Tips To Optimizing Your Wordpress Blog
Over the next couple of days I will be going through some easy quick fixes you can make to your blog in order to get a higher ranking in the major search engines and get more traffic overall!
Tip of the Day Number 1 : Using Custom Permalinks
What is a Permalink?
Each blog post is assigned their own permanent web site address (URL), this a called a permalink. This link is automatically generated when you publish a new post. The default permalink in Wordpress looks like the following:
http://yourdomainname.com/?p=100/
where the p stands for post, and the 100 is just the ID that is assigned to that particular post.
However, in Wordpress you can customize your permalink to be more search engine friendly!
