Currently I am using Dreamweaver and have a root folder: www.mulberrywood.com with an index file directly below it.

I also have all my various files in folders as opposed to directly below the root like my index file.


As an example I have one regular text htm file and 3 jpeg files in the "about us" folder. www.mulberrywood.com/aboutus

I set the site up this way in anticipation of down the road having many files. However, a friend has told me that for SEO reasons I should do two things:

1) Remove my jpegs from the subject folders and put them all in an image folder. (currently I am not using an image folder)

2) Get rid of my subject folders and put all my current files on the same level as my index file.

This would result in a long flat list of files within DW in the Asset area. At the moment I could do this and be ok, but in the future I will have hundreds if not thousands of files.


Any advice out there on what a best folder hierarchy should look like?

Tutorials?

Screenshots?

Thank you very much!
