Permalink WordPress

By default, WordPress gives you dynamic URL for your post like “http://yourdomain.com/?p=ID-NUMBER”. The best SEO permalink structure is to have your post appears with ‘post title’ in the URL.

This will looks something like this: “http://yourdomain.com/post-title/category/”

This permalink structure allows you to have keyword loaded into the URL of your post. Since the category that you’ve placed your post under usually related to the post title, you will have the extra SEO benefit. Your page tend to rank higher in search engine.

In order to change the default permalink structure, you need to go to “OPTIONS -> Permalinks” in your admin panel and paste this code into the BOX after “Custom Structure:”

/%postname%/%category%/

I use postname before category because I believe post name will have the keyword that we will be targeting. I put the more important before the less important
