Thanks for the nice comments.. :)

I know this is slightly off topic but just thought I'd point out that using static URIs with keywords in them comes way down the list of SEO optimisation factors, content is the all-important factor.

However, all evidence is indeed that once content is sorted, having keywords in static URIs results in higher rankings in search engines that the use of dynamic URIs.

The difference is tiny compared to that offered by having the correct content on pages so the majority of effort should be concentrated on the content first!

Hope that helps anyone interested!

All the best...
