What are the best urls?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Good afternoon. I want to ask a question that interests many webmasters. Which addresses are better indexed:
Long ones, for example: mysite.ru/article/1152_Plitka-keramicheskaya-i-ee-raznovidnosti/
Or short ones, for example: mysite.ru/a/1152/
I didn’t find an exact answer on the Internet, many say that with seo point of view, a long address is better, others vice versa, which is short. I would like to hear the opinion of practitioners/professionals. What URLs do you use on your projects and what results have you achieved?

Answer 1

1) All are indexed.
2) Those with a phrase are ranked better, preferably a full search query.
3) at the same time, nothing prevents you from making the url shorter, for example, removing the unnecessary word artcle and deleting the article ID, making the slug unique.
4) read google. Where it is written in plain text that it is desirable to replace the underscore character with a hyphen.

Answer 2

And on those and on those the results are good, it depends on the site and not on the address. The address is a hammer, if the hands are crooked, then it doesn’t matter which hammer. Therefore, make such an address what is more convenient for you, more comfortable, easier

Answer 3

The search is conducted both in content and in tags and URLs.
Remember that long URLs are not always easy to copy.
Therefore, something is needed for the PS - one thing and for users - another.
Such URLs are called canonical and are marked with a special canonical tag.
1. For PS - we do it in UTF-8 and in the form of a long sentence:
domain.com/Reviews/Ceramic tiles and its varieties/
For PS that do not yet understand Russian UTF-8: you can do the same in transliteration (add one more canonical view of the same page ) :
domain.com/Obzory/Plitka-keramicheskaya-i-ee-raznovidnosti/ .html
3. You can add another language after the domain to make it immediately
clear
:
humanly: domain.com/ru/plitka-keramicheskaya-i-ee-raznovidnosti.html
Total: you need 3 different canonical views of one unique page on your resource.
The rest - the PS will take from the page tags one of these 3 links.
