The URL structure is something you should care about when installing a WordPress site.
First of all go to Settings -> Permalinks
Once there select Custom Structure and write this in the text field:
1 |
/%postname%/ |
Should look like this screenshot:
What it does is change the way your site is going to work with the links.
Example:
- Before: http://php.quicoto.com/?p=2
- After: http://php.quicoto.com/best-cache-plugin-for-wordpress/
Important Note: I do not recomend to change the URL structure if you are already using a diferent one. You will lose Google Indexing and a lot of 404 errors. If you really need to you can install some plugin to manage those redirects.
What URL structure do you use?

Could be worse. At least your url has the Post Title 😉
