Having a directory names prefix helps enormously when maintaining multiple web sites. Many web sites have a confused illogical jumble of directory names, and many of those are far too long. Good planing before going live will subsequently save lots of time and effort. Keep the public directory structure plain, simple and logical. One never ever needs URL's exceeding 80 characters. Avoid things like this http://www/domain.com/public-communications/press-and-public/press-releases/press-release-12345-man-hits-dog-in-childrens-park.html and http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3615099/Outrage-directed-parents-Harambe-gorilla-s-senseless-death-four-year-old-son-fell-enclosure-led-zoo-officials-fatally-shoot-animal.html If anyone has to type-in one of your URLs they will definitely appreciate short URLs where there is less chance of making spelling mistakes. -- Regards, Paul.
