I'm an apprentice digital marketer so I have very little knowledge of coding.
The agency that designed & developed my companies website has dropped off the face of the planet and cannot assist us.
The website uses (from what I can see) PHP, smarty and swift framework - http://www.candojobs.co.uk
Currently the URLs for a job post are displayed like this:
http://www.candojobs.co.uk/jobs/267/rq92159/project-manager-level-4
Is this harming our SEO? Could the URLs be in a better format?
If so, how can we change them? I have searched through all of the website .tpl and .php files and didn't find anything. I had a quick look at the htaccess file and I saw this:
# Recruiters
RewriteRule ^recruiters/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-@%]+)?$ doindex.php?page=recruiters&id=$1&companyName=$2 [QSA,L]
# News
RewriteRule ^news/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-@%]+)?$ doindex.php?page=news&id=$1 [QSA,L]
# Jobs
RewriteRule ^jobs/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)/?$ doindex.php?page=jobs&id=$1 [QSA,L]**
Could this have something to do with the way the URLs are handled?
If anyone has any idea about this as I confused myself just writing this it would be greatly appreciated.
