Default Selecting File Name?

Hi Everyone,

I just added a 6 pages having to do with Books. All pages are still PR=0 but are being indexed.

I am #1 for Human Factors Books but am trying to increase the keywords: Ergonomics and User Interface Design.

My files are now named on the order of http://www.usernomics.com/human-fact...ce-design.html .

Would there be an SEO benefit to re-naming the files to something like http://www.usernomics.com/books-user...ce-design.html ?

Thanks a lot.

It will be a very slight boost if any.
I would concentrate on other factors because it's very probable that this new name won't change your ranks.

I think you are right. But what if you want to push the keyword ergonomics? Would either of these benefit SEO for the word Ergonomics?

---------/human-factors-books-ergonomics.html

vs.

---------/books-ergonomics.html

Thanks,

Bob

Yes, from a logical point of view it makes sense to change the file name.

But is it worth it from a SERPS point of view?

Thanks,

Bob
