I am a bit stuck on the design of my seo friendly urls for mvc....Take for example the following url: http://myapp/venues/resturants.aspx?location=central&orderBy=top-rated
With my mvc app i have mapped it as follows:
http://myapp/venues/list/resturants/central/top-rated
{controller}/{action}/{category}/{location}/{order}
Now the only problem is that location and order are optional...so it should be possible to submit a request like: http://myapp/venues/list/resturants/top-rated . This proves to be a problem when the request hits the controller action, the location parameter has picked up "top-rated", naturally.
Any suggestions? I' am considering using explicit querystrings to handle more than one parameter but this is really my last option as i dont want to sacrifice SEO too much.
Has anyone eles run into such dilemmas? And how did you handle it?
Thanks in advance!
