I don't want to track external links. I just want to know where they go when they leave. Is that possible? Can I do this with a cookie?

Url folder structureposted in Technical SEO
I work for a travel site and we have pages for properties in destinations and am trying to decide how best to organize the URLs
basically we have our main domain, resort pages and we'll also have articles about each resort so the URL structure will actually get longer:
A. domain.com/main-keyword/state/city-region/resort-name
_ domain.com/family-condo-for-rent/orlando-florida/liki-tiki-village__ domain.com/main-keyword-in-state-city/resort-name-feature _
_ domain.com/family-condo-for-rent/orlando-florida/liki-tiki-village/kid-friend-pool_B. Another way to structure would be to remove the location and keyword folders and combine. Note that some of the resort names are long and spaces are being replaced dynamically with dashes.
ex. domain.com/main-keyword-in-state-city/resort-name
_ domain.com/family-condo-for-rent-in-orlando-florida/liki-tiki-village__ domain.com/main-keyword-in-state-city/resort-name-feature_
_ domain.com/family-condo-for-rent-in-orlando-florida/liki-tiki-village-kid-friend-pool_Question: is that too many folders or should i combine or break up? What would you do with this? Trying to avoid too many dashes.

RE: META ATTRIBUTES - DOES ORDER MATTER!?!posted in Web Design
So I just asked this same question here because I couldn't find any answers from Mozzers on this topic. This was from 2 years ago. I've been finding conflicting advice on META order. It seems like best practice would be to have title before keywords. AM I wrong?

RE: 301 Redirects in subfoldersposted in Technical SEO
I'm with you Jane. It's not that much effort and it avoids any confusion or 404s.

RE: 301 Redirects in subfoldersposted in Technical SEO
what if someone bookmarked a page that you changed the URL for? That page might not have any links but it can still receive traffic.
It is my recommendation that if one is doing a massive redirect that all pages should have a rule written for it. Why risk a 404?

RE: 301 Redirects in subfoldersposted in Technical SEO
Alan, there is no value in redirecting pages without external links?
I am in the process of implementing a massive 301 redirect project as we are changing the URL structure of our site. Our site has been indexed fully by Google for quite some time but most pages do not have external links pointing to them. So if someone searches a KW that triggers a deep linked page, why would I not redirect that page to its new URL?
