Welcome to the February 2007 edition of Wordpress Tips and Tricks.
For the remainder of this month, you will be able to read about or submit tips, tricks, and techniques for creating a powerful content management system using WordPress.

WordPress Permalink Structure

By default WordPress uses URLs containg a question mark and numbers for your permalinks and archives such as “http://yourdomain.com?p=123″. In order to optimize your blog for maximum keyword density, a good idea is to change that setting to a custom permalink structure.

In your WordPress admin area, click “Options” and then click “Permalinks”. Select “custom” in the Customize Permalink Structure area and in the box next to “custom” enter this: /%category%/%postname%
This will create URLs for your permalinks and archives that would look like this: http://yourdomain.com/yourcategory/title-of-your-post
Click “Update Permalink Structure” to save this setting.
