Hi Alan and Jordan,
Firstly, Alan, thanks for raising this question as I am currently in a similar predicament and was wondering if Jordan, you could provide some insight?
For my website, which is the site for a magazine I work for, the current URL structure is www.website.com/article-title
On first glance, I thought it must be that we would have to re-structure the URLs to include the category structure, for example... www.website.com/category/sub-category/article-title
However, upon deeper investigation, I've seen that we do actually have breadcrumbs enabled therefore google is indexing and following the structure from this.
With this in mind, is it actually worth re-structuring the URLs to include these categories as it will take a long time to organise and implement.
Obviously, thinking in terms of UX, it is a must-do, but I'm just trying to weigh up the pro's and cons with this..
Appreciate your help,
Leigh
