CI Unique URL in Google - El Forum - 11-22-2009

[eluser]CI Coder[/eluser]
Hey guys,

I'm currently working on an application that will be translated in a few languages -- 3 to start with. My problem is that my client wants that each page be indexed in Google with its own unique URL in such a way that the English version of page X has a different URL than the Spanish version of the same page. The way I have it set up now, the URL's look like http://www.domain.com/controller/function. The language can be changed via POST from a drop-down menu on the page, but the URL remains the same for all languages.

I know there are quite a few options here, but I would like to see if there is a best one since this is my first time dealing with this issue in CI. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

CI Coder

You might just redirect each domain with a 301 redirection policy in .htaccess.
Just google how it works, I think this should be fine.

Any another ideas are welcome!

Try the URI Language Identifier. (see my signature)
