 +===== Definition =====
 +
 +The **URL** (**U**niform **R**esource **L**ocator) is the address of a [[website]] or [[web page]] as it's displayed in the browser'​s address bar. The URL of a website consists of the [[domain]], the [[TLD]], the name of the folders on the server and the file name of the [[HTML]] document.

 +===== Importance for SEO =====
 +
 +When a user visits a website, the URL can contain either a number of characters without any meaning, or - if the webmaster invested a little time and thought in the website - clear names without a lot of numbers and special characters.

 +Single words should be separated by hyphens.
