Hi! What do you think about naming your document exactly as user search for terms you are targeting
IE: user type "blue widgets" you name your doc: www.mysite.com/bluewidgets.htm
Does that work? Experiences about it?

Depends on the search engine, silverbytes. I think it helps more in Yahoo and MSN then it will in Google. But use dashes instead of underscores.

how about renaming pages? to change my underscores for dashes that will make my prior page unknown to google and other serps... I don't think that would be ok for ranks.

Oh, I thought you were talking about new pages. I would leave them. To be honest, I use underscores myself, even though I'm *supposed* to use dashes. I think dashes look a little spammy and I also think underscores are easier on the eyes. Total personal taste, of course.

I prefer underscores to dashes but I've heard before dashes has better performance. Naming my pages has it's coast... but if that lead to better performance I can take it.
