Does it help your ranking? Does it hurt the ranking? Does Google even pay attention to the keywords in the file names? And actually, I was confused and wondering about it myself. So, I decided to do some testing of my own, with one of my own websites, and I’ll tell you some interesting facts that I’ve found with my own experience.

With the Analytics SEO project management tool that we use (www.analyticsseo.com) we are able top keep track of our clients position and evolution through an ongoing process. I hope it helps to you too. Cheers, Meri Nice post Tony,

My blog http://www.healthydietweightloss.com has been optimized for the keyword phrase "healthy diet weight loss" and is now, after a few months, on page 1 of the search results pages on Google for that search term. Proofs a point! :) I have also learned that it can make a big difference in your natural search engine rankings if you have your keywords in you blogs or websites url, or in your post extensions.
