Question: How to direct a url to load without typing in “.html” at the end?
I want people to be able to type in a web address like “www.seonspups.com/puppies” instead of “www.seonspups.com/puppies.html” .

How do I force the page to load without someone having to type “.html” at the end??? Right now, without it, it just goes to a 404.

Question: How do you make it so that the link doesn’t have a “.html” at the end?
On YouTube you can go to “My Videos” and it won’t have an html at the end.

.html is the file extension of an HTML document. Documents for computers are the same way – a .exe is an executable file, a .txt is a text file, a .png is a PNG image file. So, on the internet, a .php file is a web page coded in PHP. A .js file is a javascript file. A .asp is an ASP file. And so on.

You can’t change the file extensions of Youtube since it’s not your site, but if you have a website, you can make the file extensions anything you want depending on what it’s purpose is.

If a page doesn’t have a file extension, then the page is the index page, or home page, of a folder or the root directory. For example, on www.Yahoo.com, the full URL is actually www.yahoo.com/index.html. If you type that in your address bar, you’ll get the same thing. It’s hidden because it’s the home page.

You can have an index page of a folder, as well. So, if you have www.mysite.com/blah/index.html, www.mysite.com/blah/ is exactly the same thing.
