SEO friendly url's usually are known around the net as keyword URL's to make them seem static however search engines are cleaver and dont have much trouble with dynamic URL's these days you can see examples of Keyword URLs here at Qdoos and examples of Dynamic URLs over at DP

The main difference is that qdoos URL's are readable to humans

On today's Internet, database driven or dynamic sites are very popular. Unfortunately the easiest way to pass information between your pages is with a query string. In case you don't know what a query string is, it's a string of information tacked onto the end of a URL after a question mark.

So, what's the problem with that? Well, most search engines (with a few exceptions - namely Google) will not index any pages that have a question mark or other character (like an ampersand or equals sign) in the URL. So all of those popular dynamic sites out there aren't being indexed - and what good is a site if no one can find it?

BTW marysunitha you're spamming above
