In computer field every information or data is stored in certain files. if we will talk about the defination then A computer file is a computer resource for recording data(Raw information) discretely in a computer storage device

Why SEO and file name are important. 

One of the simplest methods to improve your search engine optimization is to look at the way you name your files.  Just try giving any keyword in Google search engine and you will find file names highlighted with the keyword you have given. It proves that your file name should have appropriate keywords.

File Name Example

learn-seo-online.html = good one
learn_seo_online.html= not good for SEO

Filenames with underscores are not a good option. It means whenever  you will give file name to any file of html or file you are uploading to website  use hyphens rather than underscores. 

File Naming Style

• The filename should be short and descriptive so that search engine will easily understand that and whenever you will open a page it will be readable.
• It is good to use same keywords in a filename as well as in page title same reason is here that search engine will easily understand that.
• Do not use filenames such as seo.htm or job.htm as they are generic or not soo meaningful. Use actual service name in your file name such as learn-seo-online.html.
• Separate the keywords with hyphens rather than underscores.
• Try to use 2 keywords if possible.
