Do keywords in the URL help to get higher ranked?

Do you think is a good idea to add something into the url like below:

http://www.zam.it/home.php?id_autore=55 ... mine+Abate

"&autore=Carmine+Abate" are the keywords I added into the url.

I am new at this but from my experience, I think it would be a good idea as this happens to my webpage now. When I type the keywords in the google search as my name - Rashmi Shamanna, my site is not listed but when I type it with no space between my first and last names - rashmishamanna, it shows my site. Probably Gbot lists links thru the names on the webaddress. I think it may be a good idea to use the keywords in the website address.

it helps if the search engine indexes your page as well.

in your case, the search engine was able to index your page

Some years ago, this help a lot to get relevance on pages. It's less and less right. But it's still a bit.

Hello,
Keyword in url helps a lot. Choose your main keyword and get a url reltated to it.

I dont think this will fetch you result.
http://www.zam.it/home.php? d_autore=556&autore=Carmine+Abate

URL like this will help
http://zam-carmine-abate.com

I have more than 1700 authors reviewed. It could be cool to create a website for any of them

yes it is a big help

Hi,
Zam.it is completely in italian language, so i could not make out what is written there. But I can smell that its all about books.
So my advice about url would be something like this
http://www.zambookstore.it
or zamonlinebookstore.it
ww.zam-bookstore.it
if you guys cannot get into your brain then i dont know in which language i should say.
No more foolish suggestions

it helps a great deal to have the keywords in the url. ideally is not to use ? or =, and the url not to be too long.

i have seen very good forum where they convert the php url in the url containing the title of the post+id
