Magic SEO URL vs Ultimate SEO URL vs SEO_G

[yellow1912]

Good point, I shall think about that.
Something like this is possible as well:

http://www.site.com/main_page/product_info/products_id/846-new_mouse_pad/zenid/268a880d7asdqwdax12214e4c5266a0

Notice how the name goes after the products_id? It can go before or after, doesnt really matter, the point is that it will be there. Does it satisfy you know?
Still, it wouldnt look as neat as Magic SEO, for instance a link to a category will look like this:

http://www.site.com/main_page/index/cPath/jewelry-9
instead of
http://www.site.com/jewelry-9

Again, this is for the sake of simplicity. But unlike magic SEO, this will work for virtually all links, all mods, not only the one built in Magic SEO which is very limited.

I agree the point is to clean up the url. One huge advantage of using the names instead of numbers is in Google Analytics. Many reports use the url of the page. Obviously the product and categtory number are of little use if you can't memorize them all. Using names makes it easy. I like easy.

Yes, I think that would be good. I'd put the name first (just a personal preference). As you say, it's a simple approach but I prefer simple. While I like Magic SEO and it's easy, this is a simpler approach. Big advantage.

If you create something, I'd love to give it a try.

I can't really restore my backup since the installation since the store is live and I have customer data since the installation. I removed/restored the files to the original versions. I need to know what tables were affected. Is there and sql update I can run to remove the changes made by the SEO install?

I take it that you are talking about Ultimate SEO mod. You should check the support thread of that mod, or you can open the package, look at the code and see what it does.
Anyway, this topic is about comparing the pros and cons of each mod, and is not a support thread.

New Magic SEO URL for ZenCart update is available (1.0.16).

Check: www.magic-seo-url.com/updates/

Normally I don't announce new versions on public forums, but this version comes with significant performance boost and tons of other improvements. Update is recommended, but not required.

Some nice new features there, keep up the good work.

Since there is no change log, does anyone know what changes were included in the newest release?

Thanks!

Change logs can be found at recently launched Support forum http://www.magic-seo-url.com/board/ where you can also discuss Magic SEO URL and SEO in general.
