urlrewrite

I just starting reading about SEO and realized that I should change my "GET" queries to / separated keywords for SEO purposes.

Here's my question:

I have a multi-select checkbox on my form, so my query string would be:

http://www.domainname.com/searchitem.html?cat[]=A&cat[]=B&cat[]=C&param1=p1&param2=p2

Whats the convention for handling this kind of queries? changing it to search/catA/catB/catC/p1/p2 doesn't seem right to me but i don't know what else to do

Thanks
