SEO Tools - URL Rewriting

Static URLs are known to be better than dynamic URLs for a number of reasons:
Static URLs typically rank better in search engines.
Search engines are known to index the content of dynamic pages much more slowly than that of static pages.
Static URLs look friendlier to end users.
