Uniform Resource Locators
I love clean URLs. And I hate deadlinks.
Clean URLs
Clean URLs are those beautiful URLs which are pleasing. Looking at them is like looking at baby puppies. Here’s how I make them.
- No www although you’ll have issues with heroku
- No characters other than alphabets in the domain name
- URLs always end with /
- No URL ends with .html, .php or anything. Let them end with /
- Everything lower case
- No unnecessary subfolders. example.com/blog/post/march/post-title is bad. Try example.com/post-title/
Rule to always remember is: “Cool URLs do not change”
Here’s an example of a perfect URL: learnlearn.in/urls/
