A lot of people talki about URL structure (putting keywords in the URLs). However, theres not a lot of good information about HOW Urls work from a technical perspective.). I'm finding that as I advance in SEO, knowing stuff like this is very important. I just bought a book on about the HTTP Protocol (very technical). It's really opening my eyes to things. It provides a cohesive structure to the randomness you see in SEO blogs and articles. Understanding response messages and codes flows into redirects, which flows into htaccess. I think that's missing in the SEO resources because there's a lot of leaves but it's hard to find the branches. I couldn't agree more with your post. I've been taking the scattered leaves approach, now it's time to focus on the branches! Creating a framework for analyzing the different aspects of SEO is key. Hi Leslie,

I'll update that for The SEO BrainTrust. Thanks for the idea :-). Actually, I did a video some years ago titled “The first half of linking” that was precisely that tutorial on URLs.

For a non techie like me, it would be nice to have a resource for technical questions. I don't think anyone in SEO has provided a straight forward tutorial on how URLs work. Is this covered in the SEO Braintrust? If often have similar questions regarding URL’s. For a non techie like me, it would be nice to have a resource for technical questions.

Is this covered in the SEO Braintrust?
