We've developed a dynamic web application which uses URLs such as product.cfm?id=42
but our marketing team says we should use search friendly URLs and put our keywords into the URLs (so it would be product-name.cfm
instead). Our developers tell us this will cost more money and take additional time. Is it worth the effort? How important is this to the search engines and will it impact our rankings?
