How To Change Wordpress Permalink Structure For Better SEO

By default WordPress uses URLs containg a question mark and numbers for your permalinks and archives such as �http://yoursite.com?p=123". In order to increase keyword density of your site for better SEO, You must 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://yoursite.com/yourcategory/title-of-your-post

Click �Update Permalink Structure� to save above setting.

Now you are done.
