SEOptimize Your WP Permalinks
This post isn’t just for WordPress permalinks but you can also use this tip on any other URL structures. Okay lets first go to the permalinks option in WordPress by logging into your WP Admin and then clicking on “Settings” and then on “Permalinks”. Are you there? Good.
There are lots of options for your permalinks. Like you could add the date, category, title, etc. I suggest using the one with description and keywords in it. And this format seems to do the job: /%category%/%postname%/
Well in simple words. That format will display the URLs like this: www.example.com/category/post-title/
Wondering why its better? Well its because search engines like keywords in the URLs, plus it would also help you get a better SERP.
Feel free to let me (and other readers) know if you’ve got something better in mind.

Yeah, it’s surprising how many buffoons use
http://example.com/?p=24. Ker-azy.I personally prefer to have it without the categories, sometimes, as well—like, just
/%postname%/.Reply
