[...] One of the most important things that needs to be done is to change the permalink structure of the blog to some much more natural than what comes pre-configured in Wordpress. It is very easy to change and only takes a second. By changing the permalink structure to include the actual postname in the URL, it will be indexed much cleaner in the search engines, and will be indexed with the post title as the page title. Jonathan at Weblog Tools Collection has a great writeup this exact topic. [...]

I agree about using the permalink redirect plugin for anyone thatâ€™s used the default link structure (or any different structure) for any amount of time. Potential readers really donâ€™t like 404â€™s

Andy: Performance issues with Wordpress? I haven’t heard of that ever being an issue, but I’ll run it by the developers to see if that’s true or not.

Denis at Semiologic normally suggests including date or post number in any permalink otherwise it can cause performance issue

Great article.
I agree with Lucas about using the permalink redirect plugin for anyone that’s used the default link structure (or any different structure) for any amount of time. Potential readers really don’t like 404’s.

Using Permalinks won’t help much too.
Look at the head tag , a Description , Keyword and Abstract is just as important to rate yr site. An ACRA will get it further.

I use like http://www.azrin.net/yikes which looks like a static page *(%postname%) as that carry a higher ranking. Also a MetaTag for the individual post also carry more marks as the engine will see what your relevancy tags in relation to the url and content.

That’s my 2c worth, and if you are porting over, don’t be lazy and just port by SQL, switch yr Technorati and ping tools on , and manually insert each and every one of them. After that, you can back date them. Seems that the spiders love you for posting 300+++ posts at a short. Time consuming….but it works!*(or use a RPC TOOL)

If you do need to change your permalink structure after going with one that didn’t work for you (I changed mine from date-based archives to just the post name), I would highly suggest this permalink updating plugin: http://www.deanlee.cn/wordpres.....on-plugin/.

You just enter your old permalink structure, and it automatically redirects to the correct new permalink. No messing around with redirects.

It took me a while to come to a correct permalink structure and I was first devestated I was using the /P=12 style when I first built my blog.

Once I learned the permalink customization, combines with plugins for making my post titles more SEO friendly, then it was a home run and now google spiders my posts daily.

Jazzle: I never said that structure was difficult for humans to read, but shorter will always be better for humans.
