When ranking search results, do google and yahoo take into account the path and html file name? I'm adding new copyrighted content for publishers and artists. I've decided to make the content into static html. The content is stored in a DB. I was wondering whether I should place and name the static html according to the DB's identification, or the actual publisher and artist name. For example, for publisher ID 1 and artist ID 5, which gets better ranking
1- URL www.mycompany.com /new/publisher/ 1/5/index7.html
or
2- URL www.mycompany.com /new/ publisher/ XYZStudios/ I_AM_A_FAMOUS_ARTIST/ page7.html

would be great if you can provide resources that cover this subject.
