As a part of my new SEO Addiction, I am working on a database site in php. I do not want the pages to show up like http://www.somewebsite.org/index.php?parameter=7.

I bought my 2000 Toyota Tacoma new in 2001. It had sat on the lot for a year because it was a 4 cylinder 4×4 but I didn’t care. It was just what I wanted and overall I have been very happy.
The one exception to the truck and from what I hear, Toyotas [...]
