom URLs it can be even simpler like:
http://www.yourstore.com/Mattress-Pads.htm

Notice the text at the very very bottom….that is very very good to have and it is a spot to put text that can be not attractive or fit as well with your theme but still provide great search engine fodder.  They also place text at the top to describe their manufacturers and categories which is invaluable search engine text.  Bottom line, its all about content…more content = better rankings.
