Today I am answering some more readers questions like I have been for the last week or so! Lets get right into the question as I hate to waste your time and I know you all are busy as am I!
The Short Question: I am using WP 2.5.0 and want to rewrite my blog pages. I want seo friendly URL like testblog.com/mypost “don’t want like testblog.com/p?no1″
The Long Answer: First of all I want to thank you all for reading my blog and asking such great questions! Keep sending them to me and I may answer yours on the blog or I will email you back instructions to help with your problems!
Here is a short tutorial type post to help you accomplish the above question with ease in Word Press! This technique makes the urls of your blog SEO friendly which in the long run will help you gain serp positions and power overall in your blog!
Step 1 – First you need to load up your /wp-admin panel and login to it, you will spend all your time in the WordPressAdmin Panel to create the seo friendly urls.
Step 2 – Next click on the settings link in the top right of your WordPress2.5 admin panel. If your using an older version of wp then 2.5 I suggest you upgrade right away!
Step 3 – After your in the admin settings panel you can click on the Permalinks settings menu, notice the red arrow below, this is where we will make the change for the seo urls!
Step 4 – Now that we are to the permalink settings we need to type a custom structure in the custom structure box. Simply put “/%postname%/” in the box (without quotes) and scroll down to the bottom of that page and click save changes!
And that’s it, all your worries are complete and now you have a seo friendly URL blog!

I did step 4 with my blog. I think WordPress should make it like this by default because showing the post number has negative SEO effects and is not informative to people looking at the link, if it is shared on a website etc.
Good tutorial. But I have one question. I’ve recently taken over a blog that has poorly written urls (eg. /archives/123) but some of them have some great PR. How do I do it so the PR stays the same? I know this can be acheived – I just don’t know how!
