Mod Rewrite HTML

On a new site im developing (tied to Design247) I really want and it would obviously help with getting the new site indexed is to have the page laid out in directory instead of just .php.

the layouts i would like are below:


example.com/portfolio/{template_name}

OR

example.com/portfolio/{template_name}.html

And for the other pages like about and contact would be:

example.com/aboutus

example.com/contact

Is this possible without having to do each and every page individually using mod_rewrite or is there a much easier way to do this?

Thanks

 

If it's on a vbulletin forum, you can install vbseo and take care of all those. Otherwise, I'd say you'll have to setup a line in htaccess for each page you want to rewrite.

 

No its just for a website, No forum software.

 

Use Wordpress?

 

I already have the full design for HTML from ThemeForest.
