To slash or not to slash In linking....
High Rankings Search Engine Optimization Forum: Ron Carnell "was appalled to hear Yahoo rep, Jon Glick, say they purposely strip the trailing slash off search results because 'that's the way most surfers would type it.' MSN chooses to not display the trailing slash in their SERPs, but nonetheless adds it when implementing their redirect. Only Google, of the big three, both displays the slash to visitors and uses it in linking."Ref: Apache 1.3 URL Rewriting Guide
