The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Friendly URL's; Underscores to Hyphens

Asked by jaztar in Internet Search Engine Optimization, Search Engines

Tags:

To date I have a number of URL's which contain underscores such as:
example.com.au/multiple_words.php

I would like to make some URL's search engine friendlier by using hyphens instead of underscores. For example:
example.com.au/multiple-words.php

URL's containing underscores are already indexed in Google, and some have been indexed for years.

1) With SEO in mind, would it be best to use redirects...
2) and what must I know if doing so?
3) At what point do I kill off page redirects?

Kindly awaiting your feedback and any other suggestions you may have related to this.
