I have a website that contains ‘items’, which have an ID and title. They are divided into categories.

Category indexes are viewed at URL’s like

example.com/tutorials example.com/maps 

What would be the best URL structure for the items themselves, from a SEO point of view and just semantically in general?

example.com/tutorials/12/Make+a+php+site example.com/maps/29/Inside+the+moon 

or

example.com/12/Make+a+php+site example.com/29/Inside+the+moon 

The category addition in the former is actually unnecessary. I only need the ID to find an item. However, I somehow feel the former is better.

What do you think?

    The categories are very important SEO-relevant keywords, it would be better to have them in the URL, even if they are not needed.
