Does the position of keywords in the URL affect ranking?


On February 26, 2009, Google software engineer Matt Cutts collected questions on Google Moderator and answered many of them on video. Adeel from Manchester, UK asked: Does the position of keywords in the URL have a significant impact: example.com/keyword/London is better than example.com/London/keyword?

    This is a reply to a URL domain name – I think Matt’s a lie about it. Google free poker money. On the front page of each site (dot) COM is 30 days except for the free poker money to back 10k noprescriptionxanax (DOT) in the two corporations to carry back and Google is prescribed Xanax, and the same # 1 holds the position. I beliebe Matt is not the whole story. In many cases, he says all over the web is much to discredit.
