I am not certain about this but I think that from a SEO perspective, it would be better if the URL namespace was flat.
A flat URL namespace means the navigation structure is not part of the page name. This means a page could participate in or be dropped out of several navigation/menu structures without affecting any local or external pages referencing them. It also means that pages could be dragged/dropped and reordered between directories. For example, given the following radiant file structure root |- A | |- B | | |- C | |- D |- E The pages would be referenced as follows http://localhost:3000/a http://localhost:3000/b http://localhost:3000/c http://localhost:3000/d http://localhost:3000/e However it is important that Radiant still know the parent/child relationships so that navigational menus could still be built. For example, given http://localhost:3000/c the <r:if_ancestor_or_self> tag would identify both A and B as parents which would allow the navigational menus and breadcrumbs to be build properly.
