Question Google's ratings of pages versus folders

Does Google rate this:

www.foo.com/page.html

Any different/more/less important than this:

www.foo.com/page/

I know with URLs like:

www.foo.com/folder/folder/folder/folder/etc/

...it does make a difference.

I am speaking specifically of one folder versus one page.

Thanks.

well the only thing that will happen with the folder is possibly give you another key term, before you have a index file. If think that if there were any diffrence in the rankings it would be minute.

It's almost a challenge between how many key words are in the folder versus how many are in the filename of the page.

Thank you for responding but I am not sure this really answers the question. I also think you are sharing your opinion rather than stating what you know to be factual.

The "folder" is a URL in the same way any other URL is, "page" or otherwise.

Anyway, "/folder/" is the same as "/folder/index.html" from the web server's perspective.

My question is connected with Google's importance/ranking of URLs within a website's navigational hierarchy.
