creating a folder inside a website...

I was told I needed to do this:

The files are all in one folder causing the url to display as
http://myrtlebeachsouth.com/myrtle-beac … kages.html for example.

Each keyword/page/category needs to be in a folder with its own index page so url displays:
http://myrtlebeachsouth.com/myrtle-beach-golf-packages

Is there a tutorial that can help me do this?

If I understand you, all you do is make a folder called myrtle-beach-golf-packages and inside of that folder, you need an index.html page which would be the same as myrtle-beach-golf-packages.html.

One thing to note is if you do that, you need to adjust all image and css references to include a ../ so that everything displays correctly.

Scott, that raises a question. Is it better to have relative or complete addresses?

I always use relative paths. The reason is if you refer to the SSL topic, if all your links were hard-coded with http:// you would have to update all links to use https. With a relative path, nothing needs to be changed.
