I want to create a SEO friendly page that contains dynamic information, but also has areas of information that are easily editable by HTML content editors (NOT programmers) outside of the normal development lifecycle (I'll call this content 'static' content). For example think of a product page that ha...

ASP.Net send loads of stuff to th...

As far as I can tell I shouldn't be using ÅÄÖ (somthing like they have no visual representation in ASCII??). So what is considered more SEO friendly? Replacing i.e. all "ä" with "a" or "ae"? (The CMS Umbraco replaces with ae and I'm leaning towards this). EDIT: Summary of how some Swedish sites does it: aftonbladet.se/ ä => a (http:...

Hello. I am writting my own small framework and I am going to implement friendly URLs there. mod_rewrite is great.
