AEM as CS | adding landing page instead of country code

AEM as Cloud service

Currently our content structure starts with  /content/website/ca/en.html and /content/website/ca/fr.html (and these are the landing page)
           
And page structure follows as below 

/content/website/ca/en
/content/website/ca/en/products
/content/website/ca/en/users
/content/website/ca/en/xyz/abc

/content/website/ca/fr
/content/website/ca/fr/products
/content/website/ca/fr/users
/content/website/ca/fr/xyz/abc

  We have received a suggestion to have a landing page instead of  using country code  as landing page as shown below

/content/website/ca/en/landing.html

And update  the structure as given below

/content/website/ca/en/landing
/content/website/ca/en/landing/products
/content/website/ca/en/landing/users
/content/website/ca/en/landing/xyz/abc

/content/website/ca/fr/landing
/content/website/ca/fr/landing/products
/content/website/ca/fr/landing/users
/content/website/ca/fr/landing/xyz/abc

Is it really required to update this manner ?

Thanks

Hi @georhe6 

Taxonomy can impact SEO, but in your case, I wouldn't recommend changing it—except for language-specific pages.

For example:

/content/website/ca/en/home  
/content/website/ca/en/products  
/content/website/ca/en/users  
/content/website/ca/en/xyz/abc

To serve the English content at the homepage level, you could:

• Create a new page, such as "home" or "landing", and configure it accordingly.

• Use rewrite rules to map /home to /en, ensuring a seamless experience without altering the existing taxonomy.
